One Born Every Minute

TV celebrity Myleene Klass opens a new birthing pool and causes a stir on the maternity ward. Delivery Suite Manager Gail Wright has to rehearse her speech and gets all in a dither but Myleene is charming. Meanwhile life in the hospital goes on as normal with three very different characters. Air hostess Helen (38) and boyfriend Alan (34) are about to surrender their lifestyle of partying and traveling. She suffered kidney failure after binge drinking in Thailand and decided it was time to sign up for motherhood. They’re having twins – two boys - so the transformation in their daily life is going to be dramatic. Natalie (24) and Trevor (38) are having their third baby – but their relationship has been decidedly rocky. Four years ago they had a fling and when Natalie said she was pregnant Trevor refused to acknowledge baby Chelsea as his own. Two years later he saw his daughter’s photo on Facebook, realized his error and asked Natalie to have him back. Lorry driver Trevor has terrible teeth and it affects his speech, he’s also 12 years older than his partner but the relationship seems to work and he regards himself as happily settled. Diane Nelson (43) and Hassan have been together for six years. She is American and he is Turkish. Diane’s having a duala called Leslie to assist with her birth because Hassan says Turkish men don’t normally attend births and he doesn’t seem very interested
