Fans who have taken part in the tour were keen to recommend it, with one person commenting: "I've done the tour, it was amazing and I was lucky enough to be there while they were filming. Would highly recommend this tour to any call the midwife fan." Another person added: "We did this tour 3 years ago before the joys of COVID when international travel was easy and we Australians could come to old Blighty with no worries.
"We loved the tour and now every time I watch Call The Midwife or any other British show, I recognise parts of the dockyards we saw. I may have even spied a section in Downton Abbey?"
