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 Having recently witnessed the demise of Adam Carter in the last series, he has been replaced by Lucas North.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.

Rhu I pretty much agree with your deliberations on Strictly! We have shared our bets between Tasha, Jamie, Sarah and Montell. Chris is still the bookies' favourite but we decided he could only win on the public vote as he's not the best dancer though is doing amazingly well considering his disability. Better than I would do, that's for sure! Diane must be a great teacher.

See you all next Friday. Hope I'm recovered ok but if not, I'll let you know ahead of episode 3.

I see our friend Micky Bricks (Adrian Lester) is introducing the Festival of Remembrance this year.

I see Adrian Lester has achieved National Treasure status - he’s compering the Festival of Remembrance!

Also notice it’s featured a female Afghan medic.

Didn’t see this asumsnet was slow I updating - sorry.

Don't worry about it.

To my shame, I fell asleep and missed half of the part where different branches of the Armed Forces march in. It's my favourite part too. Mind you, it does always make me cry as well.

Evening all

This is the link to the new thread. Can you believe we are on number 73! Did we ever think ten years ago that we'd still be going!

See you all on Friday at 9 pm.

Did you miss the bit that featured a female medic in Afghan?
Anyhow, getting ready for parade.

All set for episode 3

I almost forgot about tonight! Just in time.

Pressed play

Are we all here?

Evening all. Pressed play.

What on earth is in that suitcase?

So, what is the maid hiding?

How awful for Lady Mary that everyone is desperate to get her married off.

She's bought a typewriter! She's learning shorthand and typing.

What a life...tell him to send the horses up in advance!

Has no one ever heard her typing before? It's not as though those things are quiet.

Oh dear the poor old maid is losing her bloom...she's supposed to be about 22!!

Well, if she doesn’t marry well, what is she going to live on?

Edith is now having a try for Matthew

It's a bit Mrs Bennet yet again, isn't it?

Watch out Matthew...Edith is setting her cap at you.

O'Brien strikes again!!
