One Born Every Minute is scheduled to air at these times (may include spoilers):
The fly-on-the-wall documentary turns its attention away from Liverpool's mothers-to-be, instead focusing on the roles the various boyfriends, fiances, partners and husbands play in the labour suite. Super-organised Paul, a risk manager by trade, impresses midwives when he plans out every detail of his wife Nadine birthing experience, right down to the music. Meanwhile, young parents-to-be Bobbilee and Frankie, who had only known each other for a month before Bobbi became pregnant, have a much more laissez-faire attitude to labour, one which is put to the ultimate test after 48 hours at the Women's Hospital. Finally, 32-year-old mum Linda faces bringing her baby into the world without the aid of her partner Tony, whose traumatic past experience of hospitals means he won't be accompanying her to theatre
Rhiannon, who has cystic fibrosis, prepares to risk her life to have a third child, while an unexpected turn of events during labour means Kirsty and her partner, retired soldier Ian, must alter their birth plan. Plus, single mum SammiJo relies on her mum to help her bond with her second baby in a way she couldn't when her first child was born

Three more sets of parents-to-be arrive at Liverpool Women's Hospital to welcome new additions to their families, including 29-year-old Kate and her 32-year-old husband Pete, whose short-term memory was damaged following a hard-fought battle against meningitis and encephalitis 10 years earlier. The pair hope Pete's brain injury will not stop him from being able to recall this memorable moment in the future. Also featured is third-time mother Lisa, whose previous two labours only lasted six and four hours respectively, and former drama school student Hayley, who already has children with her other-half Stephen, and has resolved to appreciate every moment with her family after losing her own mother at an early age
Midwife Linda Abbott comes out of retirement to return to Leeds General Infirmary, while two fathers with very different attitudes await the arrival of their newborns. Joel dotes on wife Rachel and the couple grow more anxious with each day on the labour ward, having lost their first son who was born prematurely. Meanwhile, Chris admits he doesn't have a clue what to do in his role as birth partner, and his attempt to use humour to deal with his nerves fails to go down well in the delivery room
The midwives at Leeds General Infirmary deal with a September baby boom and have to send some of the expectant mothers to St James's Hospital across the city, which means a last-minute change to birth plans for those affected, like first-time mum Rachel. Natalie and Shane also have to be transferred to a different maternity unit, while Kate and David experience a long wait for her Caesarean due to the number of emergency cases going to theatre
