Call the Midwife star Laura Main talks being 'taken over' in new role amid career change

Call the Midwife star Laura Main recently wrapped series 12 of the beloved Midwifery drama and the star is already focusing on the next big project in her career.





The actress, who plays Shelagh Turner in the BBC show, is appearing on stage to star as M'Lynn Eatenton in a theatre production of Steel Magnolias, but it seems that the actress won't be appearing in the role for long as she's now revealed her part will eventually be "taken over" by someone else in just a few months' time. Appearing on James Martin's Saturday Kitchen, Laura was asked by the chef and TV host about how she's appearing in the role for three months, to which she confirmed and said: "And then someone else is taking over."


She added: "But that cast is yet to be announced. I don't know who's taking over. So I'll go back to Call the Midwife and we'll start series thirteen."


As Laura mentioned, filming for Call the Midwife series 13 will start soon, as the show has been recommissioned for a Christmas special this year ahead of the new series in January 2024.Making the announcement back in early 2023, Heidi Thomas, the creator behind the show, said: "Call the Midwife is the pride and joy of all who work on it, but it's our fantastic, loyal audience that matters most.


"We are a family behind the scenes, on the screen, and in front of the telly, and I'm thrilled that we're all heading into the 1970's together."
