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 three, episode seven.

A few ghosts laid to rest here.

I'd love it if they'd do a quick tap dance or something for old times sake!

Ilovelblue · 04/06/2025 21:48

That seemed quick tonight.

I do hope we're all back together for next week.

Yes, it was a shorter episode but brewing and stewing nicely.

Hopefully, everyone can make it next week. Have a good week!

Very humble apologies from me Ilove and Rhu for my non appearance last night. Can’t quite believe it happened. I read the post from eejit earlier in the day and was all set to be on parade. However I was reading during the evening and must have fallen asleep around ten minutes to nine. Well that proved not to be just a little doze as I didn’t wake up till ten past ten. What was even worse though was I then promptly just got ready for bed and drifted off beautifully only to wake up at around midnight with the realisation that I had missed our rendezvous. Need I say that of course I then had trouble getting back to sleep! I will be with you next week I promise.

Don't worry about it Magi. I have somehow fallen into the bad habit of having more than 40 winks in the evening and I can't always get to sleep very quickly once I do go to bed. I never used to be like this when I was working. I put it down to retirement.

See you next week (hopefully).

Hi ladies - getting buttons and boots polished ready for parade.

Ilovelblue · 11/06/2025 21:05

Oh Carson, you are not adapting to this post war world.

Awkward conversation between Mary and Tony Gillingham.

Rhubarb01 · 11/06/2025 21:06

Edna is trying to start conversations with Tom again. Gosh she's annoying. Tom tell her to keep to her place!

Magi84 · 11/06/2025 21:06

All sorts of small talk. Al Jolson and April Showers how with it

Rhubarb01 · 11/06/2025 21:07

Some excitement for Rose at last.
