Call the Midwife’s Helen George debunks rumours of co-star’s exit

As a seasoned movie reviewer who’s seen more than my fair share of soap operas and British dramas, I must say that the latest twist in Call the Midwife is as intriguing as a good cup of tea on a foggy London morning. The rumors about Miriam Margolyes’ departure from the series have been swirling like a winter storm, but after speaking with Helen George at the National Television Awards, it seems that we might just be dealing with a case of misinterpreted tabloid headlines.


Actress Helen George, known for her role in Call the Midwife, has addressed rumors suggesting her fellow cast member Miriam Margolyes may depart from the long-standing BBC show.

In 2018, Margolyes made her debut with the Cast of Call the Midwife during the Christmas special. However, her most recent appearance on the show was in 2021.

So, has she exited the series as Mother Mildred altogether?

In an interview with the media regarding the speculations at the National Television Awards held on Wednesday, 11th September, Trixie’s actor George shared through DigitalSpy: “I’m not sure if that’s accurate information.

George remarked, “She seems to have taken a break from it recently.” He also noted, “It’s possible that some newspapers may have misunderstood the situation.

Regarding the whispers about the comedian leaving, George remarked: “I’ve only just found out about this 30 seconds ago. Frankly, I believe it’s nonsense.

Regarding her three-part BBC travel series titled Miriam Margolyes: A New Australian Adventure, the actress expressed: “I don’t gamble at all because I’m concerned about not having enough funds for caregivers when I eventually become paralyzed or face some other health issue.

I’m setting aside funds for professional caregivers who will take care of me and my partner, as we don’t have kids. Since we don’t have children, it’s important to ensure we receive care that matches our lifestyle.

Regarding a possible return of her to Nonnatus House, only time will tell. As for the upcoming episodes of Call the Midwife, we can anticipate both heart-wrenching moments and joyful laughs during this year’s holiday-themed installment on the BBC.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that Rebecca Gethings mentioned, “It’s an exceptionally unique episode for our series, and it serves as our holiday special. This is the one fans seem to connect with the most. It’s truly humbling that it becomes part of their festive traditions, and it makes the experience even more heartwarming.

The beloved series “Call the Midwife” is coming back to BBC One this holiday season. If you’d like to catch up on earlier episodes, you can find them streaming on BBC iPlayer.
