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.

And Fred can be Max.......

And Tim is perfect for Ralph... I can see him turning into a snitching Nazi!

There IS something about Dr. Turner I reckon he's sexy. Yes Shelagh would make a good Maria. I like this thread even more now it's gone SOMish .

And I'm casting Violet as that woman at the Music Festival who can't stop bowing!

I've never seen sound of music

riviere Do CTM do Children In need? Someone needs to tell them we've written their sketch ! It would be brill. Chummy must be the bowing woman Pebble21 or the housekeeper, like Mel in the Xmas Live SOM.

Need a Liesl though......Cynthia!?

I like Chummy for housekeeper (Frau Schmidt)... she needs a more central role!
And I like Cynthia for Liesl, she has the right innocent appeal.
Not sure what we do with the rest of them though?? - There aren't enough roles to go around! We still have Barbara & Tom and Patsy & Delia to fit on somewhere!??

Dr Turner would need to become a bit more masterful to be Capt VT.

Clawdy and Pebble Is Liesl as innocent as all that ? There are extra parts for nuns and crowds at the ball and concert. Plenty for everyone !

Oh gosh I go a bit hot about Chris. Plummer as Capt. Von T.

Can't Patsy and Delia be Louisa and Brigitta?

Yes yes pebble! Tim is perfect for Ralf!

If Tom can't be the Captain then maybe he could be Kurt with his falsetto singing voice?

Tom does have the looks for Capt VT Anne

He'd need a shave and a bit of a quiff

Yes King! Yes Anne... and they already have the bikes / know how to ride them for the Do Re Mi scene!

All these years I'd thought "Gayorg, that's an odd name." Georg makes a lot more sense. I'm with ppeatfruit on Christopher Plummer as Capt VT making me come over all unnecessary.

Ida oh yes, "Were you this much trouble at the abbey?"

Just realised this thread is almost full, so have made an emergency new thread here:

What decade was it that women began to work after marraige and pregnancy? Was the 70s wasn't it, so a bit off yet?

My mother was working part time in the 1960s.

Sorry, should have rephrased that better - I meant specifically nurses and teachers, those that previously had been banned from working when married or mothers
