Can you believe we are on thread 50! This is for all discussions on the BBC series Our Girl and any possible future series. Reference to Captain James is particularly welcome.

That tune is really addictive after a while!

This is reminiscent of the miner's strike.

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:03

Gosh does she expect that little lad to eat all those boxes of cereal.

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:04

Donna looks rough this morning - oh domestic bliss. I've still got some plates like those.

Preview of no-deal?

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:05

My dog has just done a growly twirl at the sight of those rats.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:05

'Tan your backside' - long time since I heard that expression.

Fair takes you back.

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:07

This is awkward with members of the same family either side of the divide - oh yes eejit it is like Brexit

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:08

This isn't my favourite episode but it's better than the one next week.

Definitely reminiscent of the miners' strike Rhu.

Is it me or do they not sound like they've got the same accents?

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:09

Shall we just do a synopsis of episode 4 and go straight on to episode 5?

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:09

I do like the Colonel's sarcastic remark about joining the army.

Can you imagine a teacher today, dealing with fighting kids like that?

Here's Mr Pascoe!

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:10

Ah yes, Lt Pascoe to the rescue.

Who remembers "Hallo Darling...ha,ha,ha,ha!" dear of Ed Stewpot Stewart!

Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:12

Think how times have changed since this was made, with all the recycling. There is nothing but landfill rubbish here.

eejittwo · 24/01/2019 21:13

Should have more or less the same accent. In those days there was still a bit of joining the local regiment, before they were amalgamated out of distinction.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:13

Donna is not cut out to be an army wife, is she?

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:14

Did anyone understand what Donna just said? I think she was a bit cross.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:14

Donna is so similar to a Geordie woman I used to work with both in accent and attitude, it's scary.

"That old devil called love" - here comes Paddy Garvey.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:16

Lurking near ladies' toilets is never a good idea Paddy.

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 24/01/2019 21:17

She's harsh, but you know she doesn't really mean it.

Ilovelblue · 24/01/2019 21:17

She has plenty of put-downs at her disposal does Nancy.
