Olly Rix told
RadioTimes;
"I’d made an agreement. Anyone I knew that could help me with this, I pulled to one side and said, 'Look, I don't want to see Helen. I don't want to see the dress. I don't want to see Helen [the] morning of'."
He told the crew that he didn't want to arrive to set at the same time as Helen. He also told them that he didn't want to see the actress get out of the car.
"I did everything I could to see Helen for the first time pretty much when she was walking down the aisle, which was nice."
Rix has swiftly become a Call the Midwife fan-favourite. Viewers were overjoyed to hear that he will be returning for series 13.
As will his on-screen partner Helen George.
Call the Midwife airs on BBC 1 at 8 pm tonight.
