Changed the name of this thread as we were very upset with the ending of series 3 out in Bangladesh! Waiting out for news of series 4. In the meantime, we are reviewing the seven series of Soldier Soldier.

Why do they always speak to Tucker?
"Splendid" which is code for "What an idiot!"

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:45

Oh the boxing match, such joy!!

Is this the second or third boxing match we've had to endure?

So, Kate has managed to make amends for her earlier rather emotional words.

Oh, here comes the boxing bit...

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:47

Luke's opponent is evil.

Rhubarb01 · 18/06/2019 21:47

Can't they have a football match or something else

eejittwo · 18/06/2019 21:47

So Kate’s really annoyed with herself.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:47

Poor Kate having to sit through this match AND have to fight off Captain Mike at the same time.

Rhubarb01 · 18/06/2019 21:49

Kate is trying to ignore Captain Mike. Is he right that she would still have gone to the hotel with him if she'd known he was married? Perhaps she's questioning herself about that one.

eejittwo · 18/06/2019 21:49

Don’t dress up in fancy uniforms to watch a football match. Never understood why boxing is a black tie event but then I’m a girly

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:49

Blue boxer was a downright thug.

Oh my goodness - I don't blame Bernie for being horrified.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:51

Agree with you there eejit.

So when are we doing the next episode? I am fine for Tuesday or Thursday next week.

Rhubarb01 · 18/06/2019 21:52

What a monstrosity that dress is. Kieran is giving her a stern look, poor Kate, that's how you learn the hard way.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 21:53

It's odd, isn't it Rhu that the men look so handsome in their dress uniforms yet the women are quite dowdy.

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 18/06/2019 21:56

The dresses are just square, shapeless, ugly things, although, I think I've seen ladies versions of the men's with the tailored red jackets but long black skirts.

eejittwo · 18/06/2019 21:57

Think about it. The men have had centuries to perfect dress uniforms to set them off to best advantage whereas women have only started. Do’t want to look too ‘glam’ in case men don’t take them seriously.

eejittwo · 18/06/2019 21:58

Thursday next week is fine for me.

Magi84 · 18/06/2019 22:01

Hi Ilove , Rhu and eejit have to agree with you all re the amount of boxing there has been so far in Soldier Soldier. I am wondering if nowadays it is actually as popular in the army as it was in earlier times. We did see a glimmer of a kick about type of football in the Nigeria tour of OG but not much other sport mentioned.

I had a refresher look at this episode earlier today so that I could follow your comments better, my binge watching was way back in January so I was pleased to find I enjoyed it all once more.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 22:06

Hi Magi. How are you? We've not seen much of you lately.

I am watching the news to see if I missed anything in the Boris v the rest debate. I wouldn't trust any single one of them personally.

OP posts:
Magi84 · 18/06/2019 22:09

Ilove hi all well here thanks. I am watching bits of the debate now too and honestly nobody fills me with any confidence. They just go on and on. Really wouldn't know who to vote for if it was my job to decide on any one of them.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 22:14

I'm the same. Boris is a total buffoon. If I had to choose, I would go for Jeremy Hunt but it has to be said that I have no time for any of them really.

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 18/06/2019 22:14

Hi Magi hope you are well! Glad you enjoyed this one. I like that we are starting to see Kieran and Kate's "friendship" developing.

I am also catching the news - just the same old, same old, it seems. What on earth are we all supposed to do - it just seems so hopeless and pointless.

I can do either day next week. If Thursday is preferred, that's fine with me.

Ilovelblue · 18/06/2019 22:26

Thursday it is then.

Are we ready and waiting or are we wiped out with the heat?
