The Our Girl Addicts Thread 76 Stay focused. we're now watching Downton Abbey

[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.

Just thinking how fortunate Edith is with the very loose 1920's clothing to hide her growing bump. She mentioned 4 months to Rosamund. Surely, she's not already 5 months pregnant?

Daisy is so jealous and spiteful.

Violet has summoned Edith and Rosamund to tea and wants to know the truth. She has guessed something is up.

Violet smells a rat!

That must be the third time someone has used a variation of the line "If I told you the truth you'd despise me."

Oh, blimey. Poor silly Rose. This will not end well. She really needs to grow up.

Mrs P having to sort out zalfred's live life by giving someone a day off

Violet is asking Isabel to hep her with Lord Merton. Better than nothing eh

Backhanded compliments indeed.

Here she is the cheeky teacher.

Oh what has Bates got in mind

Not sure what I think of that teacher. She's certainly quite forward!

So, Lord Merton is a widower.

Oh I was passing through Skipton on Sunday!

Has Miss Bunting waylaid Tom by any chance

Tom puts his past skills to good use. If all else fails at Downton he can invent the RAC breakdown service.

Violet talks things over with Edith. She doesn't think the pigman idea is a good one.

Oh Violetvwants to speak to Edith

Ah, Violet is kind and ally to Edith...although she means to protect the Crawley name and reputation too.

Isabel and Lord Merton have much in common it seems.

Meanwhile, back in that there London, Lady Mary goes seeking the bandleader who is practising another song to ruin.

Looks like Violet might have set Isabel up with Lord M. Not intentionally I shouldn't think

Ooops I had to shoo one of my neighbours away. What a time to call!

Mary confronts Mr Band Leader.

Mary visiting The singer. Oh he was expecting a visit
