Miranda Hart was in disbelief as she was reunited with her former Call The Midwife son years later. Liam Kiff was just a baby when he played Fred, the comedian’s character Camilla ‘Chummy’ Fortescue-Cholmondeley-Browne’s child on the BBC period drama. Now much older, Miranda gasps and puts her hands on her mouth as he surprises her on Saturday’s Michael McIntyre’s Big Show.

Liam was brought on stage by Michael, 48, for the segment Recognise Me as Miranda, 52, pondered over his identity. ‘Do you know what the first thing that’s come to mind is? And this may be really weird if it’s right, and also really weird if it’s wrong, you weren’t a baby in Call The Midwife?’ she says from the gallery. As the audience bursts into cheers and applause, Miranda jumps up from her seat and gasps.

The TV star is then asked whose baby Liam played in Call The Midwife and she first responds: ‘Oh you weren’t Chummy’s breach birth?’. It then dawns on her he played Fred and she shrieks: ‘Not my baby?!’. Miranda announced she had quit Call The Midwife in 2016 after joining the show in its first season in 2012 due to other work commitments. On X, she said: ‘News: it’s with a heavy heart that having shared Chummy’s return to CTM, I’ve not been able to birth (pun) the schedule to make it work. xx’.

Miranda later landed her first Hollywood role in comedy action movie Spy alongside Jason Statham, Melissa McCarthy and Jude Law. Her film role came after she started her career in BBC sitcoms including Hyperdrive and Not Going Out before her semi-autobiographical sitcom Miranda hit screens in 2009. Last year, the Smack the Pony star revealed she had secretly tied the knot on The One Show while promoting her memoir-cum-self-help manual I Haven’t Been Entirely Honest with You.

‘I got married!’ she declared, as she moved a ring from one of her right fingers to her left. ‘I can now say that someone put a ring on it,’ she added as hosts Alex Jones and Alex Scott applauded and cheered. ‘I got married at 51. It’s just so lovely. I’d written Gary for on screen Miranda, and it wasn’t until I was 49 that I met my person.’. Miranda has not revealed the identity of her new husband but referred to him as ‘Mould Man’ or ‘The Boy from Bristol’ throughout her book.
