While some have accused the show of being overly saccharine and a little twee, I totally disagree.<\/p>\n<p>While there are moments of this, <em><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.womanandhome.com\/tag\/call-the-midwife\/\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.womanandhome.com\/tag\/call-the-midwife\/\">Call The Midwife<\/a><\/em> is at its heart, a gritty, feminist powerhouse, shining a much-needed light on issues affecting women and their (lack of) bodily autonomy, choice and available care, both past and present.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-eknVvZhVNhhzAtKTfrCEN3\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-eknVvZhVNhhzAtKTfrCEN3 slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Sign up to our free daily email for the latest royal and entertainment news, interesting opinion, expert advice on styling and beauty trends, and no-nonsense guides to the health and wellness questions you want answered.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"c563aa6c-a69a-4337-b140-6f2869f9234d\">While not everyone gets a happy ending in the show, it&#8217;s true that many do.

If you haven&#8217;t watched <em>Motherland<\/em>, you don&#8217;t really need to have seen it to enjoy <em>Amandaland<\/em>, but it will help. Also, why haven&#8217;t you watched it?<\/p>\n<p><em>Motherland<\/em> came to end in 2022 and is quite simply, one of the most perfectly written, hilarious things to land on our screens, and I promise your life will be richer for seeing it. Despite it being about parents, you also don&#8217;t have to be a mother to love it.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, in <em>Motherland<\/em>, the character of Amanda (Lucy Punch) is the epitome of the person we love to hate. Plus, everyone knows an Amanda &#8211; perfect parenthood is easy for an Amanda.<\/p>\n<p>While she gleefully makes other mothers feel rubbish about their lack of gentle parenting and non sugar-free, Hygge lifestyles, an Amanda&#8217;s total and utter lack of self-awareness is humorously shocking.<\/p>\n<p id=\"d546ff56-742b-4b9b-9389-4786fead554f\">When I heard Amanda was getting her own spin-off, I let out a little scream. And the initial, six-episode run this year did not disappoint.<\/p>\n<p>However, while she remains self-centred and self-indulgent, Amanda faces the challenges of us mortal parents in the show, and there&#8217;s a perfect amount of character development to keep you invested.<\/p>\n<p>The Christmas special will show how Amanda&#8217;s relationship with her mum (a delightfully awful Joanna Lumley,) has built her as a person. Plus, it offers the gift of an <em>Absolutely Fabulous<\/em> reunion in the form of Jennifer Saunders joining the line-up.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s plenty of reasons for you to tune in and I guarantee you will laugh out loud, and marvel at Lucy Punch&#8217;s glorious acting skills. <em>Amandaland<\/em> also follows <em>Call The Midwife<\/em> in the TV schedule, so that&#8217;s you&#8217;re entire evening sorted.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"elk-the-traitors\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-the-traitors\"><span>The Traitors<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout \" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"3015a720-11a8-47b9-b4fe-8bf48c1e1f70\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1920-80.jpg.webp 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1600-80.jpg.webp 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1280-80.jpg.webp 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-768-80.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-415-80.jpg.webp 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-360-80.jpg.webp 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7.jpg\" alt=\"Claudia Winkleman in The Traitors\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1920-80.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1600-80.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1280-80.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-768-80.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-415-80.jpg 415w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-360-80.jpg 360w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7-320-80.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 710px) 670px, calc(100vw - 30px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/4v6z3wgVqZw5b9p6n7sUm7.jpg\"\/>\n<\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>(Image credit: BBC\/Studio Lambert\/Cody Burridge)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"00ee76c9-899f-4fe5-81b6-15640c22e665\"><strong>When is it on TV?<\/strong> Season 4 begins on New Year&#8217;s Day at 8pm on BBC One.
