#73 – Christmas Special: The Outer Hebrides (S9.0)

This week on Poplar Opinion we're talking about the season eight Christmas Special of Call the Midwife!

On this episode a contingent from Nonatus House travels to the Outer Hebrides to deliver medical relief to Scottish people! Fred runs afoul of local traditions, Dr. Turner has to work without heat or electricity or hospital support, many of the nurses see themselves, in different ways, in one of their patients, and Shelagh is not that kind of Scottish.
