Doctor Turner’s family, including his wife, Shelagh Turner (Laura Main), and son Timothy Turner, will also return (Max Macmillan). Stephen McGann, who plays Dr. Patrick Turner, told the Radio Times (opens in new tab) that there might be more familiar faces coming back to the show: “I can say that starting with the Christmas special, some familiar characters from the past come back in a very moving way.
“I think it draws again on its history, but as usual, there’s a lot of happiness at Christmas. But it also has a great story and making it has been a lot of fun.
Will Trixie Be Back for Season 12 of Call the Midwife?
Yes! It was announced earlier this year that Helen George, who plays Trixie Franklin and is a fan favorite, had started filming again after taking a break from the show in the middle of Season 11 to have her second daughter, Lark.
When we last saw Trixie on screen, she had put her new relationship with Matthew on hold so she could take care of her dying aunt in Italy. But Trixie will be back, and it is thought that she will be back for the Christmas special in 2022. Does this mean that Trixie and Matthew can continue their relationship from where they left off? We do!
What Happened at the End of Call the Midwife Season 11?
In the second-to-last episode of season 11 of Call the Midwife, a massive train crash put Dr. Turner’s and Sister Julienne’s lives in danger. Fans were on the edge of their seats as they waited to find out what would happen to the two main characters, Dr. Turner and Sister Julienne.
