Description

Emma will reach out to parents-to-be across the UK whose birthing plans have been thrown up in the air by lockdown. She'll get to know them virtually, before asking them to turn the camera on themselves and film the stress, the drama and the joy of bringing new life into the world in the midst of a pandemic. And once restrictions are eased, Emma will travel to meet the families in person to find out how they're getting on. From elective caesareans to hypno-births, complicated theatre procedures to water births Emma Willis: Delivering Babies in 2020 takes the natural drama, intensity and emotion of childbirth and turns into a piece of bold, intimate and heartfelt television.
