Our Girl Series 4 - **Title edited by MNHQ**

[Ilovelblue]

We have been discussing Our Girl from the first series back in 2014 and are now on thread 55!

Oh yes, though I have had it since the first series of Our Girl!

No, ilove, the whole of Series 3 wasn't bad - just most of it! The last ten minutes of episode 2, the whole of episode 3 and episode 4 up to the explosion - basically the Milan- and Thara-free bits ...
But then I'm biased. I never have liked broccoli ...

Tell you what eejit, I didn't have to think too hard to picture those parts of series 3 you enjoyed!

PS: I quite like broccoli but not the OG variety!

I hope this week's episode of OG is as good as last week's! Are we ready to tune in at 9pm?

Yes iLove I will be present and correct for tonight's episode. It's good to be looking forward to something and I must admit this series has really come up to scratch so far.

Who is the actress playing the psychologist? She looks a bit like Liz White?

Gosh, only one more episode to go. I will be sorry when it's finished. Not entirely sure I'll be having withdrawal symptoms like I had with series 1 and 2 but I am really enjoying it. There's plenty of tension.

Looking forward to hearing what everyone else thinks.

I liked the appearance of Flash, the military dog. It reminded me of those photos of Elvis with that dog. Those scenes were never shown in the series unfortunately. Was it called Pyro?

Sorry Birdie, I don't think I've ever seen that actress before.

birdie I think it was Liz White too. She's a good actress. Quite liked that episode and a mention of CJ at last!

I recognize her.... not sure where from though!

She was in Life on Mars as the WPC and lots of other things.

No mention of Milan or JJ though.

Still haven't watched any of it back yet, although I enjoy reading your musings

What was the mention of CJ rhu ?

The less said about those two eejit the better. Especially drippy Milan!

My only complaint is there’s only one clin psych in the army...and she just happens to be in Afghan! And her rank slides were that of a major, not a captain.

kazza when Georgie had her evaluation and was talking about Elvis, she said there had been other people and mentioned Captain James. She said it was a rebound comfort thing. Definitely nothing serious. That was all. Just a crumb...

Have we come to a conclusion about Dr Antonio's part in this? More than just a pretty boy for our combined delectation and delight?

Omg saw the trailer for next week 😯, can not wait!

So ilove I'm still holding out for Dr Antonio not being a bad guy, just a doctor doing his duty even if Georgie doesn't like it much. Somehow, I can't imagine he is going to turn out to be Omar! She might think Dr Dishy is complicit, but I hope not beyond doing his job as a medic. Clearly, he does like the look of Georgie - just imagine how pleased Mama Lane would be for Georgie to bring home another beneficiary of God's pencil!

Rhu that made me laugh. I had totally forgotten about God's pencil. Gosh that was such a cringeworthy statement.

I reckon he fancies his chances with Georgie but do hope for her own sanity and self-respect that she repels any advances.

I'd like them to be friends so that perhaps one day in the future when she's a happier and healthier woman she can make a considered choice, if he's still interested. I think she could do worse...unless he's really a baddie - oh I do hope not

I'm a week behind - just watched last week's but sadly had seen a spoiler online so knew what was coming. One thing I've noticed is back this series is the soundtrack - much more of a feature again reminiscent of series 1, and they actually advertised it for sale at the end of episode 2. Perhaps they realised it was a false economy to scrimp on the soundtrack?

Hi Always hope you are well! Yes, the soundtrack has been so much better this series. I've noticed that too. Everything about this series is so much better. I've really enjoyed it.

I've seen some very interesting theories circulating about next week's episode - all hypothetical but very creative. I'm genuinely looking forward to see how this is resolved, and I would love to be completely surprised by what happens.

Well I really enjoyed this episode. Lots of content. Beginning of hoping viewers will see Throbber in a better light and showing Cheese's hang-ups and attitude to the Afghans.

However where Georgie is concerned I'd have to admit that army purists, who have a far greater knowledge of military practices and regulations, would have lots to challenge in regard to her psych assessment and the rather rapid decision she is not suffering from PTSD as well as grieving.

I suppose it is fair to say lots of poetic (or tv) licence applies and of course it is not a documentary it is a drama.
