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.

Thank you

Pressed play...

Pressed play

I hope we have eejit tonight.

Here comes Mr Bates...watch out ex wives everywhere!

Mr Bates is free

Poor Anna deserves a bit of happiness now.

Mr Bates is free again.

I happened to catch a few minutes of Lark Rise to Candleford a couple of days ago and he was in it, looking considerably younger!

Edith has an offer from an editor

Thomas is less pleased to see Mr Bates.

Robert is being his typical encouraging self.

Stay in bed and read books indeed. Poor man has had enough time with nothing to do

Lord G is not happy about Edith's offer of a journalist's post.

Isabel and Violet have one of their chats.

Lord G really is so liberal. I wonder how many employers would be so accommodating...no smoke without fire and all that!

Violet is trying to steer Isabel towards the path she wishes her to take.

Caustic...so many skills!

Oh dear, I think Thomas realises just how disliked he is.

Miss O'Brien...made me me laugh.

Oh dear Lord G going off a bit at Matthew. Parvis is an old timer with back in the dayvideas

Matthew quite rightly wants to drag Downton into the 20th century. Jarvis and Lord G are out of the ark!

Matthew tells it how it is.

Lord G is a bit sulky considering that he desperately needed Matthew's money.

Edith digs her heels in

Edith enlists Isabel's help.
