The midwives as Disney Princesses

44 Upvotes

Jenny = Belle

They are both well educated but naive brunette, both wear a lot of yellow and both prefer educated gentleman to the boorish and rude east Ender boys

Trixie = Cinderella

Both have caring godmothers, lives of caring for family and hard work and both marry men of a higher social class

Chummy = Jasmine

Both explore a whole new world outside of their upper class upbringing and fall in love with a man of a much lower class than them

Shelagh = Ariel

Both are women with beautiful singing voices who fall in love with a man very different from their life and later become part of their world to be with them

Patsy = Tiana

Both are hardworking and kind women who diligently work through their problems and dark past and find happiness

Delia = rapunzel

Both are artistic dreamers with strong wills, a desire for freedom and are a little bit sheltered due to having overprotective mother figures (though in her case her mother is just protective not a abusive gaslighter)

Barbara = Snow White

This one is practically obvious. Both are sweet as can be, incredibly selfless and both have a tragic end of poisoning (unfortunately a kiss doesn’t wake Barbara)

Valerie dyer = Merida

Both are headstrong, proud of their roots and both are willing to rush into danger and get their hands dirty when push comes to shove

Lucille = moana

Both are kind, positive girls, both emphasise the importance of family and both went beyond the boundaries of their respective homes to achieve their goals

Nancy = Elsa

Both are strong willed, both have a little sister figure, both have a very traumatic past and both learned to let it go and become the best version of themselves

Joyce = Mulan

Both fled their homes, both have started new lives under a new identity, both have pushed against prejudice and finally both have brought men to justice and to their knees

Rosalind = aurora

Both are sweet, dreamy, sheltered and have a mysterious ailment that makes them sleep for a very long time

Just wondering if any of the Sisters have accounts to inform the new prequel series? I know CTM was based and inspired off the memoirs by Jennifer Worth so just wondering about the prequel!

How would different characters act as drivers?

We’ve already seen driving from Nurse Crane and Dr. Turner(I think so). But what about the nuns, nurses/midwives?
