What else is happening in the Call The Midwife Christmas special?
Other pictures – shared in the Radio Times – showed Trixie (Helen George) standing in front some sparkly Christmas lights.
Hopefully we’ll find out what happened to her and Matthew, and whether a romance blossomed.
We also see an image of Mother Mildred (Miriam Margolyes) who was absent in series 10 but looks to be making a return for the special.
At the end of that series Lucille and Cyril announced they were planning a Christmas wedding.
With another image of Fred smiling in a Christmas market, let’s hope it’s joy and peace to all men and women in Poplar this Yuletide.
Another December baby on the way…
There may be more good December news for one of Call The Midwife’s stars.
Helen George – who plays Trixie – is due to give birth to her second child in the Christmas month.
However, despite an avalanche of congratulations when she announced the news on social media, she admitted she was “terrified”.
Helen and husband Jack Ashton already have one child, daughter Wren, who was born in 2017.
