i have so much love in my heart for trixie franklin
I love Trixie Franklin. She's so much smarter than people give her credit for. She's kind and a great friend and a fantastic midwife. I am so glad that Call The Midwife continues to keep her around season after season.
call the midwife season 13 just dropped on netflix and it has me on a rollercoaster of emotions with trixie’s entire storyline.
like i’m sobbing because we’ve come so far and she’s grown so much and i love her relationship with matthew—BUT LIKE HOW CAN THEY GIVE US THIS FREAKING NEW YORK STORYLINE???
i was rooting for matthew’s downton abbey social ruin storyline 100% in hopes of him and trixie getting closer with the lack of money, really poetically embodying the wedding vows. AND MATTHEW’S MAN PAIN, DISAPPOINTMENT, AND SELF HATRED AT LOSING HIS ROLE IN HIS FAMILY’S COMPANY AND HIS OWN FORTUNE? chef’s kiss.
but i swear to god, they need to fix this. i’m on episode 8, one episode left, and if they don’t save trixie’s story i will riot. i have not been on the trixie stan team for 13 fucking seasons for it to all end like this.
in other news, i adore the new midwives.
oh also
AND THEY WERE MARY AND JOSEPH
THEY WERE MARY AND FUCKING JOSEPH
In another universe, Trixie married the dentist Christopher Dockerill and they were granted partial custody of his daughter, who was able to overcome her mother's prejudice. Trixie went on to be accepted into medical school, one day opening a women's health clinic that served all women of Polar. 💛💛💛
Just your local die-hard, been-watching-since-the-first-episode, absolute adorer of Call the Midwife for a decade... popping back into the fandom to say!:
They've murdered Trixie's entire character if they set her up with Aylward. Trixie - the most stringent supporter of women (on a show about women supporting women), would NEVER go with a man who was not only her deceased patient's husband, but also her deceased FRIEND'S husband. There are two lines there - professional and personal - that she would not cross.
Secondly, wasn't he revealed to literally be a slum landlord?! My gal Trix would NEVER even TOUCH that man after that was revealed. She'd be close to straight-up murdering him! After all we've seen of her and after all she's seen of poverty-stricken women struggling to live - DYING, she's seen friends and patients DIE in those conditions - she would simply never go with a man who was the DIRECT CAUSE of that. She loves her job and her patients too much.
Honestly it all feels like a betrayal of her character and it's really breaking my heart to know that Heidi either doesn't care about Trixie as a character OR doesn't understand her as a person enough to know that this entire storyline would be disgusting to her.
Also ya know that the middle aged straight women think Aylward is hot therefore it doesn't matter that he's a useless wet blanket and recently-widowed slum owner. Easy to see why they don't care about this major sellout of Trixie's character when they'd do the same.
I hate this story with enough passion to actually quit the show if they go there. Thanks Heidi.
