Yes you are fit Elvis

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:49

"You fit?" Oh yes Elvis, you are fit. Very apt response.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:50

Oh dear, dear, dear - wish I'd buried it somewhere else.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:50

I might have to turn away when they shoot Kiki. It makes me cringe.

Elvis to the rescue.....

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:52

Poor kid - he looks horrified by what they made him do.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:52

I always notice all those plastic bags on the fence.

Poor Kiki

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:53

There they go - deserting the sinking ship.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:54

Come on Elvis - nearly time to slide down that rope.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:54

I can look again now I think. I usually fast forward over Kiki dying.

Elvis gets ready to descend.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:55

I like the way he puts his arm round her.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:56

Twirly arm and up they go.

I just love the ending to this - what a wallop and what a girl.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:56

Ooops, wait for it Elvis.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:57

And here endeth episode 2.

How was that Rhu? It was the IloveRhubarb show tonight.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 21:57

Love the way she grits her teeth when she hits him.

Sigh - love that long look he gives her too as if thinking - well I sort of deserved that but I did just save your life if that counts at all.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:59

I must admit that even though he jilted her, I think I would have a certain amount of gratitude to demonstrate towards him knowing he'd saved my life.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 21:59

Guess she's in shock, but in episode 3, I think she's just a tiny bit mean to him.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 22:00

Yes it was wasn't it ilove. Still as you and I are almost the only ones who like Elvis on here I suppose it's appropriate that we comment on his best episode. I hope next series he might win over a few more of the MN regulars who didn't like him much.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 22:02

In real life, you wouldn't give him a second chance really knowing what he'd done to you on your wedding day but it's fiction and we can daydream! You're right though, I think we are the only ones who like him.

I think Luke has a real following so I guess the next series will have all his fans watching.

Rhubarb01 · 10/09/2017 22:24

Sorry, just 'went off' to read back through. I answer to your question about the time in captivity ilove yes I do wonder how long in total she has been held before Elvis turns up. It only seems like two days but I guess it must have been longer before the video emerged. One of the things that bugged me a bit was the absence of any indication of time either by indicating a passage of time by a collection of scenes or even that device of simply putting up timescales on the corner of the screen. I always felt as if she'd been in Kenya for two days before she was held hostage for another two days and then sent home. I know it can't possibly be the case but there just wasn't any sense of time.

Oh well, perhaps it will be more obvious next time. Well, I'm off to catch up with SCD as I haven't seen it yet. I might fast forward bits like the guest artists etc.

Can't wait for episode 3 and a little of CJ's bedside manner. Sweet dreams.

Ilovelblue · 10/09/2017 22:28

Night night. Till next Sunday (though hopefully before??)

Tommieo · 10/09/2017 22:51

Just read through your comments will watch later. Friend just 'popped round' and has just left!!

Then almost at the same time DH returned. Doesn't know about this so will leave the watching, I agree this was a very good episode with lots of our TWO favourite men I do like Elvis but am afraid my loyalties lie with CJ.
Dr Boring definitely NOT
Luckily it was also one I had watched fairly often so could relate to your comments
Goodnight, I think ice may have been busy with the new little school boy. A very important time.

icemist · 11/09/2017 13:45

I will get to watch-along... bloody kids. Spent 20 mins talking to littlest about school.... he's got great delaying tactics at times. Read a story, have a drink, need a wee

Was so bloody annoyed!

Tommieo · 11/09/2017 14:40

There are pictures of Lacey Turner's wedding on mail on line. She looks so beautiful but unfortunately not with 'our man'.

I wonde if this will change her mind about OG Ithink not as she says she wants four children !!!!

Tommieo · 13/09/2017 21:07

At last I have managed to watch Ep 2 and read your comments. As usual I noticed bits I had missed before.

Some good bits from Malaysia on instagram and twitter but not many photos of CJ. They seem to be making the best of their time off to see the area which is good for them. Makes up for being away from home for so long, although I think it seems as if most of them are single and fancy free
Hopefully a more peaceful Sunday this week so until then as everything is very quiet on here at the moment.
Bye the way new STAG shortbread tin in M&S today when I was there!!!!its only September!

Ilovelblue · 13/09/2017 22:56

I do quite enjoy those watchalongs/type-alongs Tommieo and the hour flies past but I know the episodes so well now that I can almost anticipate what I am going to write. It certainly keeps my typing speeds up!

I wish we had some indication of when OG might be screened. I binge watched "Trust Me" a couple of weeks ago which I really enjoyed. Not sure if anyone else saw it? I liked the first episode of the new series of Dr Foster with Suranne Jones but not sure I was very enamoured with the episode last night.
