The Leading Ladies: Our Core Call the Midwife Actresses
Jenny Lee: The Indomitable Jessica Raine
Kicking off our list is the woman who started it all, Jessica Raine, the original Jenny Lee. With her warm smile and sparkling eyes, Jessica embodied the spirit of our young, eager midwife from the very first episode. Her portrayal of Jenny's growth and evolution throughout the series was nothing short of exceptional. We still miss her dearly, but her legacy lives on in Poplar.
Sister Julienne: The Steadfast Miranda Hart
Next up, we have the fabulous Miranda Hart, who took on the role of our fearless leader, Sister Julienne. Miranda's comedic background might have had us worried at first, but she quickly proved that she was the perfect choice to helm Nonnatus House. Her Sister Julienne is a beacon of strength, compassion, and wisdom, guiding her team through the best and worst of times.
Trixie Franklin: The Enchanting Helen George
Oh, Trixie, where do we even begin? Helen George has given us one of the most captivating and complex characters in television history. From her early days as the bubbly, carefree midwife to her heart-wrenching struggles with addiction and loss, Helen has brought every aspect of Trixie's journey to life with stunning authenticity. We've laughed with her, cried with her, and cheered her on every step of the way.

Chummy: The Lovable Bryony Hannah
Before she was Chummy, Bryony Hannah was just a fresh-faced actress with a big heart and an even bigger smile. But as Cerise "Chummy" Chapman, she became an instant fan favorite. Bryony's portrayal of Chummy's transformation from a clumsy, eager beaver to a confident, skilled midwife was a joy to watch. We'll never forget her iconic entrance or her enduring friendship with Jenny.
Patsy Mount: The Dashing Emerald Fennell
When Emerald Fennell first joined the cast as Patsy Mount, we were instantly smitten with her charm and charisma. As Patsy, Emerald brought a touch of glamour and sophistication to Nonnatus House, but she also showed us the softer side of this ambitious and sometimes vulnerable midwife. Her dynamic with Trixie was one of the show's most delightful pairings, and we were sad to see her go.
Barbara Gilbert: The Tenacious Charlotte Ritchie
Charlotte Ritchie joined the cast as Barbara Gilbert in season six, and she quickly became an integral part of the Nonnatus family. With her quick wit and sharp tongue, Barbara was a breath of fresh air, challenging the status quo and pushing her colleagues to think outside the box. Charlotte's portrayal of Barbara's growth and self-discovery has been a true pleasure to watch.

Lucille Anderson: The Inspirational Leonie Elliott
Leonie Elliott took on the role of Lucille Anderson, the first West Indian midwife to join the Nonnatus team. Leonie's portrayal of Lucille's struggles with racism and cultural identity has been both powerful and poignant, shining a light on the experiences of Black women in post-war Britain. We've watched Lucille grow and flourish under Leonie's skilled acting, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for this incredible character.
Phyllis Crane: The Unforgettable Linda Bassett
Last but certainly not least, we have the wonderful Linda Bassett, who plays the indomitable Phyllis Crane. As the matron of Nonnatus House, Phyllis is the heart and soul of the convent, and Linda's portrayal of her strength, resilience, and unwavering dedication has been nothing short of extraordinary. From her iconic catchphrases to her fierce protectiveness of her team, Phyllis is a force to be reckoned with, and Linda Bassett brings her to life with stunning authenticity.
