The Call The Midwife finale had viewers 'in tears' with its emotional storyline, prompting an outpouring of praise from fans impressed by the heartwarming season finale.

In last night's episode of Call The Midwife (which aired Sunday, 2nd March 2025), we saw Nurse Nancy Corrigan (played by Megan Cusack) return to the BBC drama.

In an emotional rollercoaster of an episode, Nancy's pregnancy is revealed before the nurse enters early labour, with Roger Noble (played by Conor O'Donnell) by her side.

Later, the two marry, surrounded by family and friends in an unexpected and heartwarming twist.

Fans were quick to comment on social media on the emotional scenes, praising the 'perfect end' to the season.

'There's no doubt that @CallTheMidwife1 remains to this day the BEST programme ever! Filled with emotions & love. A perfect end to a fantastic series! Massive shout-out to everyone involved,' wrote one fan on X (formerly Twitter).

Meanwhile, another wrote, 'CallTheMidwife finale was epic. Cried happy & sad tears. Storytelling at it's finest.'

And another said on the social media platform, 'That was a rollercoaster episode to close the current series. Let’s hope the BBC have a rethink and don’t ‘rest’ the programme. It’s part of Christmas and gets us through the dark nights of winter.'

And another wrote, 'This weeks call the midwife episode had me in tears the whole way through, what an episode.'

And another wrote, 'In my view series 14 has been the best one so far, powerful and sometimes sad stories, beautifully written, and the acting by everyone has been first class, sometimes when series go on for a long time they lose there magic but not Call The Midwife it just gets better and better.'

While another Call The Midwife fan quipped, 'People who get through an episode of call the midwife without at least tearing up are stronger than the SAS tbh.'

It's clear the season finale of Call The Midwife didn't disappoint. Stay tuned for news on the next CTM series!
