Helen George has put to bed rumours of her exit from Call the Midwife, after the season 13 finale threw doubt on her character's return to Poplar for season 14. [...] Since March, there have been plenty of rumours around whether George would remain the series, and when asked the question by virginradio.co.uk, she certainly put those rumours to bed.
"I was always planning to come back," she put it simply.
She continued: "And I guess it's quite a return for Trixie, because she's coming back sans-husband, so that's an interesting twist."
Call the Midwife star Helen George has responded to claims that her co-star Miriam Margolyes could be leaving the long-running BBC series.
Margolyes first joined the Call the Midwife cast in 2018 in the Christmas special but was last seen in the series back in 2021.
So, has she exited the series as Mother Mildred altogether?
Well, speaking to press about the rumours at the National Television Awards (NTAs) last night (Wednesday 11th September), Trixie star George revealed (via DigitalSpy): "I don't know if that's the truth."
"I just think she's not been in it for a while," George said, adding: "I think some of the tabloids might've got the wrong end of the stick."
On the rumours of the comedian's exit, George said: "I literally just heard that 30 seconds ago. I think it's b*****ks [bollocks], to be fair."
RadioTimes.com has reached out to the BBC for comment.
