While the new trailer gives fans an idea of some of the storylines taking place in the festive episode, the BBC official synopsis also confirms the return of a beloved character. It reads: "Series 11 begins with a Christmas special set in December 1966. Christmas promises to be a memorable one at Nonnatus House as Lucille (Leonie Elliott) and Cyril (Zephryn Taitte) prepare for their upcoming winter wedding.
"The Nonnatus team are faced with their busiest Christmas Day ever as the Maternity Home is filled with expectant mums-to-be, each with their own challenging case. Luckily Mother Mildred (Miriam Margolyes) is on hand to support the team."
Miriam Margolyes is returning to the programme after being absent from the tenth series. The actress was forced to take a break from the show after COVID restrictions prevented her from travelling back to the UK from abroad to film the series.
