As Jenny takes compassionate leave after Alec's death and Sister Julienne collapses with exhaustion Shelagh returns to help out and efficient nurse Patsy Mount arrives. They start to plan for a party to mark the jubilee of Sister Evangelina taking holy orders but are interrupted by irate Mrs Harper, whose daughter Sally, a young woman with Downs Syndrome, is pregnant. The father, cerebral palsy sufferer Jacob, lives in the same residential home and they declare that they are in love and aim to marry but the baby is stillborn and Jacob is sent to another home. News of Evangelina's celebration attracts her brother Vincent, now an alcoholic tramp, and she steals food for him and sees him admitted to hospital, but her party goes ahead - despite her protests - and the community shows their appreciation of her work over the years.—don @ minifie-1

Everyone at Nonnatus House is extra busy while Jenny is away recovering from her loss at the Mother House. The situation is made worse when an exhausted Sister Julienne collapses and Dr. Turner orders two weeks of bed rest. Sheilagh agrees to help out on the administrative side and promptly hires a new midwife, Patsy Mount. Mrs. Harper arrives with her daughter Sally fearing the young girl, who has Down's Syndrome, is pregnant. The father is Jacob Milligan who has cerebral palsy and lives in the same group home as Sally. The two want to keep the baby. Meanwhile, the nuns and midwives are also preparing to celebrate Sister Evangelina's anniversary of taking her vows and entering the sisterhood. She's not at all pleased at the idea. News of the celebration spreads and her brother Vincent, a homeless alcoholic, returns.—garykmcd
