Call the Midwife fans have been given another special look at the Christmas special in exclusive photos released by the BBC.
The Poplar-based show's annual Christmas special is set to be just as emotional as ever with hints that it could be one character last Christmas.
Previously, Call the Midwife revealed that the special will start two weeks before Christmas Day as the midwife prepares to watch Apollo 8 land on the moon.
As the world waits for a man to land on the moon, Sister Monica Joan (Judy Parfitt) shares with Nonnatus house that she thinks it will be her last Yuletide.
Elsewhere, Nancy (Megan Cusack) has decided to stay at Nonnatus House as Sister Julienne (Jenny Agutter) offers her and Colette (Francesca Fullilove) a room.
In new photos from the BBC, Call the Midwife is set to some drama this Christmas as snow threatens to make the festive time dangerous for some.

Stephen McGann, who plays Dr Patrick Turner, previously said that snow would create "high drama", sharing: "So we don't just have snow this year, like I always say.
"It was dangerous snow, high drama where it really affects and endangers people, and affects the plot."
Now Judy Parfitt, who plays Sister Monica Joan, has given Call the Midwife fans more detail sharing: "One should recognise there are a lot of people in the population who are older and just feel that they’re never going to make it through the winter."
Adding: "And this to an extreme extent (means she) feels she's not going to make it through, so it's a matter of everybody pulling together and getting around that."
Hinting at the Christmas special, the Call the Midwife team shared: "December is upon us, the first window of the advent calendar is open, and here at Call the Midwife we begin the final countdown to our seasonal episode!"
Adding: "Over the next few weeks we'll be bringing you all the news and stories from our Christmas Special as we prepare for the most wonderful time of the year. Stay tuned!!"
Fans will be able to watch the Call the Midwife Christmas special on Christmas Day at 8.15pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
