OUR GIRL AND CAPTAIN JAMES XLIX

[Ilovelblue]

All discussion on all the BBC series of Our Girl, with particular reference to Captain James, is welcome here.

[Ilovelblue]

Here we are again! Thread 49.

[Ilovelblue]

Molly has to root in the infamous wardrobe.

She finds photos of CJ's son, divorce papers etc.

Lots of flashbacks to happier times.

[eejittwo]

As I tried to say too late on the last thread, you can’t exonerate Smurf for not listening to what
Molly was saying.
But tough going though CJ’s things.

[Ilovelblue]

I'd never heard of decompression or normalisation until I watched this.

Never too struck on Kinders but must admit he does look rather fit!

[eejittwo]

Why doesn’t Qaseem tell her that trying to see Bashira could endanger the girl.

[Ilovelblue]

Kinders has the totally wrong idea and thinks Molly and Smurf are an item. He drops a bombshell that CJ is not recovering as well as expected.

[Rhubarb01]

Sorry, connection is very slow for some reason, so struggling to keep up with comments.

No one noticed that CJ and Molly were close. Molly having flashbacks.

[eejittwo]

Kinders is fairly hot.

[Rhubarb01]

"Come back to me," was a bit of theme

[Ilovelblue]

That's a very snazzy shirt Baz Vegas's Dad is wearing.

Molly's parents and Nan are in the arrivals hall.

Dave really is a pain in the neck.

[Rhubarb01]

Oh Dave and Belinda are starting to reminisce about the good old days.

[Ilovelblue]

Brize Norton to Birmingham isn't exactly a short hop.

[Ilovelblue]

Smurf drops another bombshell that CJ is critical and is having another operation.

[Rhubarb01]

Molly is breaking the rules here. Oh no CJ's bed is empty!!

Will Molly be in time?

[eejittwo]

Thing is Dave is a pain but I do think he’s proud of her.

[Rhubarb01]

Now that the penny has finally dropped with Smurf, it is almost heartbreaking to see his distress and he behaves really well.

[Rhubarb01]

He's still alive...a long night beckons. I'm surprised they didn't throw them out.

This is so sweet...

[eejittwo]

Is Smurf beginning to grow up?

[Ilovelblue]

Oh just look at those lovely brown eyes!

Molly and Smurf are allowed in. I love the way Smurf is dismissed by CJ.

[Rhubarb01]

CJ is reflecting on his own behaviour here.

[Rhubarb01]

ooh, he looks really vulnerable here for the first time.

Then Rebecca arrives....watch her reaction to the "Ditto" comment.

[eejittwo]

In fairness, having Molly sleeping on his shoulder must be hell for Smurf.

[Ilovelblue]

Enter Sam. We see that CJ has a reputation for writing on arms.

He does look a cute little kid. Rebecca looks a very uptight character.

When Molly says "ditto" and Rebecca looks at her, I am still convinced he would say "ditto" to Rebecca and it makes her put two and two together.

[Rhubarb01]

More misunderstandings with Mrs Smurf.

[Ilovelblue]

Two Section arrive at the hospital to see Smurf and Molly apologises for having gone AWOL. Kinders does show a certain amount of compassion.
