COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Excellent! submitted by gardenfaerie on August 17, 2017, 6:31pm Love this show. It is poignant, touching, sad, funny and happy all at once. I have no interest in midwiery or any kind of medical scenes but still find the show heartwarming and enjoyable.

Entertaining submitted by DL on August 2, 2018, 8:02pm Great stories of midwives in the 1950’s.

Love it! submitted by kate uleman on August 30, 2018, 11:04pm This is a great show about on-call-midwifes in England in the mid 19 hundreds. they experience many adventures and have fun and joyful moments. The show also goes into their personal lives. This is a sweet, sad, happy, joyful, over-all-amazing show. I recommend this for 11 or 12+ if they are mature kids, the show has some intense scenes. I think a over all rating is 14 or 15+. Enjoy!!!!
