Call the Midwife

[ilovecarbs90]

Is back 18th April. I'm so glad we are getting a series this year, I find it such great escapism.

Is anyone else a fan?

I fear that Timmy will be imprisoned in the TTSD* if he goes anywhere near Michael.

I predict the Turners will not be so accommodating if it concerns one of their own.

Shelagh will be pedalling furiously and muttering about papilloma...

*Turner’s Teal Sex Dungeon

Stop stop. I don't know if I want to laugh or cry at the thought of Dr Turner and Shelagh getting fruity.

But I do know that Nurse Crane would not approve of the public discussions of their private life. Of course she'll accept that they have a teal room of pain. But they don't need to discuss it!

I read your post in my head with her voice… 😂

Of course she'll accept that they have a teal room of pain. But they don't need to discuss it!

Nurse Crane would have to sit down if she ever heard that Miss Higgins frequented TTSD every Tuesday.

Dress Code: wipe clean

Ah no!! I'd managed to block out the memory of the Turner's sex dungeon.

I'll need therapy again.

I know that it was not uncommon for a nanny to nanny multiple generations but the actor looked far too young to have nannied the widower.

As for Shelagh and Dr T. I don’t want to think about that.

@Rosebearx 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤️❤️It me in bits oh dear howls. You’ve made my day .

@SheldonesqueTheBstard

I’m not being funny but I think I’d have to fight Lucille for Cyril. I’d want to feed him some pies though for I am fat and I’d squash him.

I think Trixie is about to get flattened by the widower.

Not as much as I fancy flattening Shelagh. Nippy sprout. Calling out Nancy for her ‘mistake’ and the patient transferring to St Cuthberts.

Aye lass. You devoted yourself to God and then went to feck a doctor. If that wasn’t enough of a ‘mistake’, you chose ^that* doctor.

The only thing I have in common with her - apart from being a Jockanory - is the garden chair. Though technically they were my nan’s ones.

I like Nancy at the moment. She’s not sooking lemons and acting holier than thou. Predictable story about the delivery.

shelagh, I hope you go into Timmy’s room and find your carefully bound copies of the Lancet with pages stuck together at the mere mention of a genital.

For if I have to look at their smug coupons for ever more then surely I will be in travail.

I loved Phyllis snoozing through the football.

Poor Fred and his minimiser...

The Michael story broke my heart. It is still a bloody stigma for some.

I can’t be arsed with DrT’s retrospective progressiveness but I thoroughly believe Phyllis being so forward thinking.

And SMJ finding her faith once more.
She will be on nodding terms with St Peter shortly. Meanwhile she looks beautiful in the glow of her faith.

But the placenta thing also made me cry for so many reasons.

My Mum saw the garden loungers and recognised them as ones we had when i was very small...

My nan also had a teal back lobby.

For those of a nervous disposition, that is not a euphemism.

Where were they hiding the bedroom they gave Nancy? They have two midwives sharing small rooms, talking last week about not having a mattress for the curate... But new trainee nurse gets a massive room?

(Anyone else get the feeling the poor girl wants to break free of nuns?)

At least student Midwife didn't have to share with earnest curate.

I presume the new trainee is part of the fee paying money making scheme though. I don't know where the room came from but presumably they had to provide decent accommodation to justify the cost.

Just catching up. Shelagh is just so smug. In work. With her family. With the nuns. I've really started to dislike her.

She could have used her luxury room for the birth of the baby, not turfed poor old Sister Monica Placenta out of her bed.

But I suppose then she wouldn't have been present for the faith restoring miracle of birth with Nancy Sinatra.

All a bit clunky.

I think SMJ is on the ground floor though.

So is Nancy in SMJ's old room upstairs?

Or was more of a plain 'cell'? I can't remember.

@eggandonion

Where did he go?

Earnest Curate must be in the attic ruminating on his synoptic gospels.

Shelagh is a clype.

Just as well she’s in Poplar.

She’d have had a skelp on the airse in this house for clypin.

What is a clype? I'm sure she is one, I am from Belfast so the skelp on the arse is dead on.

Shelagh tells on people.

Ah, she's a tell tale tit.
