#Sister Julienne

[the-torchwood-magician]

I want to continue with the sisters but I feel like they'd be the "love the sinner, hate the sin" type and that's just ick.

So I really don't know if I should

I think the only one who'd fully accept you is Sister Monica Joan, because she's older than all of them, she's seen so much, and it really doesn't matter to her

(and we already did Sister Mary Cynthia and Shelagh)

CTM characters and LGBTQ+ identities: what are their stances/are they supportive

S1 Characters

Please note this is my personal take and if you disagree that's fine but please don't come to this post if you're just going to argue with me

Nurse Jenny Lee

Lesbian/sapphic: I think she'd be okay with it. It'll take her some adjusting at first, but given time I think she'll be okay

Lesbians who don't use she/her: might not understand it but if it's what works for you she's chill

Bisexual: "wait hold on I think that's me" once you've explained it to her

Pansexual/polysexual/omnisexual/mspec: "there's more than one kind of attraction like this?" She'd be fine with it

Gay/Vincian/Achillean: same as lesbian

Trans: it'll take her some time, but if she adjusted easily from calling Sister Bernadette to calling her Shelagh, I think she won't have any issues not deadnaming you. Might take a little more effort gendering you correctly, but she tries

Nonbinary/agender/genderqueer/any flavor of not binary trans identities: same as trans. Might struggle a little more with understanding genderfluid peeps

Intersex: I'd love to say she'd be accepting. Maybe later seasons Jenny, but not season one. (I think this was s2) but there was a baby born with CF and she looked so uncomfortable. She would take a long time to understand. She'll want to understand, have a million questions about how a baby can be born like this. Of course it's not always visible or obvious that a baby isn't perisex, but if she were to find out after doing her routine checkups on the newborn. Ngl, she'd probably suggest corrective surgery in instances it calls for it. She means well, but doesn't understand how harmful it is. Even after having it explained. Older Jenny (narrator) would probably understand it better

Xenogenders: she wouldn't understand. She might accept it and say you do you, or might look at you strangely and try to limit her interactions but still be polite to your face and then talk about it with Trixie and Cynthia, wondering how someone could identify like that

Same with neopronouns and they/them pronoun users

I get the feeling she'd have an easier time with binary trans people :(

Asexual and aromantic spec ppl: I think she'll find demiromantic and demisexual and latch onto it. This one I'm sure she'd understand and accept

Every episode of Call the Midwife

Narrator: In Autumn, all souls feel the rot but the rot allows flowers to grow and spring will come again. The war absolutely hollowed out communities but also there was jam. Nonnatus house had nuns in it but they were cool nuns. As the weather turned, those in need were ever more vulnerable and we did what we could.

Trixie: I cannot fix this with rouge, Matthew *perky hair toss*

Sister Monica Joan: Aristotle had heard of glaucoma, why won't anybody listen to me, also I've sat on the swiss roll.

Sister Julienne: Nonnatus house may be repossessed/ demolished/ infested with weevils. Our future is uncertain, but damnit the women of Poplar need us.

The Irish One: I love coloured tights but also I've done the autoclave

Harrowing music begins as we watch an unwed teen mother/ man addicted to meth/ victim of some sort of domestic horror/ woman with pre-ecclampsia

Nurse Crane: There you go lass

Harrowing storyline is briefly featured again but also there's a pregnant dog in Nonnatus House.

Dr Turner: Let's give her Pethidine, also I'm progressive about (insert topical issue here)

Sister Julienne: Nonnatus House is a metaphor for the morals of this country and that's why we're going to the dogs

Random Nurse: Actually sister Julienne I think we should teach teenagers about contraception

Sister Monica Joan: We simply must have compline now

Compline and the harrowing storyline (which has now reached its apex through either a harrowing birth scene or some other medical procedure) are now interspersed in a way that is troublingly close to saying suffering is fine actually because Jesus.

Sheelagh: Oh Patrick

The harrowing storyline is now resolved, often with some more voiceover that references the vagaries of the turning world

Trixie: Matthew, I have solved it. And I have put on rouge. I can have it all except a consistent haircut.

Fred: The dog's had puppies, and this will save Nonnatus house.

Narrator: In the worst and dank places, in the creeping dread of the dark soil and the night loam, even as the rotting leaves seep in, there too is love and life. Also someone had a revelation. The end.

trixie and the other nonnatus nurses: <appear in a newspaper photo wearing leotards at trixie's exercise class>

sister evangelina: THIS IS SCANDALOUS THEY ARE PRACTICALLY NAKED WE MUST PUT A STOP TO THIS SISTER JULIENNE MAKE THEM STOP

sister julienne: well maybe not quite naked but definitely not properly clothed and yes kinda scandalous i agree

sister monica joan: <goes to the class in her habit and then goes out for chips with trixie and the others afterwards even though it's lent and she's supposed to be denying the flesh until easter>

[procrastinatingalways]

Sister Evangelina: Reverend Mother, I have sinned.

Sister Monica Joan: I, too, Reverend Mother.

Sister Julienne: What is this sin, my children?

The nuns look at each other, then reveal from under their robes the bus route map and Dr. Turner's morning rounds list, knowing they have helped their former sister to finally meet with the doctor who loves her.

Sister Julienne and the importance of recreation time

No I will not be elaborating at this time

[causetheturtle]

Don’t know why but I fully believe that Sister Monica Joan has killed a man. I also believe that Sister Evangelina and Sister Julienne helped her hide the body. I have no evidence for this I just feel likes it’s something that happened one time

For the first time in its history, Call the Midwife fans have a two-part Christmas special to look forward to ahead of new episodes in the New Year.

Rather than the traditional 90-minute instalment, the BBC has confirmed that there will be two 60-minute episodes, which will also include a Christmas cliffhanger.

"Who doesn't love finding an extra, unexpected present underneath the Christmas tree?" said creator and writer Heidi Thomas OBE.

"When I was asked to write a two-part Christmas special for 2024, I couldn't resist!"

Executive producer Dame Pippa Harris added: "For the first time, viewers can luxuriate in a two-part festive treat this Christmas. Heidi has created a spellbinding special which I know will delight our loyal fans."

Director of BBC Drama Lindsay Salt hailed Call the Midwife as "one of UK television's most popular festive traditions".

She continued: "And this year we wanted to go even better, with Call the Midwife's biggest Christmas ever!

"Heidi and the team have lined up an absolute treat, with two irresistible episodes packed full of everything fans will love about this very special series at Christmas time."

All of the "well-loved characters" will be back for the two-parter, which picks up in Christmas 1969.

The midwives are "all busy delivering babies and doing the job they are most dedicated and committed to", while Poplar also welcomes a funfair, which adds "a burst of colour and excitement to the frosty landscape".

But there will be challenges, including influenza and the Hong Kong flu, not to mention an escaped prisoner.

As the neighbourhood prepares for a carol concert, "fears grow that he may be in the local area after a spate of break-ins".

Elsewhere, "the Turner children are caught up in the fever surrounding the Blue Peter Christmas appeal to collect dinky cars and scrap metal, Trixie makes a fleeting visit to Nonnatus House and is delighted to see her brother Geoffrey, and Miss Higgins has her grandson Harry stay for Christmas".

Violet also has her hands full hosting a mince pie competition, "but the Buckles' preparations for Reggie’s homecoming are thrown into turmoil".

Obviously have to post my new favourite edit on here too😂

Rosalind and Nancy seek solace with the nuns in the chapel (13.3)

[sisterjulienne]

Sr C: I’m not sure what my interpretation is. In fact the only thing I am sure of at the moment is that I’m thinking and learning and wondering all the time, without managing to be very sure of anything very much. Is that permitted?

Sr J: We journey in faith. We must permit all doubt - for it only through doubt that we can find its opposite.

- Series 14, episode 4
