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.

Crikey...disapproval from the chemist's wife. What a cheek!

Ilovelblue · 20/08/2025 21:17

How embarrassing dealing with the assistant in the chemist! It didn't sound as if she approved of what she was sellling.

Poor An a now she is in the shop having to make that purchase without actually using words. Awkward questions to answer. Unbelievable.

Mrs Patmore getting Miss Buntin involved with helping Daisy.

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:19

Lord Merton's little pad.

The wireless is a fad. Heaven help us when he hears about TV if ever

Ilovelblue · 20/08/2025 21:19

Mr Molesley questions Miss Baxter's past.

Handbags at dawn, as ever.

Miss Baxter clearly wants to make no excuses for herself.

Meanwhile, Violet and Isabel snipe over tea.

Magi84 · 20/08/2025 21:21

Poor Miss Baxter being completely honest. Mr Molesley cannot quite grasp the situation
She is being thoroughly honest with him

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:22

Anna is covering for Mary, but Bates is suspicious.

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:24

Here's Charles Bake's friend, the arty bloke.

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:24

Charles must know that Tony's in luck...not sure he realises just how lucky.

Magi84 · 20/08/2025 21:25

Oh Thomas he never runs of snide remarks about all and sundry

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:25

Gosh, Rosa Luxembourg is coming to tea again....Lord G not so sure about her sharing Rosa's fate!

Magi84 · 20/08/2025 21:26

Mary has come put of some sort of mist. Goes away on a dubious weekend to make sure the mist is over obviously

eejittwo · 20/08/2025 21:26

I.m not convinced Lord G wouldn’t like to shoot Miss Bunting and throw her in the canal.

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:27

Why do all dramas that feature night scenes in the country think it obligatory to have the sound of foxes barking? You really don't hear them everywhere all the time.

Magi84 · 20/08/2025 21:28

Miss Bunting is a real like Bolshie. Down with the aristocracy..

Rhubarb01 · 20/08/2025 21:29

Rose is mentioning the wireless again...if it's good enough for the King, then perhaps Downton must keep up with the times.

Ilovelblue · 20/08/2025 21:29

Mr Molesley and Miss Baxter have a heart to heart.

I think Carson is an even bigger stick in the mud than Lord G.

Mr Molesley feels that he knows Miss Baxter well enough to believe she's not a bad person.

Magi84 · 20/08/2025 21:31

Hiring a wireless only for a day mustn't risk corruption.
