... because people do that in real life too? Sometimes someone needs to move back home suddenly to take care of an ailing parent or they/their partner gets a job that requires them to move somewhere else or they decide that actually they were happier when they were living somewhere else, etc.

I guess I'm just not seeing why this is weird. It happens all the time IRL.

... I've never had someone I've lived and/or worked with for months just disappear. Even if it is just a, "I am quitting in two weeks."

Sure, but in a TV show that is planned and written ahead of time, viewers don't expect a character to vanish without explanation and never show up again.

People IRL urinate and crap every single day, multiple times a day, but you don't expect to see every single character on a TV show to be shown doing that in real time. I don't get this "... but why is it weird because IRL people do it all the tiiiiime" confusion you're experiencing. You surely understand that people have different expectations of media, right?

Okay maybe I'm weird because I actually DO expect that sort of thing to happen when you consider that actors frequently quit shows (sometimes mid-season) to go work on other projects.

Look, nobody's saying that doesn't happen. But. You know. Because it's a TV show with a script, viewers usually expect that to be worked into the show somehow, as a way of explaining why a character disappeared. Because that can be done. Because it's a TV show with a script.

True, but IRL isn't a story - Call the Midwife is, and sometimes its nice when a story makes more sense than 'just because'.
