call the midwife part 2

[NimbleHiker]

I am setting up the next thread before i forget.

Does Fred ever mention his daughters again after marrying Violet and Reggie coming on the scene? I have a slight memory of one moving to Australia and one turned up and was angry he was remarrying.

I rewatched it all a couple of years ago though I might do it all again soon.

I can't recommend enough @BestIsWest

Although I forgot how much crying there is (that's me crying)

Just sobbed through Frank and Peggy.

The stories are so powerful and beautiful.
And why did they get rid of all the Nuns?
The Nuns singing is just so beautiful and really sets the tone.

Only just catching up now on the final episode.

The priest stood out for me, his voice and tone was so realistic I thought to myself ‘where and how do they find such good actors’. I am not surprised to learn that it was a real priest. It felt like watching a real funeral and brought a stillness to the episode which actually made me sit up on the edge of the sofa to really soak it in.

I am very happy the Mullocks family was brought back to see the series out. I think the Thalidomide story could never have been a passing event in a programme like this, it needed to be a thread that ran through it.

They had managed to secure another three series three years ago, and I don’t think moved to secure anymore after that. So it was a planned ending I believe, it didn’t get cut short.

Sister Evangelina delivered Timothy. She mentioned it in the episode where Shelagh and her were talking about Shelagh being unable to have have children after her tubercolosis.

She said his mother said when he was born ‘’I want you to always be loved.’ I know because I delivered him.’

I have no memory of him mentioning his daughters after he got married.

He never mentions his grand children either. He has several.

I feel like the last season was really rushed !
