Emma Willis returns to the hospital ward for a fourth series of Delivering Babies

For the last three series, Willis has trained and worked as a maternity care assistant at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Essex. She has worked shifts varying from eight to thirteen hours, changed sheets, taken blood, and assisted in childbirth; sharing with viewers why working in maternity is such a mixture of reward, hard work and challenges.

In her last series, she had a new added obstacle: coming back to work at the hospital after the pandemic, and exploring the world of homebirths.

Anyone can be anyone in The Circle, but when the aim of the game is to gain popularity, some are not who they seem.

The problem was that it lacked the cash to do so.
