I would probably cry too, but she needs to go, she has a great back story though. Love Trixie she's the only original midwife left isn't she, not sure what happened to sister Mary Cynthia.

I've taken to watching old episodes, was so bored with last nights I almost switched off. Its a shame as it was a superb show. I'm hoping SMJ gets killed off this season. I presume Trixie will get with the widow and the private hospital will be involved in a scandal, I mean its about time something good happened for her but its all tied up in much sadness and pain. The Turners are sickly sweet "oh Patrick!"

I too think Trixie will hook up with the widow
 
Did mary cynthia not stay at the home of all the kids where may came from and the vicar is supposed to be coming back
 
Mary Cynthia was attacked and ended up needing psychiatric help and I *think* it was implied that she’d left the convent/sisterhood as she didn’t want to be addressed as ‘sister’ at the end of her storyline And that was that.

I think Trixie will get with the widow too. I hope she does anyway. I think he’s very fit. 😆

Also, how smug was Dr Turner toward the end with Sister Julienne? Omg, just the look on his face makes me want to give him a smack in the chops, basically telling her ‘ah I told you so’. Arse.

I rewatched the documentary last night. there’s some real heart warming stories. But showing old episodes made me realize how good it used to be. Even the filter they used was a lot more blue to give it a colder/ harsher feel. Now it seems everything is colourful and bathed in yellow. And don’t get me started on Dr Turner, he just acts himself. He was exactly the same in the documentary as in the show
 
I can’t watch it anymore, it’s just too sad and depressing. I’ve de-series linked it, such a shame. I know it seems dramatic but Ive given it a long chance since last Xmas & I used to love it...It reminds me of Hartbeat/Casulty - not in a good way.

It was supposed to be about having babies and some social context/history. It’s lost all of that. It dismal and twee, sanctimonious and depresses for the sake of it. I don’t even like the direction of the midwife characters :(
