[BrightnessFalls]

well, I will do for the next six weeks

oh- he's crying!

Oh my oh my why did they not try to revive that baby, didn't they do that then, how many weeks ,

Oh oh he's crying

Floods now oh...

poor Conchita

I've read the book and preferred it tbh.

Ooh dear.

Who let me watch this ?

Yes clawdy it's replacing my downtown fix.

Not sure my pg hormones can take this.

The book is fab and yes the Spanish lady did have that many children, only the middle/ upper class trained as nurses and midwives so hence the accents, the author Jennifer worth also wrote another book called shadow of the workhouse which is alot darker and sadder IMO

Matchmakers anyone?

Could never be a nun

Can't sing

where's Miranda?

Yeah everyone is too clean I agree

jenny agutter still has that softy honey voice she had in logans run

It's funny watching this with dh. He had no idea about the shaving and enemas and he got v upset when he thought Conchita might be going to die.

She's in episode 2 Sparkling.

And conchita and her husband didn't have the luxury of their own bedroom if I remember rightly

iis the book based on actual happenings?

Thanks Zuzu. This is making me want to turn up the colour and brightness on the TV.

I expected the accents. Im enjoying it. Its better than Heartbeat!!! I havent read the book, its not something that would interest me. My mum enjoyed them though.

Yes, the 50s were in sepia and black & white

The baby actually looked like the father!!!

Oh, there's Miranda!

Yay. Miranda! 'Arse first'

Omg I didn't realise the author had passed away
