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.

The wistful look on Edith's face....

Spratt is going to spill the beans about Mary.

Spratt couldn't keep it to himself...he positively loves gossiping.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:11

Oh Spratt is bungling idiot. Trying to confuse Violet won't get him anywhere. Now he has spilled the beans

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:12

Got to love Violet's ability to get on top of the situation and pull the wool over Spratt's eyes. What a pro!

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:12

Violet covers for Mary quite well.

Good old Violet go in all guns firing. Sorts him out but how will she handle Mary

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:13

Poor Anna, her woes are never at an end.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:14

I sometimes wonder who the other silent servants at the table are.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:15

"That's enough, Dasiy...come and watch the spotted Dick!" Grin

Ones who didn't get paid as much as the others!

Mary not in a hurry to walk down the aisle. Now she is fobbing off her contraceptive "device" to Anna to keep. Charming!

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:17

Mary really expects a lot from Anna

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:18

Mary really has a cheek expecting Anna to hide the contraceptive.

Blimey, here's the policeman again. This is such a lot of made up back story to fabricate yet more drama.

It's beginning to irritate me if I'm honest!

Spratt...dropping hints that he knows yet again. Just trying to throw Mary off. Looks like she has confessed all to Violet. Almost a slip of the tongue about Edith there...

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:24

Oh, Mary...that's not very complimentary about poor, dear, deceased Matthew.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:25

Meanwhile, Miss Baxter confesses all and admits she was in the thrall of a nasty piece of work.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:27

That policeman reminds me of Roy Hudd.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:27

This business with Bates is becoming tedious.

I agree.

The art man is right about chattering magpies, we have lots here and they are a very noisy bunch.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:28

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:27

That policeman reminds me of Roy Hudd.

That's who I was thinking of but couldn't remember his name.

Lady Edith has gone AWOL with our Marigold.
