News summary

The BBC's beloved period drama Call The Midwife, which has aired since 2012 and earned numerous awards, is set to conclude with its 15th series in 2026, according to multiple insider reports. While the final season will wrap up storylines for the much-loved characters, the BBC has reassured fans that the show will remain a central part of its offerings through upcoming projects, including two Christmas specials, a film set in 1972, and a prequel series set during World War II. The prequel aims to explore the Blitz years in East London with younger versions of familiar characters, promising new storylines inspired by true events. Despite sadness among cast and crew about the series ending, there is a hopeful sentiment about the spin-offs continuing the legacy and even the possibility of future specials reviving the original series. The final season and specials will explore social changes in the early 1970s, including Women’s Lib and medical challenges faced by the midwives. Fans have expressed strong emotions about the news, but the BBC emphasizes that the Call The Midwife universe will continue to evolve and engage audiences for years to come.
