| Summary |
This entertaining BBC series follows the experiences of 12 expectant couples, as first time fathers get a crash course in pregnancy, labour and birth. In episode one, we meet hot-headed Adam and squeamish Callum, both of whom are given an education they will never forget by their midwives Fiona, Kate and Helen.Laura is desperate for Callum to be a support in the delivery room but he is disgusted by the entire process. Stress-head Adam is put to the test by midwife Fiona who, with a simple birth and pregnancy quiz, stumps the clueless dad-to-be with the most basic of questions.To help prepare these fathers for what's ahead, the midwives throw them in the deep end and give them both the responsibility of looking after a robo-baby for 24 hours.As the due dates close in, the midwives need to perform miracles with both fathers in order to make them useful on delivery day.PRODUCTION DETAILS:A BBC Production. Series Producer: Lucy Shepherd. Executive Producers: Rachel Arnold and Elliot Reed |
