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

Don't think the wedding could be prior to afghan as he had 5 medals on his blues but beck said he was on his 4 tour in series 1 if I remember rightly. Although I could have made that up I'm knackered now what with all the excitement

pixieg1rl · 07/09/2016 23:13

Bit dim but some stills of shirt off Elvis for you woof. I have visions of you jumping out of the wardrobe at MrWoof after making him scale the gutters and leap over the shed.

MaddieMoo82 · 07/09/2016 23:13

Although as moo rightly pointed out maybe we should not question limps and timelines Wink

cjwoofwoof · 07/09/2016 23:14

Good points Rhu you're very clever at working timelines out etc. Me, I'm just interested in Elvis's abs - have I mentioned that?

Ilovelblue · 07/09/2016 23:16

I know woof is less than enamoured with Elvis, but can we all remember that we saw more of him in the first few minutes of this episode than we did of Molly and CJ in the Bailbrook House scenes and back at his house.....

PassTheCremeEggs · 07/09/2016 23:17

The medals were Kosovo (I think), Iraq, Afghan and the two Jubilee medals I believe. You only get one medal for each campaign so if you've done more than one tour in eg Afghanistan you only get the one medal. So number of medals doesn't necessarily relate to number of tours unless every tour was a different campaign

cjwoofwoof · 07/09/2016 23:17

You see my point pix ? Not enough £££ spent on a decent torch so we can all enjoy the view in peace. Much room for improvement I feel. I've seen more flesh down an 18th Century Cornish tin mine lately tsk tsk

MaddieMoo82 · 07/09/2016 23:21

Ah thanks creme that makes more sense. I was trying to remember how many medals he had on at smurfs funeral but my brain has turned off.

cjwoofwoof · 07/09/2016 23:23

Just for the record pix after DHs bellend behaviour tonight I'm more likely to be pushing him OUT of the bedroom window tonight than allowing him to Elvisingly ravish my cellulite-covered curves Angry

MaddieMoo82 · 07/09/2016 23:24

Same woof! MrMads went to bed once it finished which allowed me to rewind a couple of bits and sit a bit closer to the screen!

pixieg1rl · 07/09/2016 23:25

I had heard that one of the jubilee medals would only have been there had CJ been in the army aged 12. Maybe he's cheating and sticking on his DofE Gold medal (he so would have done DofE gold, the kiss arse)

Heligirl79 · 07/09/2016 23:30

He had 4 medals at smurfs funeral mads. And yes pix*, he so would have done DofE gold.

PassTheCremeEggs · 07/09/2016 23:30

Haha pixie - he must be doing even worse at getting promoted if he's been in since he was 12! And I think that's probably right - second from the left is (I think) the golden jubilee medal which he (I think) would have had to have already served for five years by 2002 so perhaps rather than joining at 12 he's actually about 47?!

cjwoofwoof · 07/09/2016 23:30

Ditto mads my DH skulked off to bed before 10 thinking he was making his point, but as I was holed up in DSs bedroom totally absorbed despite background Spotify music, kids taking showers, general bleeder yah boo I missed his show of defiance, hah!

cjwoofwoof · 07/09/2016 23:32

Well if he is 47 that explains the dodgy teeth

Rhubarb01 · 07/09/2016 23:33

Ok away from CJ and Elvis (sorry woof) - the kidnap of the aid worker character, Kiki, happened a bit quickly and I found it hard to work out what exactly was going on in that camp, who's in charge etc but I suppose Georgie doesn't really understand it either, so we're in the same boat as her. I assume that Kiki will reappear when it gets to rescue time.

Also keep forgetting to feel worried about Mansfield, let's hope it's just a flesh wound.

I liked the comment they make about CJ "He likes a medic!" reminds me of Smurf's snide comment about Molly when he was trying to blacken her reputation.

SoEverybodyDance · 07/09/2016 23:36

you're right Pix best wait for things to develop...

bit worried about CJ as well... if he just marches around looking hot and saying ASAP that will be gratuitous and I'll be disappointed. Something's got to happen to him to make us care... remember when we spent a week worrying that he was going to die? That's the most intense involvement I've ever had with a TV series/fictional character... so this series better not disappoint!

not that I wouldn't object to a bit of CJ naked shower action Woofy we've definitely been cheated out of that!

Ilovelblue · 07/09/2016 23:39

Bottom line folks is that you have a full week to wait to find out what happens next..............

In the meantime, I might have to replay the Elvis/Georgie scenes at the beginning a couple of or twenty times.

Nickel45 · 07/09/2016 23:54

Hi I'm new here, it's been bugging me was that Callum from coronation street with the shaved head? Really know the actor but can't place where from.
It bugged me how she was perfectly made up with all her false eyelashes and plumped up lips, not really military regs is it.
