However, while fans were overjoyed to see the two fan favourite characters safe and sound, there was still some sadness in the episode as Mrs Corbett's husband died in the crash while she was giving birth in Nonnatus House.

Fans took to Twitter to praise the heartbreaking yet compelling episode, with one person writing: "Pfew @CallTheMidwife1 I’m a total mess again. How is it possible that I’ve been crying and laughing and crying and laughing for 11 seasons straight?! Good job again everybody!" while another added: "That was a beautiful, emotional and really special episode of Call the Midwife. I needed lots of tissues."
