Emma Willis is back on the maternity wards after three-year forced break due to the Coronavirus pandemic and she's ready to help with delivering a new lot of babies.
The popular series, which made its debut back in 2018, saw The Voice host join the staff at a busy maternity ward as she learned the ropes and saw how demanding a midwifery job really is.
But now Emma is returning, fresh from her refresher training, to make new friends on the show and deliver more babies.
Ahead of the new series, producers have teased, "Her colleagues have faced two challenging years during the Covid-19 pandemic, ensuring that they provide high quality care whilst keeping everyone safe.
“Emma will need some refresher training to bring her back up to speed on her duties as an MCA and, now that her pals Val and Nagmeh have retired, she’ll have to make some new friends and show her bosses that she’s got what it takes."
The show's synopsis added, "“As well as working on the ward, Emma will be experiencing what it’s like to work in the community with home births, plus she’ll learn more about one of the most difficult aspects that the maternity team deal with – providing support to expectant mothers and families who lose their babies.”
