We have been following Our Girl since 2014 and although there are to be no further series, we revisit time and time again to discuss. As an alternative, we are also watching the 1990s series of Soldier Soldier.

So Jeremy and the Colonel's wife have had a night of passion.

My goodness - Jeremy's career will surely be over if he and Sarah stay together.

Chris finds Aoife in the park at 6am.

I was just thinking ‘Oops!’

eejittwo · 02/02/2021 21:05

No, Mrs Colonel...

Rhubarb01 · 02/02/2021 21:06

Chris is playing at Daddy with Aoife and Liam

Andy is seriously drunk and out of it. Not a good move when they have an exercise coming up.

Aoife and Liam are still around. He is certainly a handsome little chap. How convenient that Aiofe has managed to find herself a teaching job locally.

Steve is saying they are likely to be sent off to war. Ominous.

I like Steve’s action replay.
Actually, I think Steve is a really good guy.

Looks like Chris has made his mind up now Angie has left the home. Can't say I think much of his attitude to this. Poor Angie.

Here's Major Tim...want to say 'Major Tim but Dim' but maybe not.

Ah the lovely Major Tim is back again. Can't remember where he's been.

War in the South Atlantic? This must be a take on the Falklands War on some weird and unheard of island?

Looks like this is an exercise to check readiness - preparation to leave at very short notice.

Rhubarb01 · 02/02/2021 21:12

Stacey Elf is very cross with Andy - looks like she can drive more than just a car.

Rhubarb01 · 02/02/2021 21:12

Andy you are digging yourself a big hole here!

Stacey Elf is such a strange little character. Wherever they went last night, it sounds as if Andy disgraced himself.

Yep, they're off to war. 48 hours and then ..... Gosh, lots of death letters and suchlike to write I guess.

Enthusiastic clapping from the lads - oh I hope they know what they are letting themselves in for.

Tim asks Sam out to dinner - shades of Kieran and Kate and the eve of Bosnia again.

Isn’t there a Patrick O’Brien novel where they sail around Deliverance Island, somewhere between Australia and the Antarctic.

Oooooh Sam and Major Tim are getting together at long last.

I actually thought it was a made up name eejit so I've just googled it - no idea about the novel but yes, it is somewhere in that area.

Here's the grim stuff - wills and letters. Followed by POW's info.

eejittwo · 02/02/2021 21:20

Just checked - it was Desolation Island
