Our Girl Fan Fiction here

Series 2... filming starts Jan 2016

Ah, lovely.. seems I like Lego woof

Evening

All ready for Canada tomorrow. Ridiculously excited now.

Just checked and my Our Girl eps are ready to play (just in case in flight movies are rubbish)

Need to rant!

Seems Sean Ward met MK at the TV choice awards last night. He tweeted TG saying he met 'our girl' and TG duly replied saying she's lovely and she's gonna be great etc etc. All these tweets about MK being fab etc make me think a CJ/Molly cameo scene is the last thing on their mind. But surely, with TG knowing how much fans love their story, hopefully he would arrange something good for us. Especially maybe in any UK scenes so LT wouldn't have to travel.

Still can't believe LT's not properly involved in this especially if BA's coming back. It seems a total wasted opportunity.

Have a fabulous time ice - 5xback to back eps of OG makes long haul almost worthwhile.

Welcome to the Lego Club mooj I'm glad someone else shares my taste in antipodean and Belgian muscle mountains. Totally top notch oglingviewing imo. orph and Rhu can fight over Keith Chegwin and Hugh F-W at the wrestling

Oh no the thought of MK being OG is bringing back the almost-forgotten-about sulk Kel humph. Just hoping she won't be too bad and will get down and dirty if the role is to be believed.

My niece is in the forces and off duty is extremely pretty and brushes up beautifully. But on-duty she has to conform ie. zero make-up, zero jewelery, hair scraped up and in tight bun, zero wisecracks...and zero orange skin bah!!

ice hope you & CJ have an amazing time in Canada.
rich thinking of you this week.
Might gonna end up having Bay City Rollers based nightmares, my sis had s thing for Woody

Just be thankful it wasn't Derek mooj

Have a wonderful time ice. Reign has started filming again so if BA's back in, you might end up being on the same flight.

woof I mean it's not MK's fault LT didnt want to come back full time for S2 and she probably is a great actress etc and no doubt she will immerse herself in the role, it's just we had this great love story in S1 and it feels like its come to a premature stop without her especially if all the rest of the cast return. I think I just feel shafted for want of a better word

The only way I'll be fighting over Keith Cheqwin woof is if it's to keep him out of Castell Coch. We certainly don't want an alternative version of Cheggers Plays Pop in the firelight. Look's like it could be me and orph manning the doors by the sounds of it. That will be fine as long as we get to barricade them in as well

Have a great trip ice. Looking forward to hearing about the highlights. Hope CJ whisks you off to that remote mountain cabin!!

Kelly I expect TG had a bit of dilemma when it came to series two, knowing what a bunch of loyal fans the series had and wanting to continue the story but not being able to continue the CJ/MD story the way lots of us might have wanted. It's a challenge but I'm sure he'll surprise us and it'll be different but we'll still enjoy it and maybe find new characters to invest in. I'm sure there'll be something in there for us all if CJ returns. We might have fun looking out for the little references. Here's hoping!

woof I do not jest when I say I really was a massive Bay City Rollers fan as an impressionable young teen. I can still chant B.A.Y. B.A.Y. B A.Y. C.I.T.Y. with an R.O. double L. E.R.S. Bay City Rollers are the best!

Unfortunately, my Les tribute act hasn't gone down well at breaktime in the staffroom (I got in a bit of a muddle with my tartan scarf) and the Head is bringing forward my appraisal and looking at grounds for dismissal

ice have a fab time and be sure to carry supplies of maple syrup and a big furry rug at all times just in case you encounter BA.

As for Keith, I could never quite fathom why Maggie Philbin married him. Rhu I'm still feeling rather queasy at the thought of a firelit Cheggers Plays with himself Pop. Knowing my luck, I'd get ringside tickets and discover the top tier of naked wrestlers have been taken hostage by woof ill and the understudies, Cheggers and The Sausage, are taking centre stage.

For some strange reason orph that reminds me of the time we went to a pantomime in which Patsy Palmer was starring and just before the curtain up it was announced she was ill and the understudy was playing the lead role. This news was accompanied by an audible groan in the theatre and I remember feeling terribly sorry for the poor girl waiting in the wings to play the role knowing everyone was disappointed she was appearing. She turned out to be great and got a massive cheer at the end. However, sadly I don't think the same will be true of The Sausage and KC should they have to stand in for the main contenders!

And I have a horrible feeling rhu that Nicholas Witchell would seize the opportunity to ditch his cloakroom duties and 'muscle' (if that word can be used) his way into the actual wrestling.

I was terrified when I went to see The Crucible with Richard Armitage in it, that he would have been taken ill, but fortunately he was there in all his glory. There was a scene where he took his top off and washed himself and you could feel and see all the females in the audience lean forward as one in order to get a better view...

And there might even have been a collective sigh of appreciation.

Reading between the lines I can see orph and Rhu are furtively rather looking forward to viewing Cheggers v The Sausage from the cheap seats with NW as understudy in case orphs thrown knickers lasso and strangle poor Keith rendering him flaccid and limp.

This leaves the coast clear for mooj and I to closely monitor all-comers in the Lego department from the invitation-only Dress Circle and generally fill our boots as well as other orifices

DH is currently watching Z Nation full of grey-faced zombies banging on doors to get to the humans and I had visions of something like this happening at the Fireside wrestling as orph and I stand at the barricaded doors trying to keep all the wild, moaning non-contenders out.

As for Cheggers V The Sausage - surely no contest woof. It would have to be The Sausage although Cheggers was pretty nimble at the old gymnastics last year in the ill-fated 'Tumble' so you never know. If I was sitting in the cheap seats I most definitely would not invest in a pair of opera glasses - I think beer goggles would be more appropriate.

Think I'd keep my eyes firmly closed Rhu

ice wishing a safe journey tomorrow. You must be super excited ! Look about for talk, dark wavey hair godlike men!!

Oh poor Keith being flaccid and and limp, I don't think I would even pay for the cheap seats for that performance.

I watched the end of LCL, it was ok but not quite the QS I thought. It was funny when Mellors said "Cock" in his accent, I couldn't stop laughing :)

You must be so excited ice. As CJ's tour guide, I've been in touch with him tonight and he assures me he'll be at Piccadilly station to meet you tomorrow. Have fun! No joining the mile high club!

Don't listen to her ice, you get him in those toilets as soon as the seatbelt light goes ping and don't let him out until you're landing. You won't need those Our Girl episodes when you have the real thing in hand and other orifices

Enjoy CJ AND have fun with the Mounties ice. Safe trip, we'll be all ears for any snippets of info :)

ice I'm sure BA can wangle a 1st class seat so there'll be plenty of room for some under the cosy blanket QS, whilst the stewardess averts her eyes or more likely gives you dagger eyes whilst consumed with envy. It's a long flight, so you've got to keep yourself occupied in some way...

Safe trip ice, have fun xx

Gosh that was hard saying goodbye to my boys
All excited for it now. I'll try and post when I can.
Shall leave you with a few fave photos
