[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.

Always tricky stuff but no lasers in those days, just a surgeon with a knife.

Oh Daisy that's sabotage

Mary confronts Edith and Edith calls her a slut.

Mine wasn't lasered, it was a replacement lens. I was driving two days later thankfully.

Violet puts Isabel right about who is to blame for the Matthew situation.

Poor Matthew, what a rotten situation.

Thomas just never stops

Ah, Mrs Bird is much nicer than we thought. Bark worse than her bite.

Sybil the recruitment agent!

Sybil intervenes to help Gwen get an interview.

Poor little Daisy. Mrs Bird was kind though

Thomas trying too get an easy job in the war effort

Now the two cooks are in cahoots against Mrs Hughes!

Mrs Patmore has found an ally in Mrs Bird.

I love Carson's approach to the new fangled invention aka the telephone.

Carson practices his telephone voice but ends up speaking to the exchange and seeming a real chump!

O'Brien is eavesdropping again but is listening to a conversation that is not about her. Serves her right.

Now Mrs P and Mrs B are joining forces and Mrs Hughes is sidelined

O'Brien shifts the soap into the room...
