Our Girl and Captain James Discussion Thread 31

[icemistOBE]

Join us as we discuss all aspects of the amazing series Our Girl and its dashingly handsome Captain James

We're currently waiting out for news of the cast for series 2. Filming due to start soon

Just read MK's weekly blog type thing but no mention of anything OG.

Haha woof. Sounds like Oslo's the place to be right after I try and track Jamie Fraser in the Highlands.

Don't want to cause a riot, but the BBC is going ahead with OG2 isn't it? There hasn't been some last minute programme cuts and they've decided to not go ahead or delay filming have they? It's just very weird it's so quiet when filming should be imminent. Having heard that Dickensian cost £500k an episode to make, they wouldn't pull the plug ... would they? Instant decompression for me if they have - this waiting out lark is becoming too much when Poldark is only round the corner

Ice & Lola were tweeting something last week about Poldark not being screened until the autumn www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/poldarks-return-been-delayed-six-7181326
Looks like you've been working AT too hard woof.

Any news on your other favourites the Musketeers?

Some light relief for a Tuesday afternoon..

The Autumn pix ? Nope, can't wait that long either. What about Uhtred is he coming back? Ah yes the Musketeers - D'Artagnan would do as a stop gap for sure. Have you seen Athos in WaP bonking Lady Tuppence on the dining table? What a cad.

Oh my word jen, just booking the ferry to go and set light to my French chateau then lock myself in. Just cif-ing off my best top set now in case it takes three of them to hump me down their ladder

Uhtred won't be back until 2017 woof. I'm getting hacked off with the BBC commissioning new series about 3 months after they air. And yet they keep on making Mrs Browns Boys....

Irk, my ovaries will be drawing their pension by 2017 pix , it's simply not good enough BBC! We need decent male totty under 40 on TV, preferably in leather or furs or ill fitting wig, pronto before I start fantasising about Len Goodman or Lord Sugar in plus fours and finding them sexy

It is really strange waiting this long for OG. It probably is still going ahead I would think (could be wrong though). I just think keeping people waiting with no news since June is a bit off. Especially if they want to keep potential viewers happy. I've read that a lot of S1 viewers aren't watching anyway as LT isn't coming back and don't like MK.

We should hear something in next 2 weeks surely?? Maybe they're waiting to sign up BA?

DH came back after his exam earlier very despondent. He said it was really difficult. Wait and see I suppose. Its done now anyway.

I hope he's just thinking the worst Kelly.

kelly, hope mrkelly feeling better about his exam x

Ah hope hes ok kelly and fingers crossed

Aw thanks ladies. I think he's mostly exhausted but resigned that he thinks he did badly. He'll be alright tomorrow. He's on his PlayStation at the minute so he's sort of relaxing.

Did you get DS party invites done pix? Are you inviting his whole class?

Nothing that ambitious Kelly, just a few of them at soft play for a couple of hours followed by heavy drinking in a darkened room for me

Fingers crossed for MrK kel hopefully he's just erring on the side of caution and secretly he's a complete boff as my youngest DS would say.

Ah yes those heady days of soft play parties pix where the mums can't wait to drop their little darlings off in your care for a couple of hours and scarper, then you spend the next 45 minutes refereeing the missile throwing in the ball pit that reeks of wee and deliberately leaving the "friend" your DS doesn't really like suspended on the high ropes crying for his mummy. Not to mention the one who always loses his sock but doesn't tell you til Mummy arrives to get him. Happy days thank God they're over

Decided to plump my ovaries with a little Sullivan Stapleton in Blindspot on UK Living if there's to be a shortage of decent trouser til the Autumn or 2017. Aah yes, that's better

Just catching up with Blindspot now woof, did you see the ad for The Nightmare Worlds of HG Wells, 4 short stories, famous looking actors, Michael Gambon was one I think?

Yup I did Rich they look quite good might watch that

My ovaries are popping having seen Sullivan Stapleton in a tux!!

Evening all. Lovely to sit in my nice warm lounge tonight and able to feel my feet, unlike last night when I felt as if I'd been sitting in a fridge. Even my legs ached last night as I think I'd tensed up subconsciously.

Don't like these doubts coming out about filming of OG. ice have you no spies in the camp who can put us out of our misery? (Sorry to hear you've not been well by the way).

Hope Mr Kelly did ok - it's often not as bad as you expect. When does he get to hear the results Kelly?

Nickel - I've PMd you (I think). Not sure whether I've sent it back to myself though by mistake. Did it come through?

ilove not had a PM through, can you send it again? x

Yep, just sent it again.

Ooh yes indeedy Rich Sullivan in a tux is very easy watching I must say. Lucky I recorded as well so can rewind and enjoy the view five hundred a few more times. Liking the unruly beardy look too

I think I need to get on this Blindspot bandwagon. I might see if I can series link if its on next week.

ilove it probably won't be for a good month or so he gets the results.

pix in DD's school, if there's birthday parties, the whole class normally gets invited otherwise you end up tripping over the smacked arse parents faces whose child you haven't invited.

Morning,

No news at all about cast yet. It's definitely being filmed will see if I can get a rough start date.
I pay no attention to those who say they aren't going to watch it because LT isn't in series 2- can't be real fans if they give up For that! People need to stop looking at the public persona MK has/portrays and look at the actress she actually is. I thought she was great in Ordinary Lies and will be great in OG too. Trust TG and all will be good!!!

Was press thingy for Lucky Man last night/evening but haven't found any shots of Mr A at it. Looking forward to watching it Fri night
