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

I got as far as choosing the pic to send

Sorry your feeling poorly jen can you claim back your annual leave? I know in my place in you are poorly and you are ok annual leave but have a doc certificate/note you can potentially get some of the time back.

Ah hugs mooj hubbys can be total bellends most of the time and get on your nerves for the remainder can't they? He's obvs missing you loads but is too manly to admit it so he nitpicks instead. Just store it all up ready for something vengeful when the times right Today I washed DHs work clothes in with our incontinent dogs blankets & that's more than satisfactorily made up for his week-long toothache-induced moaning, snigger.

Ooh good news ice - just sorry to see the beanie still firmly in place, cringe I really hope TG doesn't just write Molly off as a CJ fling and pair him up with Georgie instead, double cringe, that simply will not do BBC. I'm also concerned at the later filming; that suggests to me it'll be shown early 2017 after Poldark airs in the Sunday night Autumn slot. Unless they stick it on midweek I suppose. Either way I just wish it would hurry up coz TV at the moment is blimmin shite except W&P on Sunday nights.

Rant over...

Mooj, send him a giant hi-res photo of his mum with the caption 'I found someone who cares'

I'm just tuning my tiny violin for MrMads

Poor you Jen. Yes you definitely need a night out with RLC. At the very least he'd get you so drunk you couldn't feel your throat. Is he back in the country now?

Ladies, you are the best

Time scale on filming is similar to last time. Last shots were done May then. But it's when it's going to be aired. Possibly mid week or after Poldark has finished. Poldark will be in the slot that Downton was

Hope you feel better soon jen there's so many bugs about due to the mild winter, everybody's getting all sorts of lurgy.

Bah! My evening of freedom has been ruined as all footy matches are off, so Outlander is still in the cellophane as we watch yet more Only Fools and Horses reruns. Just about to spit in DHs coffee and tell him it's cappuccino... Just kidding ... Or am I?

Just preparing my extra large violin to whack MrMads around the chops with it, mads

Like I said - bellends - I rest my case

Thanks mads, the gp mentioned it, but these were my carryover days that I didn't use last year so was my last chance to use them. Will try and get them back anyway, or if it hasn't cleared up by next week will see about getting signed off for an extra week possibly. Couldn't work in this state, can't get more than a whisper out mr Jen is delighted. Hoping mr mads has his rattle back in the pram with him by now. Maybe you should take up a nighttime hobby that means he has to handle some evenings alone too!

No pix, he's still away but due back in March last time I spoke to him. He's acquired both a god awful beard and a woman God help us all

woof you need to get started on outlander!

mooj you're a woman after my own heart

What excellent news on the BA front! Wonder what took him so long to make his mind up! Maybe was still hoping for a break in the States. Anyway, we've got him now. Whoopee!! So excited. pixie you could give him a few tips on Kenya, couldn't you?

woof have to agree with you there about the beanie. Not his best look by a long way!

Can't complain on the husband front (yes, men are pains in the neck most of the time) but my own personal whinge today is that the plumber came to check out the so called designer's plans for my bathroom. Good job I was somewhat sceptical about her ideas because they were way off the mark. Oh and the best bit is that it's going to cost me considerably more money because they're going to have to lower the ceiling and alter a wall. What happened to the "I just want a new sink, toilet and a walk in shower instead of a bath?"

Anyway, the news of BA being back in series 2 has (almost) made up for the bathroom news!

ice do we know about any more of the cast yet? In our excitement about BA, I'm not sure I thought about that before.

The other miserable news today is that one of my colleagues (49) has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Even the BA news can't help on that score.

Just suspicions and maybe 95% on one cast member. But don't want to say it out loud

Would that be someone that some of the Twitter ladies met this weekend, or one that would make me happy?

Ooh go on ice!

Ah rubbish ilove on both fronts. I'm sure the bathroom will look great. How long do they think it will take. Sorry about your colleague too.

Thanks ladies if anyone would like to come play and/or hit MrMads with the violin that would be lovely. He's whingy (due also to early stages of man-flu) so am hiding up stairs out of the way. And yes jen should disappear some evenings but frightens me to think what it would be like when I got back . Hope you can get some extra time off.

mooj I've definitely come to the conclusion that most men haven't quite at all grasped the concept of being a grown up! I would have sent a massive pic too so you are being very restrained!

Let's hope BA's beanie gets lobbed out the plane, on the flight over. Good old TG, he likes to keep the suspense and speculation going! Clever man! I'm reckoning that CJ is back in some army role, TG knows how much we love the low slung combats, that he won't be MKs love interest (surely he won't do that ... I think that would cause an uproar!) but that he'll still be with 2 section, and that Mansfield Mike will still be a liability in the refugee camp ... Can you imagine!?! Maybe MK will be their boss, that would be funny! Anyway. Back to packing school bags and getting the kids off to sleep!

Hee hee pix

They think I will be a week (I presume 5 working days) without a shower and the first couple of days I would have to "flush" the toilet with a bucket of water. Luckily my friend across the road will let me use her shower.... I did the same for her when she had hers done a couple of years ago.

Men are so incredibly childish......... CJ being the exception to the rule, but even he is prone to the odd sulk of course.

Well well I go out for a couple of hours and look what happens! Good news on the CJ front. BA probably thinks it'll give another boost to his career doing another series.

Tough titties but I'll say it anyway that if BA's back, I'll have a bit of a sulk if no Molly cameo.

Hope things are still open for a third series.

Kelly I think we just have to trust TG that he knows what he's doing. Don't beat yourself up about it. It is what it is.

Least he's in it kelly which opens up the possibility of both scenarios. Fingers crossed!

Yep its true what you say, have faith in TG.

So sorry ilove about your work colleagues news.
Poor Jen hope you're feeling better soon.

Absolutely full of food and need to muster a bit of energy to sort uniforms for tomorrow.

Ladies, do we need to gird our loins and prepare to be made fun of by Graham Norton, do we think? With MK being a bigger name than LT, do you think OG will get airtime on his chat show?

Just watching the weather forecast for tomorrow - p*ssing it down by the looks of it - tail end of the American storm.

Morning

Throwing it down here And I've got to go out in it. Taxi to nursery I think and then to tram station.

Still on a high from yesterday! I guess that's what we'll be talking about on Sat and our thoughts on what role CJ will have. I do hope we get the odd snippet of info whilst they are off filming. I presume MK will give it the odd mention in her blog.

Have a great day everyone

I'm still excited about the news yesterday. I can't imagine what story line it's going to be!! But whatever the master TG writes will be good enough for me (as long as CJ appears in EVERY episode!)

Meant to be taking dad to look at TVs today but think he might blow away! Might leave it for another day.

jen hope you feel better - and try as best as you can to rest your voice, chloraseptic ? Spray is good.

mads and mooj hope both your days are better today, think we will all have big grins whatever comes our way today!
