Nurse Lucille Anderson (played by Leonie Elliot) has alway been committed to her work with the patients in the Poplar community on Call The Midwife, leaving little time to embark on her own personal journey.
However, things began to change on the BBC drama tonight at Lucille came across engineer and mechanic Cyril Robinson (Zephryn Taitte) while venturing out on another call.
With Nurse Phyllis Crane’s (Linda Bassett) car having some difficulties, Cyril got to work on finding the problem in the middle of the road, blocking Nurse Lucille’s path.
When the two came face-to-face, it was clear they liked one another, with Cyril more than happy to shower the nurse with compliments, as the timid character looked on coyly.
Watching on from a distance, Sister Monica Joan (Judy Parfitt) picked up on the chemistry and later tried to sense how Nurse Lucille felt about her suitor.
Sister Monica was more than happy to sing Cyril’s praises as Nurse Lucille and the other nurses of Nonnatus House sat down for some dinner, with the timid character defensive about her feelings for the mechanic.
Nurse Lucille came to Cyril’s aid however when the mechanic caused himself an injury and while tending to his wounds, the chemistry kept on growing between the pair.
Wanting to take Nurse Lucille dancing, Cyril asked if she would like to go out with him, to which she declined, telling him: “I’m here to work and I cannot allow myself to get distracted.”
However, listening in again, Sister Monica tricked Nurse Lucille into taking him a cup of tea so the two could spend more time together.
Making sure he got his wish, Cyril and Nurse Lucille
