  1. Y e s!!! Y e s!!! Y e s!!! I almost missed this!!! Thank you so much, David, for posting this!! I and other fans had been checking the main Facebook site page for days on end. The above finally appeared yesterday. And my fave couple to boot!!! Nurse/Midwife Shelagh (former nun Sr Bernadette), and husband Dr Patrick Turner, GP and gynaecologist, with their 2 (adopted) daughters, albeit missing are their sons. Both Shelagh and Patrick been in it since it began. To me, theirs is the best love story the show has had (apart from former vicar and late nurse/midwife wife, Barbara). Call the Midwife is the best show on tv. Shocking/yet also memorable and unfair situations, (and sad/tragic) cases; brilliant actors, performances, guests, storylines, depiction of how life was in late 50’s/60’s, in LondonEastEndand as mentioned, now heading to the 70’s. The sets, costumes, medical equipment used, food, furniture, vehicles 2nd to none. They deserve all their awards and more.
