    Finally got to watch it- and t was brilliant. I. Am. Hooked!!! Even though Ive read the books, I am so pleased we're getting a second series.
    And isnt Miranda Hart fabulous? Great comedienne, even more fantastic straight actress, IMO! Got Chummy down to a tee! In fact, all the characters are spot on- not like Harry Potter, a huge disappointment, casting wise (for the most part- NEVER Rupert Gring, ROWR!!!) for me!
    Im pretty sure Mary's life did not go swimmingly after her baby was taken from her....but I dont want to put a spoiler in for anyone still to read!!
    I havent enjoyed a series as much since Lark Rise to Candleford ended!!!

    Loving it!, read this book before i became a student, and it really made me want to be a midwife even more, the characters are so spot on how i imagined it, wasnt sure what Miranda would be like but she plays it spot on! cant wait for next episode!

    Finally caught up on the first 2 episodes, am off to uni or I'd get stuck into the 3rd! Its beautifully done, though Jenny is portrayed as far more... stuck up? than I imagined. Anyway, love Miranda's character, she plays her so well :) Good episode, must reread the book and see if it has more info about what happens to Mary after they took her baby...

    Yeah, she went to prison for it :(

    I'm finding Jenny a bit too stuck up as well, she's probably my least favourite character on the programme, which is a shame.

    i couldn't put my finger on why i didn't like her... i think you've hit the nail on the head! i can empathise with her much more in the book, shame really.
