What to expect from Call the Midwife season 15
Filming is currently underway on the new series, which returns to screens with a two-part Christmas special in December and eight new episodes in January 2026.
The festive special is set in both Poplar and Hong Kong, with senior members of Nonnatus House flying across the globe on a mercy mission, leaving the younger nurses to hold down the fort in London.
Meanwhile, Sister Julienne suddenly finds herself “excited about the Order’s future”, according to the synopsis.
“After years of battling change, she decides to embrace it, work with it, and see what love can do. This change of energy reverberates throughout series 15.”
The new season opens in 1971, with several ladies embracing Women’s Lib and burning their bras outside Nonnatus House. As always, viewers can expect the show to tackle a range of topical issues, including premature birth, placenta previa, kidney cancer, tuberculosis and slavery.
Call the Midwife will return with a Christmas special, followed by series 15 in 2026.
