Call the Midwife Season 4 Episodes

9 Episodes 2015 - 2015

Set in 1960, Season 4 adds several new staff members to the Nonnatus House team, including young nurse Barbara Gilbert (Charlotte Ritchie), who makes a memorable first impression due to one too many drinks with Trixie (Helen George) and Patsy (Emerald Fennell); and veteran nurse Phyllis Crane (Linda Bassett), whose attitude is somewhat off-putting. Among the season's stories: Sister Julienne (Jenny Agutter) is unsure how to react when she learns that a potential benefactor was a pre-convent boyfriend of hers; the House is divided after an expectant father is caught in flagrante with another man; Sister Winifred (Victoria Yeates) attempts to teach prostitutes about safe sex; Trixie's romance with Tom Hereward (Jack Ashton) takes several unexpected turns; Dr. Turner (Stephen McGann) misreads the cause of a child's injuries; and a mix-up pairs new parents with the wrong babies.
