2 years ago a thread on Our Girl was started with these words ^Anyone watching this drivel?
although slightly enjoyed the family dynamics going on last night, unfortunately DD's favourite programme and in fact Guardian seems to recommend it^

38,000 posts, fireside wrestling contests, fan-fiction, autograph requests, carol concerts, CJ Grand Tours later we are about to watch series 2! And that first post is a distant memory.

Join us on what is sure to be an amazing journey over the next 5 weeks

Stay Alert, Stay Focused, Stay Alive

Bloody amazing, I was holding my breath!
Welcome back firegirl too!!!

Molly reference.. Charlie!!! Elvis in the shower HOT HOT, Woof you need to share!!!

I can't stop giggling to myself about how great that was. Even the cat wonders what I've been watching I think.

Lovely to have more newcomers. korma this is the second episode of the second series. You can find last week's episode on iPlayer and if you look on YouTube, you should find the previous series.

NewCross I am a very recent convert to Luke's obvious delights and now have him on my phone screensaver.

KeziaOAP · 14/09/2016 22:18

Brilliant episode, more action from everyone Mansfield's gonna be OK!

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:20

Now I'm even more curious about what Elvis was up to two years ago - and who is 'Laura'?

I will definitely need a rewatch with subtitles as I missed a few sentence here and there. What was the first thing Elvis said to Georgie in the helicopter before she slapped him? I didn't get that.

Ilovelblue · 14/09/2016 22:20

I missed a reference to Laura Rhu - whereabouts was that? I'm watching some of the scenes again now.

Ilovelblue · 14/09/2016 22:21

Talking of a rewatch, when are we doing it this week. Friday or Saturday?

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:22

Laura' was the name on the tattoo on Elvis' arm Ilove.

cjwoofwoof · 14/09/2016 22:23

Ok here are my highlights:-

Elvis shower scene
CJ thigh strapped thingy
Elvis showering
"Charlie"
Elvis getting very wet
Captain Shoutyshit is BACK
Elvis in the shower
Elvis incorporating the gorilla grip on the winch, hence stopping the scrubs from falling
Elvis in towel
Elvis in wraparound glasses looking well'ard
Elvis in woolly scarf despite the heat and still not looking like a twat
Charlie being very much in charge

Brilliant episode compared to last week, feeling a whole lot more positive

Ooh did I mention Elvis in the shower? That was a highlight Grin

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:23

Shower scene - ilove

Ilovelblue · 14/09/2016 22:23

Ah yes, I was a bit too far from the screen to read it!

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:25

Ahh what a Gent Elvis must be woof to action the Gorilla grip in order to spare Georgie's blushes on the winch!

MaddieMoo82 · 14/09/2016 22:26

woof loved your recap!!
Maybe Laura was the one he dumped by text during the prequel??

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:27

Seriously I burst out laughing when the they did that flashback scene in the cave and had a close up of Elvis's finger twirling the infrared beam around - clearly TG knows us a little too well!

cjwoofwoof · 14/09/2016 22:29

No mads Deb was dumped by text in prequel.

welcome back Firegirl we've missed your input, great to have you back.

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:29

mads Think the text dumped lady was called 'Debs' if my memory from dozens of watches is correct and he said they'd only been out twice - does that count as long-term do you think?

MaddieMoo82 · 14/09/2016 22:31

God I'm rubbish aren't I? Debs, laura? I've lost track already.

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:31

ooh Ditto woof.

Belated welcome back to firegirl and hellos to other newbies tonight!

Ilovelblue · 14/09/2016 22:32

I imagine Elvis is a love 'em and leave 'em type so going out twice is probably long term for him.

Tell you what ladies, I have held off putting in my pre-order for the series 2 DVD but have changed my mind after tonight.

cjwoofwoof · 14/09/2016 22:36

However, as DH rightly pointed out constantly, throughout entire episode, grrrr, do one you numpty the rescue mission would be completed at night under cover of darkness; why would you bury your dog tags only an inch down right next to the entrance where they can then be conveniently uncovered?; the powers that be would know Elvis's history with Georgie and would not send him to rescue her as he is "personally involved" - Charlie was too easily convinced to allow Elvis to continue.

Bugger off to bed, smartarse, and let me enjoy that thigh strap action once more in peace Angry

Rhubarb01 · 14/09/2016 22:37

I'm going to say it again - I thought MK was really good this week and I don't think anyone could accuse her of being too glammed up either. However, I still don't feel quite the same about her character as I did about Molly. That's nothing to do with her acting it's just that GL is a different kettle of fish altogether.
