Yaa for the Ace scenes!! But he is so chatty now, he is taking over the scene! Such a cute little man! MB is such a bad actor, did he totally miss his cue when to slam his hand on the desk?? Even SB stopped like he knew that wasn't the right timing but then just kept going. But I guess bad acting MB fits with off-his -meds-acting-erratic Sonny. ETA: how many weeks pregnant is Kristina supposed to be? Is she going to have a giant baby like Esme did?

I had the feeling that there was no babysitter, which if that's the case, that's just negligence on Finn's part. Finn had said yesterday that the baby sitter had to leave at midnight (?) , (some specific time) and when he and Chase arrived, he commented that they were 20 minutes later than when the baby sitter had to leave, I didn't catch his excuse for being late.

Do they actually have music playing or is each actor dancing to whatever music is in their head? I always chalk it up to that.

She said something about leaving Ireland. I forget what exactly, but it made the cut. Cyril said he was going to check with all the Irish families in the district. The boys didn't say a peep so how he knew they were Irish?? I don't think the letter included their last name. I thought the older boy might run up to his mommy when they were reunited but I guess you can't depend on little kid actors. That wee baby girl was gorgeous though. Trixie looked amazing in her pantsuit and it sounds like she really planned it out for the car pick-up lol. I'm miffed that I missed the shout out or the Canadian Air Force exercises!

We may be looking at this from a 2024 lens were we have all probably had swimming and water safety education.(Although Fred the safety guy should have been on it, I agree) But even these days children drown every year at pool parties and beaches because people assume because lots of adults and lifeguards are around that the kids are safe. As a lifeguard - in-previous -life , I go nuts at pools and beaches at how inattentive some people are with their children. Drowning can and does happen so quickly. Yaa I am better than I thought!!

Another day at the beach in England LOL! That's why the beaches of Turkey and Croatia etc are full of Brits with really bad sunburns (in my experience no offence to British people)

I don't want to defend these scenes because they were really bad, but as a PSA I will say she was floating on the Lido and they can get out far really fast if there is any kind of wind or current. And some kids seem oblivious to water temp if they are having fun.

Armchair diagnostician here too, but I didn't think of delayed drowning, just pneumonia from water aspiration. I thought syphilis too for a second (not sure if they did the preventative eye drops then) but then guessed correctly the retinoblastoma. I can totally appreciate how children in a crowd can drown and it happens quite often but how these scenes were filmed were so badly and so fake it really took me out of the story. Plus it took me half the episode to figure out what a lido was. The sneak peak from the week before was Teddy asking his mother why she was sewing him a dress, and then PBS cuts that scene 🫤 I hate what they are doing with Trixie. If Mr Trixie actor wants to leave the show then just don't write storylines with him. Have Trixie stay at Nonnatus house 3 nights a week and mention his name a couple times and focus on her as a competent midwife. Or kill him at the next Christmas special.

How many pairs of overalls does Sasha own?

Since a wedding is coming up, and I might not be around here for the wedding I wanted to post that, for the first time in my life, I actually was at a wedding where the officiant asked the "is there any reason for these 2 not to be married" question. It was a civil ceremony with an officiant and he kind of made a joke of it. I was half expecting someone to barge in because that is what I am accustomed to from watching SOAPs 😅

I watched this episode the evening of the total eclipse in my area. The moon landing was totally a bigger thing but similar vibe. I can't believe Trixie would make a mistake like that no matter what. .

Good thing because that did not happen, maybe you had Drew and Nina on your bingo card😅 Seriously though I thought the desk sex happened a little too fast and I wish it wasn't contingent on Nina's begging to be close to Willow, but oh well it was something different on this show,that's for sure. I hate that Ava has just turned into a sculker in Sonny's house. Kristina clocked her serving Sonny a drink at least. I like bangs, wish I could get my bangs back but didn't like Ava's.

There was also a good dose of Dante being sweet giving his donut choice to Scout.

yes I should have said *could* be fun They definitely need to flip the script and give Nina the upper hand here, because all Drew's arguments are stupid and make no sense.

Looks like they are trying to build up this bantering relationship between Drew and Nina, which is fun and different, except the dialogue is so stupid. The storyline was stupid when Nina constantly was putting her self in situations for Carly's rants and now she is in her office taking this crap from Drew, who would ever do that? They can banter but change the topic!!
