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.

Oh looks like Cora has a fan

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:30

Mrs Drew is really not enjoying Edith's constant attentions. This is going well...not!

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:30

Mrs Drew obviously has doubts about Edith. She thought Edith had absconded with Marigold.

Cora...wise up, woman!

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:31

Mrs Drew is a bit fed up with Edith.

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:32

Cora is lapping up the attention.

Just how good do you think the train service to London was in 1924?

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:33

Cora was a buccaneer...Edith Wharton style.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:34

Just remembered that these two were in The Scarlet Pimpernel some years before and she played his wife.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:34

Heavens Cora stop acting like a young ingenu

Much better than it is now by the sounds of it!

Robert needs to shut up. He should remember his own past dalliance.

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:35

Lord G is very jealous that Cora has been out with another man!

Mary's weekend away wasn't quite the decider she imagined it would be. Perhaps he's not that clever as Charles Blake said?

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:37

Tom is rather perceptive. It's nice that he and Mary can be fairly honest with each other.

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:38

Just love Violet and Isabel.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:39

Oh Mary has now gone off Tony after all. Tom is being supportive

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:39

Here's Tony...again!!

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:40

ahhh...nice of Tony to say that to Isabel. He realises it can't be easy.

Magi84 · 27/08/2025 21:41

Russian refugees. Aristocratic ones of course

Rhubarb01 · 27/08/2025 21:41

Cora has allowed Miss Baxter to stay. Thank goodness.

Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:41

Very gentlemanly of Tony Gillingham to say nice things to Isabel, given the fact he is trying to marry her daughter in law.

OP posts:
Ilovelblue · 27/08/2025 21:42

Robert is still holding a grudge about Cora's visit with the fancy art man in London.

Oh dear, Mr Drew is banning Edith from the farm because she is causing a problem. Poor Edith.
