The Our Girl Addicts Thread 73 Stay focused. we're now watching Downton Abbey

[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.

I think the wife (whose name I can't remember) might be a little suspicious of Lady Edith.

Lady Edith is being a bit flirtatious with the farmer. oops, making the farmer's wife feel small is not a good move.

Poor old Dr Clarkson getting it in the neck about his decisions.

Dr Clarkson does not like his judgement to be called into question.

Carson and Mrs Hughes are like an old married couple.

Shortage of beds sounds familiar

"Mrs Hughes is having trouble keeping him in bed." ooh...er...missus!

The young soldier has committed suicide.

Oh, no. The blind Lieutenant has killed himself. How dreadful.

Lady Rosamund is suspicious of Sir R and Lavinia

Mary gets a proposal of marriage from Richard. What a romantic proposal...not!

Lady Mary gets a marriage proposal on the railway station from Sir Richard. It's not the most romantic of proposals, more like a business proposition!

The Dr surely knows he was too harsh. Thomas really had feelings for him

Not the most heartfelt proposal.but honest I suppose

What a lovely garden.

Hospital is overwhelmed

Yes, Mary... how can you possibly say something like that. Got to agree with Lavinia there.

Mary bailed on telling Matthew that she loves him. A bit difficult after Lavinia's words.

Ooooh Molesley, you fast mover!

Not sure I'd compare Mr Bates with a child...

Edith! You hussy.

Edith and Mr Drake have a tryst in the barn. Gosh he's a bit audacious.

Blimey Edith that is a bit much

What can be worse than dead...shot for cowardice...that was so awful in WW1

Poor Mrs Patmore her nephew has been shot for cowardice. That was a terrible business during WW1
