On August 16, the show, which has spanned over seven seasons, saw her character emotionally watch her patient realise that her newborn was stillborn.
Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Keddie said it was “confronting” to read the script before she acted out the scenes, but in hindsight, she feels proud as “it’s life”.
The heartbreaking episode which aired last night received a lot of positive feedback from fans online, commending the show’s creators for covering such a taboo yet important subject.
For anyone who missed Wednesday night’s episode, following the stillbirth scene Nina finds out she and her partner Harry (played by Alexander England) are expecting a baby.
