Miranda Hart will not be returning to Call The Midwife despite suggestions from producers that she would.
The actor had been due to reappear in the BBC period drama as loveable midwife Camilla “Chummy” Fortescue-Cholmeley-Browne.
However, she tweeted on Thursday:
Hart quit the show during series four due to work commitments, with Chummy being sent to a mother and baby unit to explain her absence.
She went on to star in action movie Spy alongside Jason Statham, Melissa McCarthy and Jude Law.
But the show’s producers later said that she was returning to the show for series six.
Hart added:
Walter is set to play Sister Ursula when the series returns next year.
