# Good King Wenceslas looked out

# On the Feast of Stephen

# When the snow lay round about

# Deep and crisp and even

# Brightly shone the moon that night

Christmas Eve.
What a time to start midwifery.
:51:34
I hope no mother starts producing
in the next eight hours.
:51:38
Don't worry, man. The people round
here go in for large families,
:51:42
so the mother should know about it.
:51:44
- Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
:51:47
- You on call tonight?
- Yes.
:51:49
- Ever had a birth before?
- Not actually.
:51:51
The midwife will help you through.
:51:54
Here's your tackle.
Check it before you go.
:51:57
- Have you got your threepence?
- What for?
:52:00
To telephone the hospital if you get
into trouble. Who's first out?
:52:04
- Him.
- You'd better make up your minds.
:52:08
- Well, it's quiet, anyway.
- Ha!
:52:10
Once it starts, they pop up like
rabbits from a warren. Good hunting.
:52:16
- Merry Christmas.
- And Merry Christmas to you, Sister.
:52:22
I just popped in
to see how things are.
:52:25
- Quiet.
- Yes, same in Casualty.
:52:27
I'm slipping up to Prudence Ward.
:52:29
That Night Nurse.
I've been on her trail for weeks.
:52:33
And you said beware of nurses.
:52:35
This one's all right.
Wants her stocking filled.
:52:40
Well, Christmas Eve, you know.
See you later.
:52:47
Well, toss you
for who has a baby first.
:52:50
Tails.
:52:53
Tails. It's me.
