Do we still have Quote of the Week?

"She wouldn't have had that modern sensibility to realise that a few googly eyes over dinner do not equal a desire to be taken up the jacksy after brandy." LeBOF

I do hope JF comes on here for a webchat.

PigeonPie · 15/11/2011 14:25

Well, I think they're going to have to bring in Lord Peter Wimsey to solve the 1Mrs Bates mystery - he's just the chap for an arsenic murder.

ThePsychicSatsuma · 15/11/2011 14:27

YES MN you must demand JF comes on for an hour or two. We can quiz him so deeply, so penetratingly,

OliviaMumsnet ignored a personal plea from him for him to come on, plus our generalised requests on the FOUR THREADS.

Ho hum. Think he's scared.

Seriously, JF, it's no big deal, just have a couple Wine before we get started to loosen yourself up. We will have done.

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 15/11/2011 17:05

sorry a personal plea from ME.

LeBOF · 15/11/2011 17:07

Yeah Jules, baby- you'll still be a virgin for NetMums Wink

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 15/11/2011 17:12

le BOF - you is da best.

CheerfulYank · 15/11/2011 18:50

Taken up the jacksy!

NanBullen · 15/11/2011 22:22

Am now stalking following Dan Stevens on twitter Grin

NanBullen · 15/11/2011 22:24

so this basically means i'm bessie mates with Matthew Crawley.

Sort of.

ScatterChasse · 15/11/2011 23:08

Well yes LeBOF, Cora even said 'Did he force himself on you?'.

I thought Mary was clever, if she'd just said 'Yes' it would have all been covered up as 'foreigners think googly eyes are an invitation to the aforementioned up-the-jacksying.'

I mean Pamuk was hardly in a state to deny it was he?

Bossybritches22 · 15/11/2011 23:31

NanBullen get to the back of the queue.

Some of us were stalking following him when he was wounded, impotent & likely never to be a Proper Man.

I second LeBof for quote of the week !!

ThePsychicSatsuma · 16/11/2011 11:13

pamuk was quite pretty, wasn't he. whaich actor played him?

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 16/11/2011 11:45

Okay, STRALLAN is back for the Christmas episode. Seen by a source on IMDb.

Where is LADY DIDDL?

ThePsychicSatsuma · 16/11/2011 20:35

OP posts:
daveywarbeck · 16/11/2011 21:16

Yep.

Moln · 16/11/2011 21:20

The old guy? Reading 'farmer I thought of the man on the farm where she was driving the tractor.

Moln · 16/11/2011 21:21

squeals

There IS a downtown wiki!!!

downtonabbey.wikia.com/wiki/Downton_Abbey_Wiki

(has this been pointed out and I'm just very, very, behind with the uptake?

Moln · 16/11/2011 21:26

Hmmm according to this wikia

the farmer that edith kissed, when she was working on the farm, was the same man that was saved by Isobel's medical knowledge and ability to get the doctor to try it on him (he had dropsy of the heart)

Didn't cop that when i was watching

Bossybritches22 · 16/11/2011 22:15

Really?? I thought he was younger than that, the one with dropsy?

Wiki not known for it's accuracy...we should update it!!

MarthasHarbour · 16/11/2011 22:20

oo thank you for the wikia - something else to satisfy my 'fix' Grin

Moln · 16/11/2011 23:06

I know felt too excited when i found it.

Will check out the truth of the farmer when i get hold of the lap top. Dh studing and needs it for essays and stuff. Like that's more important than DT!

Certainly should update it if it's wrong

Bossybritches22 · 16/11/2011 23:09

Mr Moln, get your fecking priorites right Sir!!

Grin
CheerfulYank · 16/11/2011 23:22

Yes 'twas the same farmer. There was some business about "oh he's feeling better now", etc.

May I just say again that I find it A BIT RICH that Fatty 6 was on about Bransyb when he was all the time sucking face with SlutMaid? I mean really . It's only okay to dally with the help if it's behind closed doors, not in a marriage proper-like. Angry

daveywarbeck · 17/11/2011 10:12

that's the point yank, he's a man so he could do what he liked. I am holding out hopes for fatty bum bum to snuff it in series 3.
