'Call The Midwife' Season 8 Latest News, Update: Coming to Netflix, Not Ending Soon

“Call The Midwife” Season 8 is expected to arrive on Netflix soon, so anyone who wants to binge on this fan favorite show can do so in the near future. It has also been reported that, while the show will eventually end, there are no plans to do so anytime soon. As such, fans can expect this show to go on for quite some time yet.

As Business Times reports, this is one of the most popular British shows today and “Call The Midwife” Season 8 has been especially shocking for the fans and the cast. After all, this is when Nurse Barbara (Charlotte Ritchie) died in a disheartening manner. On the other hand, the cast is taking solace in the fact that her spirit remains with them.

The show’s creator Heidi Thomas did touch on the matter of the possible end for the series. As a hugely popular show, it’s no wonder that viewers would want to continue watching episodes long after “Call The Midwife” Season 8. The next installments of the series will be coming out this yet, but it is still expected that it will end someday.

Fortunately, this end will not be coming anytime soon, especially with Thomas saying that there is still a lot that the show has yet to explore. When the last episode of “Call The Midwife” Season 8 came around, the timeline was closing in on 1985. This is the period when the ninth season will be coming out.

“We’re commissioned up to series nine by the BBC, and we may well continue. And, if we did, there seems to be no limit to the interest and excitement of the world in the 1960s,” Thomas said to Radio Times.

“I do know that the original nuns on whom the original books were based left Poplar in 1976, because the social and the medical climate had changed. They relocated to Birmingham and focused more on spiritual work. So I don’t know how far into the 1970s we could go.”
