Sunday’s (January 19th) Call the Midwife episode featured actress Lisa Coleman in a guest role.

Viewers likely best know Lisa, 54, for her role as Cam Lawson in The Story of Tracy Beaker.

Cam was a struggling author who eventually finds success and also later becomes Tracy’s (Dani Harmer) adoptive mother.

Lisa originally portrayed the fan favourite character from 2002 to 2005.

However, she has reprised the role in spin-offs Tracy Beaker Returns, My Mum Tracy Beaker and The Beaker Girls.

Call the Midwife viewers were thrilled to see Lisa’s appearance, as they shared reactions online.

One wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “OMG ITS CAM FROM TRACY BEAKER #CallTheMidwife.”

Another added: “The irony of Cam being a horrid social worker, the irony isn’t lost on me #CallTheMidwife.”

A third shared: “Cam from Tracy Beaker in tonight’s Call the Midwife. #callthemidwife.”

A fourth chimed in: “Cam from Tracy Beaker !!! #callthemidwife.”

While a fifth remarked: “It’s cam from Tracy beaker #callthemidwife.”

In the story, viewers were introduced to first-time mother Norma (Alexa Davies) and her husband Don (Garmon Rhys)

A devastating twist saw Dr Turner (Stephen McGann) explain the baby had a blister loaded with spinal fluid a sign of spina bifida.

The distraught parents learned their daughter would therefore require surgery.

Realising they couldn’t provide for her needs, the pair considered putting the baby in the care system.

Call The Midwife: A breakdown

Call The Midwife first came onto the airwaves in 2012 and has been seen by millions. But what is it about?

Series one: Set in early 1957 and it explored the ‘Baby Boom generation, which included themes of poverty and post-war immigration.

Series two: Set in 1958 and it showed gas and air being introduced for pain relief for the first time. It ended with the Nonnatus House building being condemned.

Series three: Set in 1959 and it depicted gruesome conditions such as cystic fibrosis, polio and it showed the midwives in the context on prisons.

Series four: Set in 1960 under the threat of nuclear warfare and the emergency response guidelines issued by the local Civil Defence Corp. Other themes included LGBT rights, and syphilis.

Series five: Set in 1961 and it shows the care of patients with conditions such as Typhoid and strokes. We also saw the effects of thalidomide, the introduction of the contraceptive pill.

Series six: Set in 1962 and domestic violence was at the centre of the season. Other themes included FGM (female genital mutilation), mental health issues and interracial marriage. It was also notable for the introduction of Reggie, a recurring character with Down Syndrome.

Series seven: Set in 1963 and we see Nurse Lucille Anderson for the first time. We also see the show address conditions such as dementia, huntington’s disease, leprosy and meningitis

Series eight: Set in 1964 and it bravely covered the issue of abortion, which was not legal for another three years in 1967. Sickle cell disease, cleft lip, cleft palate and intersex people also featured.

Series nine: Diptheria was at the centre of the ninth instalment in 1965, and it was notable for featuring a blind expectant mother. But the role of Nonnatus House within the community also came into question.

Series ten: Set in 1966, Nonnatus House has a rival in the form of the private Lady Emily Clinic in Mayfair. PKU, diabetes and the controversy surrounding abortion were central themes.

Series eleven: Set in 1967 amid the housing crisis and a scabies epidemic. The show was rocked by a train crash right next to Nonnatus House.

This was where Lisa’s character, social worker Miss Jenkins, entered the picture.

She explained how resources were too stretched to make an intervention.

As a result, the midwives had no other choice but to contact a local orphanage for baby June’s care.

Call the Midwife airs on BBC One and iPlayer.
