Believe it or not, we’re at the half-way point of Call the Midwife Season 9. This week, Sister Julienne’s quest to keep Nonnatus House relevant results in ruffled feathers and close quarters. Fred and Reggie befriend a man whose passion has made him ill and Valerie attends a tricky delivery with a trainee doctor in tow.

The Junior Doctor Experiment

We are reminded, as Sister Julienne reads an ominous letter from the council, that Nonnatus House is on the schedule for urban renewal demolition in the near future. Therefore, she’s a nun on a mission when she approaches Dr. Turner with her idea to keep her midwives relevant and the maternity home in business in these changing times.
