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 four, episode eight.

Violet not keen for Isobel to be a Lady

Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:12

Looks like Robert's nose is a little out of joint over the war memorial.

Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:12

Oh dear, Robert mentioned Isabel being a great lady of the county and that made Violet blanch a little Grin

Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:13

Mr Carson is such a conservative snob. It's hilarious really.

Magi84 · 30/07/2025 21:14

Oh dear poor Edith Mr Richester's book has turned up making her feel sad

Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:14

Mrs Hughes has found one of Mr Rochester's old books. She can cherish that at night now....and improve her knowledge of German grammar at the same time!!

Violet trying to put a word in with Dr C to get him to maybe interfer a little in the Lord Merton situation

Ilovelblue · 30/07/2025 21:18

Old Lady G is a bit of a stirrer, telling Dr Clarkson about Lord Merton and Isabel.

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:18

Violet is trying to get the doctor jealous of Lord Merton's attentions. She would prefer Isabel to be a lowly doctor's wife.

eejittwo · 30/07/2025 21:18

Violet is just wonderful.

Magi84 · 30/07/2025 21:19

Rhubarb01 · 30/07/2025 21:19

Oh Thomas you great bully.Leave her alone.

Yes, it sounds clever doesn't it...she probably read the title of an agricultural paper in the Estate office.

Ilovelblue · 30/07/2025 21:21

Cora has sussed her mother in law would not be happy to see Isabel become Lady Merton!
