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.

Pooh Sticks!

Pooh sticks! I love doing that when I am out walking my friend's dogs.

Some of the posters on the Downton Abbey film thread have said that they cast the same children in the film as appeared in the series, hence the age discrepancies. To be honest, little Sybbie does look like it's the same girl as in the film all grown up.

Charles in hatching a plan. Hilarious...going to the "Kinema!" I suppose they must have pronounced it like that in those days.

Cora has a plan to bring Edith and Marigold back to Downton. Rosamund has her doubts.

This is all very cloak and dagger. Anna has seen what is going on, I think.

Drama in the Dower House. Spratt is such a drama queen.

Oh, boo! ITVx has gone on the blink with Robert and Rose halfway up the stairs.

A posh outfit for the cinema!

Snogging at the "Kinema" - Tony gets the message...AT LAST!!!

Yes that "Rags" in Downton language Grin

Mr Mason is so sweet to Daisy. It is nice that she has a father now.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:38

Poor Robert is cut up about poor Isis. Everyone forgets about Edith's problem.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:39

Hark at Rose describing Mrs Drew as "feeble", given all her experience of bringing up children.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:40

Anna spills the beans about what she saw at the station.

Ilovelblue · 01/10/2025 21:41

Anna has put two and two together about Edith and Marigold - or at least she is starting to put two and two together.

Larry uses his diplomatic skills to win over Isabel.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:43

Tom slips in the "B" word.

Ilovelblue · 01/10/2025 21:43

Oh dear, Lord Merton's son is airing his views about his soon to be stepmother. Tom and Robert jump to her defence.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:44

Atticus proposes to Rose. Ah, sweet!

eejittwo · 01/10/2025 21:45

So that is what Charles was up to!

Ilovelblue · 01/10/2025 21:45

Maybe Lord Merton's son's outburst has made Atticus think. He proposes to Rose.

Rhubarb01 · 01/10/2025 21:47

Oh, dear. Trouble between Isabel and Lord Merton. All is not rosy. Sad scenes in the bedroom with poor Isis.

Ilovelblue · 01/10/2025 21:47

Poor Isis.
