As card-carrying members of the WGBH Drama Club, we have to admit: we are low-key obsessed with MASTERPIECE’s 2020 lineup. Okay, that claim may not come…

Every season, the Drama After Dark team gathers ‘round the conference room table to watch the latest and greatest in British dramas. We're thrilled to be bringing you coverage of perennial PBS favorite, Call The Midwife. This show has everything: hard-working nurses, sassy nuns, and gut-wrenching emotional trauma that somehow keeps you wanting more. I’m here to recap the season as it happens just in case you, dear reader, miss an episode and haven’t yet been able to catch up on WGBH Passport.

I’m a latecomer to PBS’ Call the Midwife, a show that follows the lives of nurse-midwives, some of whom are nuns, serving the poverty stricken residents of the East End of London following World War II. When WGBH’s Drama After Dark team decided we would cover Call the Midwife for our next season, we set out to complete a somewhat daunting but ultimately enjoyable task: to binge-watch eight seasons of the beloved show in about a month.

They tell me this is the final episode of the season. Am I ready to acknowledge that fact? Absolutely not! Charlotte takes to the beach to process Sidney’s declaration from last episode — and maybe in hopes of "gathering some shells"? No judgments here! She gets back home in time to see an awkward-looking Sidney and Tom, who is positively thrilled that everything is finally going so well with Sanditon. Undeterred, Charlotte stops by to visit Georgiana and tries to convince her to reconsider her whole "I'm the founding member and president of the I Hate Sidney Parker Club" thing. Charlotte's evidence: he’s nice, he bought out Otis’ debts, and he’s tender!
