Call The Midwife star Georgie Glen reveals how a heartbreaking twist reminds her of her late mother
Talking to The Express, the Call The Midwife star said: “What’s lovely about the character is she’s not just two-dimensional, there is a whole person there with a past – and I often liken her to my mother, actually, who lived in that sort of age at that time.
“And the funny thing is, I remember her coming out with something about her past when I was in my 20s.
“My father had had a stroke and was in hospital, and it was that first night when you’re all slightly electrified and you’re waiting to hear what’s happening, and you speak in a very unguarded way.”
The BBC star added: “And she talked about her past and a bit of me thought, ‘I don’t want to hear this, I don’t want to know,’ which is selfish, and I wish I’d engaged a bit more with it because she wanted to tell me something, and I was dealing with dad. But that came back to me [when filming the scenes] because we are capable of burying things so deeply.”
While the details of the twist involving Miss Higgins are yet to be revealed, Linda, 74, who had a great time filming for the scenes, said: “I have a lovely story at the end of the series with Miss Higgins. We love doing stuff together Georgie and I because it’s…old friends is not something you often see.
She added: “We have a beautiful story. I love it.”
Call The Midwife concludes on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on March 10.
