The Our Girl Addicts Thread 72 Stay focused, Stay alert, Stay alive and carry on....spying

[Ilovelblue]

We started to follow Our Girl back in 2014 and although there will be no further series, we do revisit from time to time. We have watched all seven series of Soldier Soldier to keep up our military terminology and have galloped through the three series of of The Musketeers. There was a definite connection between Our Girl and The Musketeers in the delightful form of Luke Pasqualino. We are currently part way through series 8 of Spooks. Having recently witnessed the demise of Adam Carter in the last series, he has been replaced by Lucas North.

We are in the final stages of series 9. We start series 10 very soon.

If only that was the worst problem in the world

Oh good Mary doesn't fancy the Duke after all

Nice one Edith! Never misses a trick.

It's the first playing of what I think of as Anna and Mr Bates's theme. They always have a particular bit of music.

Ah, she feels a connection to him.

So the Duke is broke and is looking for a heiress to prop him up financially and now Mary doesn't fit the bill.

Oh his Lordship has the measure of the Duke.

Can't really blame Edith for her schadenfreude!

So, the Duke and Thomas have a prior connection and it's not entirely work-related

Obviously the Duke has his eye on Thomas really

The Duke was searching for the incriminating letters in Thomas's drawers earlier and he found them.

I had forgotten we knew so early on about Thomas beeing gay.

Nice one Cora..."She might have been happy with a fortune hunter...I was!"

Lord G has a change of mind and Mr Bates gets a reprieve.

Meanwhile...we get a first glimpse of the new heir. It's Matthew!!!

Good one your Lordship

I enjoyed that. It really is so full of info and by the end of that first episode you feel that you know who's who and what motivates everyone.

Change their lives indeed.

Yes Rhu, I really had forgotten so much of the back story there.

Great stuff certainly enjoying this again.

I can't make next week but will certainly get a chance to watch the episode and be with you again on 13th Nov

Ah... on that date, I will be incapacitated I think, could we make it 11 or 12 November, do you think?

Either date will be fine for me.

I can't do11th or 12th but could do 14th or 15th

15th should be ok. Rhu? Eejit?
