The Our Girl Addicts Thread 77 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 five, episode eight.

Mr Molesley really being a help to Daisy

Lord Merton siding with Isabel, of course.

Isobel looking very purposeful walking along..Lord Merton seems to be forward thinking.

Miss Baxter is very forgiving towards Thomas

Rather handsome pigs.

The Pigs!!!

Yes, rather lustrous chestnut hair

Cora is on edge watching Mrs D with Marigold.

Mrs Drew reappears. It must be very difficult for her seeing Marigold again.

Yes, she was treated very shabbily by everyone.

Mr Bates is "tribal" 😂

Poor Anna she has obviously had a few disappointments thinking all was going to be well after everything else had been so scary

I am going to feel just a tiny bit sorry for the Editor, here. I bet it is annoying to have Edith telling him what to write all the time.

Is it that the editor just doesn't like a woman boss?

Thomas goes for an interview.

Looks like Thomas needs to be a jack of all trades.

Something tells me the interviewer doesn’t like Thomas, and Thomas doesn’t like the sound of the job.

Mary wonders! If she was being insensitive ..

I'd avoid that job if I were Thomas. The pompous butler or whatever he is would not get on with him.

Goodness only knows what Mary's "tiny operation" was...another of those slightly wishy-washy plotlines put in to cause misunderstanding between Mary and Matthew and invent drama where there was none.

Meanwhile, Anna is going to see a posh doctor "down" there in London.

Mary is going to pay for Anna to see who I presume is a gynaecologist.

Mary is indeed very kind when it comes to Anna and now going to fix for her to see London doctor

Here she goes again...Daisy the "Red"

Daisy on a mission once again. She really is a little radical these days

Mrs Hughes quite rightly has reservations about the reception being held in the "big". Understandably. Carson obviously thinks it is an honour!
