[Ilovelblue]

This is our tenth anniversary of sharing our thoughts on Our Girl series one and have subsequently watched the other three series, followed by Soldier Soldier, The Musketeers, Spooks and Hustle so thought it was time to try something different. Please join us and share your thoughts if you have ever been a fan of Downton Abbey. We are currently on series one, episode three.

Looks like the family have been away and are on the way back.

So, William's mum has passed away.

Been away and now home. Ominous date July 1914

Time has moved on it's July 1914 after it all started in April 1912.

Have they been in London for Lady Sybil's "season"?

Gosh that makes her sound like a cat or a dog! Haha.

William's mother has died by the look of it.

War is on the horizon, it's the end of an era.

Still the rumours are circulating about Lady Mary.

Mary still not answered Matthew. Mrs P still a problem too

What's wrong with Lady G?

Oh my goodness, she's pregnant. How will this affect Mary if the baby is a boy?

Blimey, a late baby. That's going to put the cat amongst the pigeons.

Thomas and Miss O'B are absolutely vile.

Coral has some happy news. Mind you another girl wouldn't help

Lord G is very squeamish about Ladies matters.

Ah here comes one of Lady Mary's previous suitors.

Ah, Evelyn Napier again.

He comes with news of the Mr Pamuk rumours. He tells Mary that it is her own sister who is the source of the rumours.

Mr Napier confirms the rumours about Lady M and Mr Pamuk. Now she knows that it wasn't Evelyn who grassed but Edith.

Oh heck apier has told Mary about the Letter from Edith

Yes, Cora there are thousands of things worse than losing your maid.

Violet as gentle as a lamb

Losing your lady's maid is surely a first world problem.

Oh, Thomas you horrible man!

The baby really confuses matters for Matthew and everyone else it seems

Dawdling your life away? Gosh, this family are so snobbish.

Aunt Rosamund is putting in the boot for Matthew.
