There are few taboos Lena Dunham doesn't tackle in her show Girls. But a birth is definitely something we haven't seen. While promoting her new book Not That Kind of Girl in London this week, she (maybe) revealed some spoilers for Girls season four.
"I started watching Call the Midwife this past summer because I was actually researching for a scene in Girls—spoiler alert—because there are these really great, explicit birth scenes on the show," she said. Call the Midwife is a British show about 1950s midwives in the poorest part of London.
Fellow writer Caitlin Moran was at the event with Dunham and surprised her friend by inviting some of the Call the Midwife cast to sit in the audience. Dunham didn't say which character will have a baby, or even if it's one of the main four girls. There have been pregnancy scares, of course, but so far Girls hasn't had to deal with the dreaded unwanted pregnancy. Season four is still in production.
