And hide the Facebook friends who rattle on incessantly about it every frigging Wednesday night?

No! I've only just learnt what TOWIE stood for and now there's another acronym to deal with!

YANBU to dislike a TV show - everyone has different taste.

No idea why you would want to watch women give birth - it's the sort of thing that you are forced to watch in school, not the sort of thing that people generally choose to watch.

I watched the first series but cannot be arsed any more. Birth stories are like travelling stories to me. Something i avoid at all costs!

Saucer of milk for kennyp!

I can't stand the programme, and that makes me 'mean'... sod the sisterhood of shared experiences.

Just don't flick between Masterchef and OBEM, strange combination.

I know a woman who smells absolutely fishy. If you stand downwind of her you'd have to move, or faint. Shes due in sbout three weeks. Good luck to that midwife. Honestly, this woman absolutely honks.

I couldnt do it nor would i ever want to. And with music and cooking o levels only i dont think i am in a position to apply.

It's very moving though. The episode with the woman with special needs had me in tears. This is the only series I've watched, if that makes it better.

i bet with this and call the midwife there'll be a massive upsurge in applications for midwifery places. they should show an hour's worth of writing up notes or emptying catheter bags or doing a conveyor-belt antenatal clinic or getting lost/parking tickets trying to do community visits so people have a more realistic idea of what the job involves!
