Only a few things in life are guaranteed. Thankfully, one of them is a Call the Midwife special every 25 December! Sisters Julienne and Monica Joan return, as do Nurses Crane and Beatrix, in a 90-minute episode that’s the epitome of holiday spirit. We’ll explain here how to watch the Call the Midwife Christmas Special 2020 online from anywhere in the world - including for FREE in the UK and the US!
Although candidly depicting life in East London in the 1960s, the Christmas Specials are never less than heart-warming. Last year’s episode, which saw communities up and down the country help Reggie (Daniel Laurie) break the Guinness World Record for the longest Christmas paper chain, inspired tears and cheers in equal measure.

The Call the Midwife Christmas Special will be broadcast at 7.40pm Christmas Day on BBC One, and runs for approximately 90 minutes. If you’d prefer to watch it online, you can do so live or on-demand via BBC iPlayer. It's completely FREE TO USE in the UK (but you should have a valid TV license). Spending the holidays abroad? With the help of a good VPN, you can still partake in the charitable cheer of Nonnatus House no matter where you are.
This time, a travelling circus brings jubilation to Poplar. Led by ringmaster Mr Percival (Doctor Who actor Peter Davison), it heralds excitement, new friendships, and new experiences for the community. There are reunions too – Gloria Venables is back, who we saw last in season 6 – and we’re waiting for Cyril to pop the question and ask Lucille to marry him already!
Meanwhile, Sister Monica Joan has a health scare, and, as you’d expect, there’s a complicated birth or two. But it’s in the show’s darker moments that the kindness and warm-hearted nature of the characters really shine through – and that leave us with an all-over Christmas glow.
Plan on spending the holidays at Nonnatus House? Then read on as we explain how to watch the Call the Midwife Christmas Special 2020 online, and stream this beloved BBC show for FREE in the UK, US, and also from anywhere.
