Gillingham

As you walk around Chatham Dockyard – with a costumed midwife leading the way – you'll recognise the streets and buildings that have been used to portray the area around London's Poplar Dock in the show. See sites like the Lisbon Buildings, the exterior of the London hospital, the entrance to Doctor Turner’s surgery, and the areas where Thames dockside scenes were filmed. 

You won't run into Miranda Hart and Jenny Agutter, but you'll have your very own 'midwife' to fill the gap and share and fascinating anecdotes about the filming of the show and behind-the-scenes facts.
