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.

Didn't get to see the Downton film today due to a change of plan, but hopefully I will manage it at some point in the next few days.

However, I did spot, whilst flicking through the Radio Times, that BBC3 are re-running Our Girl, two episodes per night, which started on Tuesday - some fans we are! It's 4 and 5 of series 1 tonight. At least they don't get the agonising week long wait to discover CJ's fate.. oh the memories, and the happy memories of those brilliant threads.

Standing by

Evening all - ready for dinner service, whenever Mr Carson says it's time.

Pressed play...

I'm here, just in time!

Pressed play

What will tonight bring?

On parade.

The editor...Edith's editor...is on their way...watch out!

Mary is her usual understanding self....but on to more important things...off with the hunt.

Lord G still in a strop.

Mary is never nice to Edith.

It sounds as if Lord Gillingham and Mr Blake are likely to come to stay at Downton. Is Mary going to play one off against the other?

It's Denker the new ladies maid.

I think something weird has happened I seem to be on wrong episode. Which one are we on?

Episode 6

Oh got it.silly me

Whoopsie!! look what Mr Bates found!!

Denker and Spratt make a right pair...they are both more snobby than their employer.

Oh dear Bates has found the stuff.

Mr Bates has found something unmentionable whilst searching for Anna's button box!

Prince Kuragin's digs look a bit down at heel.

Very downmarket accommodation for Prince Whatsit!

Prince K declares his undying love for Violet.

Oh Prince K is still enamoured of Violet. How romantic

Oh, no the Sergeant is coming back again...yawn!!
