Thought I'd just throw it out there to see if anyone else has watched the SBS series 'Call the Midwife'?
I have only recently just come across it, so I binge watched the seasons on Netflix. (And now currently watching the later seasons borrowed from the library aha). Not usually the type to watch historical/ medical shows, but what really fascinated me was learning about the health and disease research of the 1950s/1960s. I was literally able to consolidate my knowledge from my Biology module: Search for Better health, and thinking about the different infectious diseases anecdotally really helped to me to remember all the info. I needed to know about these, including their dates of vaccination programs.
Apart from the biology study bonuses, I just think it is a really unique series. I love being transported into an older time period 60 years earlier than my own, and learning about their society, culture, what it would have been like.
Keen to discuss the series if anyone else has watched it - if not, perhaps this thread may inspire you to do so.
