Based on the memoirs of Jennifer Worth, Call the Midwife follows Nurse Jenny Lee and the midwives and nuns of Nonnatus House as they work to provide the best possible care to the expectant mothers of Poplar.

In series one Jenny Lee (Jessica Raine) gets her first job at Nonnatus House and as she begins to care for her patients, she gradually becomes accustomed to her new environment, making friends with fellow midwives Cynthia (Bryony Hannah), Trixie (Helen George) and the clumsy Chummy (Miranda Hart).

In series two, it's 1958, and while Jenny has her hands full dealing with an abused patient, Trixie and Sister Evangelina (Pam Ferris) are forced to board a Swedish cargo ship to tend to the captain's pregnant daughter. In the Christmas special, the discovery of an abandoned baby on the convent's doorstep proves to be a catalyst as the community come together to try to trace the child's mother.

Series three is set in 1959, and shows Jenny facing some tough personal and professional challenges. There are changes too for Chumny, as she settles into motherhood and for Sister Bernadette now known as Shelagh (Laura Main) as she prepares to marry Dr Turner (Stephen McGann). At Christmas, when an unexploded World War II bomb is found, the nuns, midwives and dozens of local families find themselves homeless, whilst we also see the heartbreaking effects of polio on the local community.

The fascinating portrayal of birth, life, death and a community on the brink of huge social change, Call the Midwife offers a gripping insight into a world that is so drastically different from how we live now.
