The Our Girl Addicts Thread 74 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 two, episode seven.

Like Sir Pilchard! ❤️

Lord G gives Sybil and Tom his blessing. He doesn't want to part on a bad note.

Oh dear Matthew is really feeling all kinds awful. We must be strong Mary and here is Sir R always where he isn't really wanted

Violet is already working on how they can elevate Tom into something more socially acceptable.

His Lordship finally remotely understanding that they are in earnest and want to make a life together

Lord G has had a change of heart thank goodness.

Mr Bates returns from the funeral to find two police officers who have arrested him for murder...the first Mrs Bates strikes back!

Find a cliff and dangle off it.

The series ends on a cliffhanger as Mr Bates is about to be arrested for the murder of his ex wife.

Mr Bates charged with murder. What a cliffhanger

Sorry you'll miss the Christmas special next week eejit. We'll see you on Monday 10th. This year is flying by!

The next episode is the first Christmas special which continues the story before the start of series 3. When will we be watching that one?

I couldn't do Wednesday 12th, so I thought we agreed on Monday 10th for the start of series 3?

Christmas special next week and start series 3 on the 10th March is what I thought.

Actually on Netflix they call the Xmas special episode 9 of series 2.

Ok, thanks everyone. Back next Wednesday for the Christmas/Episode 9 and then Monday 10th for Series 3 episode 1.

Have a good week everyone

Well, here we are at the end of series 2. I hope I manage to stay awake throughout. It's a long one tonight.

Standing by for our Christmas treat

Pressed play

A hive of activity on Christmas preparstions

Christmas Day and the staff get their presents. Mr Bates is still in prison. It's not looking good.
