'Call the Midwife' Recap: Season 8, Episode 5
Last time on Call the Midwife, we witnessed a family reconciliation and the tragedy of a woman driven to a fatal decision. All that and Phyllis and Sgt. Woolf’s art exhibition outing gone awry can be reviewed right here.
This week in Poplar was a busy one as well! Dr. Turner and company began a new, potentially life-saving cervical (serv-EYE-cal) smear clinic, after a shaky start Sister Frances presented her first Mothercraft class and Sister Monica Joan played Cupid. And did you happen to notice there was so much stylish smoking the episode started to resemble a cigarette commercial?
Before we get to the patients of the week, let’s discuss Nurse Crane’s car trouble. Her Morris Minor is not getting the job done these days and finally gives up the ghost all together. Sgt. Woolf offers to drive her on her rounds and she hesitantly takes him up on the offer. Once in the car, he makes it clear (in a gentlemanly way) that he would like to spend time with her socially. This flusters the usually unflappable Phyllis and she exits the vehicle without addressing his request.
