[Ilovelblue]

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.

Rhu I went to see the Downton film last night. The beautiful costumes were amazing! You might need to take a few tissues in for the end. It was sad but happy if you know what I mean.

Ah, thanks ilove. I'm looking forward to it tomorrow. I did inadvertently come across a little spoiler when I was skimming the internet for a quick star rating verdict of the film, but the little snippet I saw didn't surprise me. I will, however, make sure I have some tissues with me...it doesn't take much these days!
