The highest-rated drama in BBC history returns to PBS Presents in March 2013 Less than a year after the first season finale, PBS’s hit series Call the Midwife returns to Sunday nights this spring with an all-new eight-episode season. Fans of Downton Abbey and Mad Men have fallen in love with this candid look at post-war London. In the 1950s, twenty-two-year-old Jenny Lee leaves her comfortable home to move into a convent and become a midwife in London"s East End slums. While delivering babies all over the city, Jenny encounters a colorful cast of women—from the plucky, warm-hearted nuns with whom she lives, to the woman with twenty-four children who can"t speak English, to the prostitutes of the city"s seedier side. Based on Jennifer Worth"s bestselling memoirs, Call the Midwife will continue to delight its millions of viewers in the U.S.
