Well, here we are at the season finale, somehow, which kicks off with Martin creeping through Juliet and Taylor’s house… carrying a hammer? Not gonna lie, I was a little worried about where this was going for a hot second, but then Jess and the rest of the crew came around the corner from where they’ve been lying in wait and ask Martin what he’s up to. While they bundle him into a police car, Juliet approaches Jess and asks if the police will “stop harassing” her and Taylor.

With only one more episode in the season after this one, it’s not surprising that everyone is starting to seem more and more suspicious. And that extends to some folks who aren’t even involved in this case, like Jess’ Dirtbag Husband. We’re kicking this week’s episode off at her place, where she’s watching him with the kind of expression that would leave ME quite scared, but he is somehow ignoring entirely.

Last week, we made another connection between our group of possible suspects and an early-COVID era murder. This week, we kick things off at the station canteen, where our pals chat about the case.

Last time, the threads connecting our murder victim to the various characters we’ve met this season started to make themselves known.

Last time, we met our cast of possible murderers/witnesses for the season: Melinda, a journalist with a public persona that’s much more conservative than her real life thoughts; two young immigrants — Hassan, who’s just arrived in the UK, and Asif, who’s on the brink of taking his citizenship test; an autistic young man named Martin who lives at home with his elderly mother; and a harried mother/school teacher called Juliet who’s trying to manage her daughter Taylor’s reaction to Taylor's father’s death. And, speaking of: that body that our detective friends have been investigating? It’s the remains of said father/husband, Gerry. Also, as ever, Sunny and Jess have way too much drama going on in their personal lives, but that’s kinda par for the course, ya know?

After almost two years, we’re reuniting with our Unforgotten friends — new and old. Season six begins with our pal Sunny out at a semi-fancy restaurant. Before he can even order, he gets a call and you can guess the rest: there’s a body. It’s old (comparatively). He's got a case.

As drama fans, it’s honestly kind of wild that we are just now talking about The Gilded Age for the first time. And yet, here we are. Season 3 is currently airing, and now that we’ve reached the midpoint (and an episode with some MAJOR plot developments, which yes, we will be discussing; spoilers ahead) it’s time for GBH Drama to talk over everything that’s happened so far this season: the good, the bad, and the dramatic.

Well, somehow we’re here at the final episode of season 14, which features two weddings, many returning characters, and one big surprise.

Just as it’s starting to get hot here in Boston, the autumn chill is coming on in Poplar. Our friends keep busy with work, family games, and car repairs (just Phyllis’ luck: first day back, and her tire springs a leak). But the biggest piece of news is that a date has been set for Joyce’s disciplinary hearing: the powers that be have upheld Bernie’s complaint, so now Joyce has to defend herself against a charge of misconduct and disobedience. Thankfully, she’s got all of Nonnatus backing her, but this will still probably be a fairly wretched experience.

This week, our friends in Poplar are dealing with a real garbagey situation: literally. There’s a trash collection strike, which has resulted in a giant pile of rubbish right outside Nonnatus house. Inside, it’s business as usual. Well, sort of: Phyllis is on vacation, which means Trixie is in charge of the schedule for the week.
