A Patrick and Teddy moment in the aftermath of the accident.
I’ve wanted to see more Patrick and Teddy interactions. And I wondered if Patrick’s PTSD would re-emerge after the accident. Plus, I’m head-canoning that Patrick makes fried bread late at night for all his kiddos at least once! 😆
During their engagement, Patrick and Shelagh take some quality time together. A romantic stroll through the city leads Shelagh to confess a long-held dream.
Just a bit of romantic fluff, set during Patrick & Shelagh’s engagement. I thought they deserved a night out!
“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
Fred Rogers often told this story about when he was a boy and would see scary things on the news: “My mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers — so many caring people in this world.”
Well, I’ve seen the series finale. Not without reading spoilers first – anyone who watched it blind has my true respect!!! Here are a few of my thoughts, on the finale and the series in general:
I did go in blind. Not a single spoiler, not one speculation. *And* I had plans that kept me from watching until after the episode premiered to watch!!!
In previous seasons—say for example s3 (the first one I saw as it premiered)—I would have chewed off my foot to escape anything that kept me from watching as soon as I could. This season I didn’t even think of changing my plans. Though I was not expecting much (foreboding ravens and no kisses aside), I was very pleased.
Yes, it’s gone a bit soapy, and there’s been a lot of repetition (remember how the little twin was buried in another’s coffin back in s4e2?), but I love how Call the Midwife keeps trying to be a force for good in the world.
