    I did, a bit - but something I also thought was an interesting detail was the other nuns' heartbreak at the idea that a post mortem would harm her in the afterlife. I don't know when Christians stopped believing that, but it's probably correct that it was after Vatican 2.n

    Vatican council 2 rulings don't apply to Anglican nuns though.

    I expect they might have something nasty planned for that miserable head nun. Reinstate Sr. Julian!

    They showed a soft side to her last week, when she was kind to the little boy.

    Maybe she's one of those 'bark is worse that her bite' types. Nurse Crane was a bit of a dragon when she arrived, and now she's the salt of the earth.

    Glad to see Trixie will be back next week.

    I wouldn't say mother nun will last long. There could be a mutiny soon

    Just watched last night's episode. Each series gets better imo. Trixie is back next week ðŸ˜

    They're really trying hard to make sister ursula unlikeable.

    Just watched Sunday's episode. Very emotional, sadness and happiness and sadness again. I felt so sad for Dot - the adoptive mother.

    And finally we get find out about Mary Cynthia!

    Can't believe last night was the finale already. I was an emotional wreck throughout most of it. But it was nice to see a happy ending for so many of the characters. It's a long time until the Christmas special!

    Ah god the bit where they were getting all excited about this new "thalidomide" medicine for morning sickness was heartbreaking!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,088 ✭✭✭stargazer 68


    Had the last 2 episodes recorded and watched them both this morning! Cried through both of them. Good job I'm on my own today!

    Just watching this on Netflix now, it's super. Really enjoying it. Though Jenny does annoy me, and Dr. Turners wife is very wooden.

    The actress who plays Trixie's pregnancy is very noticeable

    Wow, long time since this was updated.

    Yeah, talk about contriving a temp exit. Even the time off in the programme matches the RL time off, 6 months. :pac:

    One side view looked particularly noticeable. Maybe she's comfort eating after breaking up with her boyfriend :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,088 ✭✭✭stargazer 68


    Never noticed it last week but really obvious in this weeks episode. Sister Monica Joan is starting to get right on my proverbials!


  • Registered Users Posts: 166 ✭✭xavier8228


    Poor Barbara! I hope she pulls through.

    I text my mother to see had she watched it yet but she hadn’t so I just said its dramatic. That was when Phyllis was in the fire.

    Then I text her OMG it’s so dramatic!! at the end. My poor heart couldn’t take it! 😂

    I only started watching Call the Midwife over Christmas. Last night I finished watching all five series on Netflix. But I’ve got a problem.

    Am I right in saying that the current series on bbc is series seven? Where can I get series six? Or how do I find out when it’s coming to Netflix?

    Just checked there and there doesn’t seem to be a date yet. Might be the summer

    Proper sad that episode.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,046 ✭✭✭Wellyd


    I didn’t need that this morning. We are losing midwives from this so often.

    I think that HEARTBEAT killed off at least two G.P.s and a few police constables......
