Call the midwife

Ages ago I was told about a series "call the midwife". But I never seem to be watching the TV when it was on 
The other day I actually saw an episode and I really did like it
So I found the first two seasons on DVD at a reasonable price and a further 20% off. 
How could I resist, so I bought them and I'm now half way through the second series. What a brilliant program. If you get a chance to see it do.
It's set in East London during the 50's and follows the lives of four midwives working as district nurses through the local parish. 
It's based on the journal writings of one of the nurses, jenny, and her journey. 
Every episode you cry, either tears of joy because a baby is born. I'm a sooky lala. Or because of something tragic.
It's real life and all it's up and downs.
I can't wait to get series three.
