Christmas Special 2013

Summary

It's Christmas time in Poplar and love is in the air as Jenny's relationship with Alec continues to blossom, while Shelagh is planning her quiet wedding to Dr Turner. However, the peace is suddenly disturbed when the police arrive at Nonnatus House to announce an unexploded bomb has been discovered just around the corner and everybody in the district is being evacuated to safety. The electricity has been cut off and the streets are pitch-black, and with the locals scurrying to safety, the nuns and nurses reach out to anyone in need of medical help. The spirit of the Blitz takes over as the community's members pull together - aware that, at any moment, their homes could be reduced to rubble. Jessica Raine, Jenny Agutter, Pam Ferris and Laura Main star in a festive special of the 1950s-set drama, with a guest appearance by comedian Sandi Toksvig
