Binge Watching Call the Midwife

Don't you just love it when you find a series that is so interesting you just want to watch more? That is what has happened to me with Call the Midwife. My friend recommended it to me years ago but I never picked up on it. One day I watch an episode on PBS and I was hooked. Unfortunately, it is year six so I had a lot of catching up to do with the midwives. I have been watching it on YouTube and now I am at the beginning of year 3. I love this series, if you are looking for a look back at what life was like in the late 50s and early 60s in the East End of London, this series certainly brings it all to life.

@BelleStarr I watched the first episode of Call The Midwife, sometimes I have problems understanding what they are saying because of that English accent, I will try a few more episodes, I like it so far.

I know how you feel! I recently started watching Once Upon a Time, an ABC TV series on Netflix. It's so good. I love finding a great series like you have also.

I might have to give this one a try on our Dragonbox. It allows me to check out older programs and be able to binge watch all of the Seasons and episodes from start to finish if I want.

It is a very good show and if you haven't watched The White Queen and the White princess, I suggest them as well.

It's like me with Royal Pains. I think the two brothers are too much @BelleStarr , they fascinate me. Enjoy catching up with Call the Midwife.
