I hope they give Trixie an opportunity to move on with her life first. Not necessarily with a man, but just something. Across the ten years covered by the programme so far other young midwives have come and gone, moving on to new jobs and vocations, or travel abroad or marriage and children.
But Trixie is still plodding the same beat, coming home to tea with the nuns every evening, living like a student nurse.
She's an intelligent and beautiful woman who would surely have grown a bit restless by now and want to broaden her horizons a bit.
I sincerely hope, if they do develop the Matthew storyline, that it won't be another 'almost made it to the altar but changed her mind at the last minute' narrative. We had it with Tom and Christopher and a 3rd time would be boring.
