It has been reported that Miriam Margolyes, a beloved actress on the hit show Call The Midwife, has decided to leave after six successful years. According to a source, the 83-year-old will not be reprising her role as Mother Mildred due to her busy schedule with other projects. This news has left fans heartbroken, with many expressing their disappointment that the show will not be the same without her.
Miriam first joined the show in 2018 for the Christmas Special and made her final appearance in 2021. She has been a national treasure on the show, playing the lovable character of Mother Mildred. However, her decision to leave has not come as a surprise, as she has had a packed schedule over the past few years. Along with her role on Call The Midwife, Miriam is also known for her roles in the Harry Potter series and The Age of Innocence, for which she won a BAFTA.
In an interview with RadioTimes, Miriam shared her reasons for taking on multiple projects, stating that she wants to save up enough money to ensure she and her partner are taken care of in the future. She explained, "I'm worried that I won't have enough money for carers when I finally get paralyzed or whatever it is that's going to happen to me." Miriam has been diagnosed with spinal stenosis and underwent heart surgery last year, so she is aware of the importance of planning for the future.
Fans have expressed their disappointment on social media, with many tweeting about how much they will miss Miriam on the show. Some have even shared their personal connection to her character and how she has made an impact on their lives. It's clear that Miriam has become a fan-favorite and her presence on the show will be greatly missed.
Call The Midwife has been a successful show on the BBC for over a decade, and Miriam has been a valuable asset to its cast. The show follows the lives of nuns and midwives in Nonnatus House during the 1950s and 60s, dealing with complex medical issues. The show, created by Heidi Thomas, is based on the memoirs of Jennifer Worth, who worked as a district nurse and midwife in the East End of London during the 1950s.
As of now, there has been no official statement from Miriam or the BBC regarding her departure. But fans can still catch her on the show by streaming it on BBC iPlayer. The Agency has reached out to Miriam's representative and the BBC for a comment.
