The BAFTA-winning maternity documentary One Born Every Minute continues tonight, Sunday 8 November 2026, at 9:00 PM GMT on E4.
After an eight-year hiatus, the hit fixed-rig series has returned with a brand-new series chronicling the raw, emotional, and unpredictable moments of childbirth for a modern generation of parents.
Whether you are looking up where the new series is filmed or where to catch up online, here is your complete guide to tonight’s episode.
Where is One Born Every Minute filmed?
The 2026 series of One Born Every Minute is filmed on location at St Mary’s Hospital in Manchester.
