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

CJ in the shower

4forksake · 15/09/2016 10:53

Must've been too busy drooling over CJ & Elvis & missed it, but who's Sam?

cjwoofwoof · 15/09/2016 11:01

I'm sorry Dancey but I have needs and one specimen of Shoutypants loveliness is simply not enough. What about if I fancy some nice woolly scarf with wraparound sunglasses action followed by an ice bucket challenge type shower - who will fill that hole? Suddenly a tricorn hat with a good dollop of pilchard roe is on the menu - where do I turn? It's all about spreading yourself thinly obvs to fulfil the final objective of full and total satisfaction with all comers as they say Grin

Grin Grin mads we'll all be coming if there's a Captains party at Rhus Lechley Park anytime soon. Can we have the same showers installed and some extra high drainpipes please Rhu in case Elvis pops in, round, lathers up then out with his chopper?

cjwoofwoof · 15/09/2016 11:05

Forks Sam is CJs son by his first marriage who will be about nine now. Keeping him a secret in S1 tested Molly's love but she eventually crumbled and forgave CJs deceit as of course we all would

MaddieMoo82 · 15/09/2016 11:09

Yes to the captains party at lechley park woof! Can you sort this rhu???
Maybe they are saving the CJ shower scene for at home in bath dance Grin

4forksake · 15/09/2016 11:14

Thanks woof. Completely forgot about that. Think I might need to get the first series on dvd & drool re watch

4forksake · 15/09/2016 11:14

Ilovelblue · 15/09/2016 12:19

Ladies, can I just have this on record that although I am a very recent convert to Elvis' obvious attributes, this does not mean that I have forsaken CJ at all. Elvis runs an incredibly close second and I have to say I do like the slightly more mature approach CJ has adopted this series. His sense of humour has developed more too.

I would not say no to either of them!

pixieg1rl · 15/09/2016 12:27

I do like the Letchley Park concept. Maybe for our second AGM. I do believe Bletchley park has an ornamental lake, so perhaps instead of fireside wrestling the entertainment could be various contestants emerging from the water dressed in breeches and flouncy shirts in a competitive Mr Darcy/x factor mash up.

cjwoofwoof · 15/09/2016 12:28

ilove you Jezebel

cjwoofwoof · 15/09/2016 12:34

Excellent notion pix but I fear Luca and AT may have the edge as they're old hands already in the wearing of said flouncy billowy lacy shirt department. Perhaps make it an either/or with the option of shirt or stark bollock naked in just a headset and strapped thigh thingy just to even things up and give us a damn good contest to boot Wink

Can I also add I have a look of Louis Walsh Nicole Sherzinger so am qualified to judge the whole contest.

KeziaOAP · 15/09/2016 12:41

Pondering on last night's episode had to dream about something/one whilst using garden shredder like dance thought Laura may be Elvis' daughter, some scenarios not too dissimilar to S1.

pixieg1rl · 15/09/2016 13:22

Yes, Laura could be a daughter with the poor shunned Debs, although getting someone up the duff on one of 2 dates is pretty good rat up a drainpipe action from Elvis.

pixieg1rl · 15/09/2016 13:24

God, BA's agents are dire. They've only now sent out a tweet about his staring role in a prime time BBC drama, 2 weeks after it started. Hmm

SoEverybodyDance · 15/09/2016 13:40

I don't know why he doesn't take us up on our frankly generous offer to manage his career for him... Pix I mean it's not as if we would put him forward for Capt James roles ALL the time... He can do a few fleabags periodically and some other edgy roles from time to time... We'd have to draw the line at any more Reign roles, though, obviously...

SoEverybodyDance · 15/09/2016 13:43

...Unless they were in the buff!

icemistOBE · 15/09/2016 13:50

Think the PR company do all his promotion now. But it's no excuse.
His cv still doesn't have Amre on it and that's now in post- production.

SoEverybodyDance · 15/09/2016 13:52

Who is the PR company Ice?

pixieg1rl · 15/09/2016 13:53

Doing my screen grabs for tomorrow and I just had to get this one which illustrates what happens when you don't put woof in charge of the showers. (Also shocking dog tag continuity)

pixieg1rl · 15/09/2016 13:55

I hope he's renegotiated his fee ice. If nothing else they aren't selling themselves very well either

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 15/09/2016 14:01

Oooh, I think I've solved it!

So Elvis drives back to London Confused to get his suit for the wedding - all happy and singing and definitely planning on marrying Georgie. He arrives back at his London home to find Debs on his doorstep either with enormous baby bump or with baby (Laura). He thinks WTF do I do now?, panics, stands Georgie up, then doesn't know how he can possibly make it right so doesn't contact her again.

Whaddya think?

icemistOBE · 15/09/2016 14:08

Prosper PR

BBC must have ignored our rather public job application for the role of continuity.

I like that theory! Something stopped him going through with it all. And CJ doesn't know what it was, surely he'd know if there was a child....they are meant to be best friends

OP posts:
cjwoofwoof · 15/09/2016 14:11

Excellent theory TOLBINC but I'm wagering Laura is a drunken one night stand in a Magaluf tattoo parlour on the rebound from the jilting because Elvis is an absolute DOG with the ladies. Georgie hence marries the safe and very boring doctor

moojangles · 15/09/2016 14:43

Thanks for the ear worm tolbinc as well as the theory

Rhubarb01 · 15/09/2016 14:44

"I am speaking to you now from the cipher room at Lechley Park..." - yes whittling away with blunt pencils an abacus and sliderule is probably more my style than ice's high tech bunker up north. If this continues, however, we could have a chain of outposts across the nation. Remember that story about M5 and Mumsnet?

Well all I can say to the idea of a second AGM at Lechley Park is let's go for a Guinness Book of Records attempt at the same time - anyone remember that old clip from Blue Peter where they tried to break the world record for the most people squeezed into a Mini? Well, think along similar lines ... Mind you, if the idea of an extreme version of sardines with a couple of captains appeals, especially if they had been persuaded to arrive ready to re-enact showers and paddling pool scenes, we could be onto something!

I'm liking the ideas advanced about 'Laura' being a child and why the wedding was called off. It had occurred to me that it might be a child but I wasn't sure if we would go down that route again after Sam - mind you I also like woof's theory about the tattoo as well. I still keep thinking that when CJ asked Georgie if she had caught up with Elvis' news he was testing what or if she knew anything about what had happened. Are we supposed to think that he didn't speak to Elvis again for two years after the wedding fiasco? To be honest though, if Molly is friends with Georgie don't you think she would have found out what Georgie knew or is it just that they aren't really around each other much because of their work? There is much to fathom and decipher here in the 'Hut'. I may need to burn some midnight oil.

I'm looking forward to more Elvis and CJ banter - I think it could be quite revealing and it's nice to see CJ interacting with someone at his own level - does anyone know what rank Elvis is? I'm assuming he's and officer but it's not very clear as his team call him boss but that could be anyone more senior than them.

One little nugget that made me grin - the moment when CJ assured Mansfield he'd be alright and they'd get him back to Mansfield and he said "It's Derby knobhead!"
