That is so funny ilove

Ooh go steady painted, I can only handle so much...

cjwoof once CJ's had a second helping of my soft baps and finished my fondant fancys, then I'll pass him over to you.

I don't know if I am on the right thread but when googling the program 'Our Girl', this thread came up.

I missed the whole series and want to watch it, is it online anywhere?

Nativity, I think the easiest way is to download the episodes via iTunes, or buy the DVD?

Baci di dama with drying chocolate

Hi nativity welcome to the madness

www.watch-tvseries.net has the episodes. Although I think ep 5 is missing. and as cherin says dvd or on iTunes too.

Hello nativity! Once you've watched it and realise how good it is, come and join us on here!

Must be a year now since this was taken. Who'd have guessed then what it would lead to

How long is each episode? Was there a pilot and an additional 5 or 5 in total?

Pilot was a movie- about 90 mins then each episode is 60 mins

Hi nativity, hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

cherin am so impressed! Don't suppose you know how to make the other biscuits Carluccios sells? They're long and sandwiched like the baci but the biscuit is chocolate. Equally yum.

Just looked them up - they're called Masserini.

Im going to buy the dvd. Found it on Amazon but it doesn't appear to have the original show on the DVDs?

www.amazon.co.uk/Our-Girl-DVD-Lacey-Turner/dp/B00MWV4QI2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424552277&sr=8-1&keywords=Our+girl can anyone advise?

I thought they had it on DVD, possibly sold separately? On iTunes it's available!

Never heard of masserini but I have a never fail-couldn't be easier recipe that I can suggest:
200gr of ricotta (fresh cheese, can't be replaced am afraid)
200 gr icing sugar
200gr coconut flour (desiccated)
Just mix together, if you want you can split the mixture in two and add some cocoa powder to one half. Roll into small balls, bite-sized, and roll onto more coconut so that you dust them well (takes 5'!). If you have any mini-muffin paper-case you can put them in. Refrigerate until serving. Yummy. Perfect for summer when switching the oven on is an unbearable thought. (Clearly, that's a once in 7 years situation in the uk, but nevertheless, they are good :-)

Can only say that CJ needs to run for Prime Minister Painted oh boy could just see him holding staff meetings in No.10, whilst wearing a very smart suit/ khakis and sitting on a swivel chair....

Prime Minister's Questions takes on a whole new meaning for me after this new story.

I bought the original DVD after I'd seen the series from eBay. The original one isn't essential viewing but it does help fill in a few gaps.

www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.TRS0&_nkw=our+girl&_sacat=11232

Lola I never thought of that but yes! What a wonderful idea. Doubt we'd get CJ PM at our AGM though.... security would be too tight.

I bet the PM has an amazing swivel chair...

Second time in a week I have seen something Zombie related. Am now convinced SPO lives in Deal and man who smiled at me in a Zombie like fashion today is in fact him.

Am going to do reconnaissance at this wine bar in the name of discovering identity of him. Every drink gets a free straw enough of a pull for me!

Shouldn't there be some kind of gesture/handshake/wink for those kind of situations. To identify a fellow OG crazy fan?

I can confirm swivel chair in PM office plus some fan dangled coffee machines....

Thread Perhaps that was it??? I just thought it was normal situation. Some strange man giving me evil eye whilst squeezing avocado's in green grocers!

A while back we were discussing celebrity sightings. Well today I was stood next to Imelda Staunton in Bettys tea room (clue to my location and a British institution cherin) And then I walk outside to see Carson the butler from Downton. A quick check on IMDB shows them to be married. So a two for one deal!

Lola I hope he wasn't squeezing your avocados. Not in a public place.

Back home now and sorting out the muddy kit!

cherin so impressed with your baci di dama, they look delicious. A tea room must. CJ in a tea room would be a delight! Plenty of cream filled patisserie all on the sweet trolley!

So much FF to read but think that will be my bedtime treat.

thread what wonderful star sightings for you today, both brilliant actors.
