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.

Pressed play...

Episode 7 here we come.

1919 and the soldiers are finally gone. Back to normal...

Lady Edith is without a job again.

Life getting back to normal at Downton. His Lordship suspicious re Mary

Oh dear, Matthew is still squatting at Downton. Are they going to throw him out?

Love Carson's thinly disguised disdain for how things have gone with standards slipping.

Lord G and the Housemaid still on friendly terms.

Ah yes, Jane the housemaid. Lord G has taken quite an interest in her and her son.

The First World War took such a toll on communities as Lord G outlines.

Here he is the dashing fiance of Lady Mary.

Thomas is a pain and so rude

The not so charming Sir Richard.

Thomas is planning to become a spiv by the sounds of it.

Who was the spiv character in Dad's Army?

Lord G is giving an update for the war memorial, clearly.

Private Walker.

Lord G is thinking aloud about a lot of things at present to the servants.

Meanwhile, Anna is invited into Sir Richard's room....oooh!

I loved Private Walker, not like Thomas at all.

Oh Anna is not the type to act as a spy for Sir Richard

Sir Richard wants Anna to spy. He clearly doesn't know her at all. Not everyone can be bought.

He’s such a creep

Here's Isabel supporting the modern ways as ever.

Sir Richard is quite a despicable character but it's lovely to hear of Anna's loyalty to the Grantham/Crawley family.

I’ll stick to the chaise longue too.

Matthew betrays himself a bit by commenting on Mary's hair. Poor Lavinia.
