"Wow. That episode of #CallTheMidwife was by far one of the best," one touched user said.

"It made me feel everything possible, as it always does. This show means everything to me, and I'm so grateful for the fact that I get to watch it when it's on."

Another added: "Is it even the #callthemidwife finale if I'm not balling my eyes out by 8:40? Such a tremendous show, always."

"Well done Call the Midwife, to continue to make me cry buckets on a Sunday evening. When you’re not on, it’s normally the thought of work the next day that does that!" one teary viewer commented.

"As usual, not a molecule of moisture left in my body," one said while another posted: "As always, a roller-coaster of emotion, a wonderful end to a great series."
