On Dec. 29 at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT (times may vary) PBS will air the Call the Midwife Holiday Special.

The program is airing in advance of Season 3 of the drama series Call the Midwife, which will return in the spring. Based on Jennifer Worth's best-selling memoirs about the world of midwives in London in the 1950s, the series completed Season 2 in May.

The special will be set in the East End of London in 1958 and the lives of the midwives are anything but calm.

"Call the Midwife has established itself as a favorite among PBS viewers, and we are thrilled to offer fans a new episode before the premiere of the third season this spring," Beth Hoppe, chief programming executive and general manager at PBS, said in a statement. "We are pleased to continue our partnership with Neal Street, and are excited to see what the holidays have in store for our friends at Nonnatus House."

but, I believe this Special may be a repeat...not sure....last couple shows have all been repeats. Seems like there were only 6 episodes in the last aired season. I could be wrong...it all went by so fast!

I sure hope this special is repeated before the new season begins...I'll never get the the tv away from football today, but maybe PBS will be playing it again this week.

I do think some of the fake pregnancy bellies look completely over-exaggerated.
