Our Girl and Captain James XLVIII

[Ilovelblue]

All discussion on the latest series of Our Girl, with particular reference to Captain James, is welcome here.

Can you imagine how smelly it would have been on that plane with all those minging soldiers returning from Afghan with yellow grime in their hair.

Poor Mrs Smurf. She has suffered.

Have to confess that most of this bit when they are home on leave bores me rigid.

Need to check on the cake.... back shortly.

It would have been such a big detour to go to Newport via East Ham!

Let go, Smurf, let go, let go!

Um, so this is the Rosabaya moment - and I associate that music with Kenya

First signs of too much jitterbug in Smurf's head.

If I'd said F to my Mum at that age she would have clipped me round the ear'ole - I bet she'd still do it now.

A reminder that Molly lives in a multi-cultural city. It's more familiar that she imagined.

I REALLY don’t like Smurf.

With you on that eejit. Never did understand why, at the beginning of episode 5 (which is when we were wondering whether CJ would die) why there were certain people who wanted Molly to be with Smurf.

Actually eejit I don't think most of us remembered the music from Kenya and series 2 as having been in series 1. We tended to focus on the songs in the score but then series 2 had no songs and only the soundtrack so it became more familiar.

Watch out Belinda's got potential.

Shazza is so funny - Felicity wants to be called Shazza, hilarious.

Ha ha! Onions out of the camper van...can't wait!

Enter Shazza.

She's weird!

"I'm really sorry for what you're having to go through at the moment". What a strange thing to say to a soldier, even if you are more of a pacifist yourself.

Hey! I make my own soup. Though I don't have a camper van.

Bella is TG's daughter in real life isn't she?

Molly has to acknowledge that she has changed and now it's inspired her mother to do likewise.

Nan is hilarious as well with her unrequited feelings for Princess Grace of Monaco.

Weird or not, Shazza is right about Belinda trying to become a teaching assistant and Dave should lend a hand.

Get a camper van ilove - it's all the rage - you could call yourself Blazza!

I feel like Bashira "Don't got to Newport!!"

Smurf to the rescue maybe!? Molly will find out what a real sh*thole Newport is.

Even "go to Newport"

Ditch the cheapo flowers Smurf, she doesn't like them!

Warning bells there Molly. She should have realised that the flowers were a sign to stay distant.

What a waste of flowers. Hope somebody rescues them.

She’s home -yeah, I know I’m behind

I reckon that Molly is so caught up with her feelings for CJ that she's lost all sense of caution with Smurf. In any other circumstances she would have realised the danger and kept him entirely at arms length.
