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. We are now on series 7.

This is just awful - who thought of this??? Zero out of ten for storyline.

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:39

Begin the BEGUINE

eejittwo · 30/03/2021 21:40

Bring back Dr Dull and Biring. This is just awful.

I think Elf should have a go at that new singing show they're trailing on BBC1.

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:41

I think the Colonel is trying to make something of Jessica in a weird sort of way.

The dog has more success than poor Andy!

Epic line - I’m running out of Bivril.

Well the writers of this episode have scraped the barrel as far as I'm concerned. Lost all track of what Soldier Soldier was in the first four or five series,

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:43

Perhaps the Colonel will fail this time,

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:45

Magi there was that little incident in Hong Kong where Dave applied cleaning fluid to his manhood in a mistaken belief of curing a certain condition he had acquired. Ended up with burns!

eejittwo · 30/03/2021 21:45

Easy seeing why it was the last.

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:47

Well done Jessica - last but she did it. Round of applause, I think.

Jessica might have come in last but she's managed it. I hope evil colonel will now eat his words.

More than a touch of the green eyed monster about Chris's attitude towards Angela now.

Showed you Colonel!!

Magi84 · 30/03/2021 21:49

Oh yes Rhu I remember that but somehow this has seemed more sleazy and frankly still trying to make the terrible trio a comedy turn with not much success. As for the greyhound stud - well honestly.

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:50

I agree Magi this episode was diabolical. The Dave incident was typical Dave .

Jessica gets a standing ovation in the mess and Jeremy, bless him, washes her feet for her. What a sweetie he is!

Glad Jessica has come through. Dreadful treatment by the Colonel.

Not sorry that episode is over! At least we are all in agreement.

Love Jeremy though. Now that is a decent bloke.

eejittwo · 30/03/2021 21:54

Anyhow, why were the three not on the ten mile hike

Rhubarb01 · 30/03/2021 21:56

I wonder what else this series has to offer us? It surely can't get any worse than this. It's making me feel uncomfortable in a way that the other series didn't. I bet the three unfunny amigos have erased this episode from their CV's.

eejittwo · 30/03/2021 22:01

He really is so nice. He doesn’t deserve his live life.

eejittwo · 30/03/2021 22:02

I really am counting the weeks till the end of this series.
