Our Girl and Captain James XLVII

[Ilovelblue]

Not much longer to wait out for the Nigeria episodes! Some of us are still mourning the death of Elvis.

If he expects a thank you from Georgie, I think he may wait a long time Rhu.

She does seem a bit close and emotional with CJ there. If there hadn't been a Molly, I could have possibly accepted this shifting of emotions but I just can't because of Molly and CJ.

Nice British accents from the cockpit (I'd assume they would be Belizan pilots, too, or not?)

I absolutely do not get the reference to a baby elephant shaped cloud. I can't even make it out myself. He's mad.

Bit of a series 1 throwback with the helicopter evac.

Actually ilove Bones does come across a bit unhinged in that cloud moment.

"All due respect" - precisely none in my opinion.

Poor Georgie. I hope she had a long hot shower.

Can somebody explain it when the Brig asks who is Bones' CO? Is it a hint that he's going to become part of Two Section to replace CJ?

There really seems to be history between the Brigadier and Bones ... (Bones seems to have left the Brigadiers' regiment for SF).

I wonder what Georgie thinks about CJ returning and more to the point what on earth does she think about Captain Angry being in charge. He is miserable and he comes across as very petulant and unprofessional.

Two Section is down to five people.

Oh dear, the new CO presents himself. He looks thrilled (not).

Bones is mega pissed off!

Meanwhile it's the next version of "I'm a celebrity get me out of the jungle!"

Or more approriately, "I'm a soldier, get me out of the jungle."

Because Bones answers "You are, sir, but ..." and then very quickly shuts up, because of the thinly veiled thread of being returned to unit from the SF.

Yet again, we're not aware of the timescales. Bones talks of regimental duties and yet the next episode is in Bangladesh. Are we probably moving forward six months?

So, they are off to Bangladesh. What could possibly go wrong? We've had Brains upset because his parents are breaking up, Monk finding out his girlfriend is pregnant, Maisie discovering she is jealous of the nurse who got off with Rab, Georgie working through the loss of Elvis. CJ 's problems (which are still being pondered). Reckon it's got to be something about Kingy - or we're going to find a softer side of Bones.
Wish we could get a tad more of Spanner and Peanut, though.

"Wish we could get a tad more of Spanner and Peanut, though."

We got a bit of Peanut this week, with him giving his insights to the Brigadier while manning the Tent HQ.
Otherwise we'll just have to make up a story for them!

I like Peanut! Not in an Elvis or CJ sort of way but he seems a solid, reliable, dependable sort of guy.

I like Spanner in the same way. I reckon he'd be good company - maybe a wee bit laconic, but I'm sure it's not just because he's junior to Bones that he doesn't have hissy fits!.
Wonder what happened to Spunky and Jackson?

Rhubarb I noticed your comment saying OG had been bumped to Wednesday next week due to the football so was looking to see when Holby is on. The England game is on ITV. The BBC are showing DIY SOS and Death in Paradise at 8pm and 9pm. How odd

Paddington in the RT guide I have for this week both ITV and BBC had given schedules stating 'if they show the game' or 'if they don't show the game'. In that version they were going to show OG at 9pm on Tuesday if they didn't show the game but I reckon they've taken the decision not to put it up against the England match as it probably won't be watched.

Paddington are you a Holby fan too? I've watched it from the beginning but think the storylines at the moment are utter rubbish.

Rhubard they'd probably get more viewers than normal as people who aren't interested flick aimlessly looking for something to watch!!

I am Ilove although it's very difficult with the current storylines as you say!! Are you on the Holby thread?
