Nurse Nancy Corrigan - Megan Cusack
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nurse Nancy Corrigan
Nancy Corrigan is introduced in S10E04. She is delivered to Nonnatus House by two Catholic nuns. At the dinner table, she reveals everyone calls her "Nancy" after Nancy Sinatra, explaining she wears a lot of boots (in reference to Nancy Sinatra's hit song, These Boots Are Made For Walking).
In S10E06, Nancy reveals a shocking secret. She's an unmarried mother who gave birth aged 16. Her child, Colette, lives in a Catholic orphanage, run by the same nuns that brought Nancy to Nonnatus House. Nancy reveals she's allowed to visit her once a month and that Collette thinks Nancy is her sister. However, during her next visit, Nancy is shocked when Colette takes off her cardigan and reveals bruises on her arms, hinting the nuns are abusing her, so she takes her away from the orphanage.
She resides in a room with Colette. However, this would be of short period of time. On the first night, the landlord knocked on the door. Presumably he was interested to know when she would pay for the room. Nancy reveals that she has taken leave off work, and does not have much money to spare. Therefore, she doesn’t know when she’s able to pay for the room. The landlord hints at her that she is able to pay in other ways. Nancy tries to close the door in a hurry, however, the landlord slams the door in her face, causing a cut on her cheekbone. She was still able to close the door, and only opened the door for Colette. She soon left the place and returned to Nonnatus House. The Sisters and Nurse Crane scolded her for her previous actions, but are interrupted by Sister Monica Joan who indirectly hints that it’s what Nancy wants that matters. Nancy shares what her desires are, which is to qualify as a midwife, make a home for Colette and tell her that she is her mother, be a woman with no secrets, to be trusted, to belong, and to live a life with Colette with no bruises.
After talking with Sister Julienne, Sister Hilda tells Nancy that she is able to stay in Nonnatus House, where she can resume her training to become a midwife.
