BBC Home Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of Call the Midwife: Season Two, the next entry in the critically acclaimed BBC/PBS series. The second season of Heidi Thomas' period drama stars Jessica Raine, Pam Ferris and Helen George, and is set to arrive on Blu-ray on May 21st.
Official synopsis: Based on the bestselling memoirs by Jennifer Worth, Call the Midwife follows Jenny Lee (Raine), a young midwife in 1950s London's working class East End, providing the poorest women with the best possible care. Season Two continues to follow Jenny and the other midwives as they deal with all the problems the neighborhood of Poplar has to throw at them. A fascinating portrayal of birth, life, death and a community on the brink of huge social change, Call the Midwife offers a gripping insight into a way of life that is so drastically different from how we live now.
Cover art has been finalized. Special features include a series of "Cast and Crew Interviews." Call the Midwife: Season One was released in November 2012. Season Two is available for pre-order.
another nice British show, I was surprised that season 1, and now 2, get a Blu-ray here in the US but in the UK it's DVD only.. usually the other way around.
