Episode 7: Episode 7

Summary

Joyce receives confirmation of a disciplinary hearing following Bernie Midgely's complaint, and despite Sister Julienne's support she fears she could lose her job, home and everything she has worked so hard for. The midwives help a family with a history of drug addiction, Dr Turner and Shelagh take the final steps in May's adoption and Trixie is desperate for a ticket to the royal premiere of the local movie Bronco Bullfrog

Review

David Brown

There has been debate of late on our Feedback pages concerning a perceived streak of sentimentality in Call the Midwife. Some aspects to this criticism I agree with, particularly when it comes to the opening and closing narration, which can be treacly. And, anyway, why is an older Jennifer Worth commenting on events when her younger self left the series years ago?

But, often, there’ll be a storyline that’s as far removed from the maudlin or mushy as it’s possible to be. Take the case in tonight’s episode of Jacqui Berridge, whose use of heroin could end up impacting the health of the baby she’s expecting. Steel yourself for some disturbing imagery as Jacqui’s attempts to free herself from addiction takes her to some stark, dark places.
