Whilst Jennifer Lee's storyline makes it clear what her reason for leaving is, I nonetheless think it is a great shame she was never mentioned again given that the series is supposed to be her memoirs. I note Vanessa Redgrave's narration stopped using "I" in all subsequent episodes.

Having headlined a major BBC series it is good to see the real life actor has continued her career after failing to leverage that to break into US films. Intriguing that Karen Gillan managed to successfully leverage her Dr Who fame to make the US breakthrough a few years after Jennifer Lee's attempt.

Yes

Im on my 4th rewatch of the show. And every time i cry my eyes out over Mrs Jenkins's story 😭 She's such a cute little lady and everything sister Evangelina and nurse Lee are doing for her, it's all just 😭😭😭 It's not often tv shows or movies bring me to tears, call the midwife really do, but nothing has me crying more then the Mrs Jenkins episode

I think we can all agree that Sister Ursula is one of the most irritating characters, I get why she’s the way she is but to me there’s nothing redeemable about her and I was glad she wasn’t in for very long

I am now in the initial stages of adopting the wiki. I have been given temporary administrative capabilities, so the navigation bar is finally updated (yay!) and I've been doing a bit of housekeeping. As always, please reach out if you have any suggestions, questions, or concerns. <3

Hi all (Ben),

I've been interested in adopting the wiki for a while so that we can better maintain the wiki, such as updating the navigation features and such. I've been working to establish a consistent schedule of editing and am doing my best to make meaningful contributions for the long-term. If anyone has any objections to me adopting the wiki, please reply here. All the best!

The page, Wiki-navigation MediaWiki page, Needs updating to have the newer seasons (10 and 11) on it

After an almost year-long hiatus I am finally all caught up and can get back to editing the wiki! I didn't realise how hard it would be to keep up from America but I'm glad to be back!

If I'm able to get in touch with the head admin, I hope to become an admin soon now that I can get back into the swing of editing!

As I've been browsing and editing I've been thinking of ways to streamline categorization of characters. I think that the "Minor Characters" category should be limited to characters who appear in more than one episode to keep it relevant. And we should maybe add a "Mothers" tag in addition to the patients tag, I know I've seen that idea thrown around but can't quite remember where. I'm also tempted to revise "Males" and "Females" to "Men" and "Women" as, ironically, the former feels too cold and clinical. Also, in light of the intersex character in Series 9, more relevant. If you agree/disagree/have other suggestions please leave your thoughts below!

My favorite part of call the midwife is the intersection between grief and joy that is shown. The trauma that can come from life and the love that comes after and with it. There's a humanity in this show that I haven't seen anywhere else, thank you to everyone who adds to this wiki so I can come back and read about my favorite episodes!

You would have thought they would have brought Jenny & Chummy back to attend the funeral for Sister Evangelina. Too bad they didn't.

So at the end of Series 4, Dr. Turner prescribes Distival (Thalidomide) to Rhoda Mullucks, who in Series 5 gives birth to a baby, Susan, who has birth defects, which we later find out were from the drug. Also in Series 5, Ruby Cottingham's baby is born with even worse defects than Mullucks. At that time, Dr. Turner does some research and considers some unlikely link to radiation. Later in Series 5 (Ep 8) They get word about the drug being immediately recalled. But when Dr & the nuns are meeting with Rhoda about this, they talk as though she might have gotten the drug from her sister, not as prescribed by Dr. Turner. They never even mention that. Why? Seems like a big mistake.

If anyone knows I will be very grateful.

In season 5 episode 2, sister Evangelina reads a prayer. What is the name of the prayer? where can i find it?

What episode did Sister Monica Joan talk about ending up like Lots wife?
