Call the Midwife is back!

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

This Sunday (17th) at 8pm on BBC1.

I enjoyed the Christmas special - it was good to see Delia back, and I think there's going to be a nice romance with Tom and Barbara

The - it looks like we are going to get a thalidomide story.

yes from life on mars thank you

Oh no he's going to go in

This is heartbreaking

oh wow they are doing this very well. its so sad.

Heartbreaking

we are so lucky these days arent we. so many scans and checks so at least if there is something wrong you are prepared.

It's awful to think a generation were affected by that awful drug. I had two HG pregnancies and if I had been pregnant back then I shudder to think what would have happened.

Sobbing X

Oh god, that was so moving.

I'm taking medication for nausea now. I'm 8 weeks pregnant. This is awful.

We are so, so lucky these days that things are so much more regulated, and antenatal care is so advanced.

were the 2 women meeting in the cafe having an affair?

Yes

Delia's mother is the very rough woman from Stella. I'm waiting for her to say cocking

Makes you so grateful to have the independence we do today in work, sexuality etc.

I wonder if anything will be mentioned about Trixie's drinking ?

"funny woman" in the keep fit class is pissing me off. Though I suspect I am about to be made to feel sorry for her.

Looks like you're right.

I am hoping Trixie gets the sack.

Ah a big emotional plea from Trixie. All the women of Poplar will henceforth has tight chuffs.

isnt trixie slappable now. I liked her before Strictly.

I feel exactly the same, firefly.

She just loves herself doesn't she.

It seems like it's lost it's way a bit.

Trixie is acting like a right little madam.

Oh that was well done and had me and dh tearing up slightly through it

The baby model was very realistic and it's sad to think that would have been the response of both medical staff and parents

Glad it ended nicely

Do you think there is going to bea big thing with B getting close to Tom, Trixie getting jealous and after lots of tears Trixie and Tom will be back in love and get married because everything Trixie went through with the drinking and whatnot made her realise what was important and be a better person.

I don't think CTMW is the sort of show where someone would make off with her friend's ex.
