Asked about Call the Midwife's success, Helen recently told Radio Times: "There's nothing else like it. It's in its own little bubble."

She added: "Does it get the accolade of other shows? No, it doesn't. But that's OK. It's a quiet hero."
Teasing her character's storyline in a social media video, Helen stated: "Episode One is very exciting for Trixie, as she gets to go to the Lady Emily clinic which is a private clinic in Chelsea to observe how their systems work, and how the midwifery is in place which is a more doctor-lead delivery process.
"The thought is that Nonnatus House will rent out midwives and nuns, to the Lady Emily to help out - to staff the clinic, and in return they'll get a monetary fund, they'll get paid so Nonnatus House is saved."
