A great episode and a fun reference to the time period with the World Cup. The storylines were well developed and flowed easily back and forth. Lovely heartfelt moments as always.

World Cup fever

Nice, but a tad predictable

Warning: Spoilers
Last week mental health, this week sexuality - this show certainly is clever in the way it covers issues in the 1960's that still are relevant today.
The Trixie storyline feels a bit signposted in terms of the direction it's heading, and if anything she's become a bit like Bellamy in 'Heartbeat' - surrounded by a revolving door of endless new recruits and perhaps a bit forgotten in the process.
Lots of nice moments here, and wasn't it a joy to not hear that Nonnatus House might be shut down for a change?!
As ever Judy Parffit steals the episode.

Suffer from Dry Eyes?

Warning: Spoilers
I think there's a medical condition that causes ones eyes to be dry. "Call the Midwife" is a treatment for this. This episode, in particular, was one of many that was good for that, from the kid's parents reaching out to him to Cyril's gift to Lucille.
