The Our Girl Addicts Thread 78 Stay focused, we are now watching Downton Abbey

[Ilovelblue]

We are about to watch the final episode in the final series of Downton. Our little gang has previoulsy watched all the series of Our Girl, Soldier Soldier, The Musketeers and Spooks. We dipped a toe into Hustle then moved onto Downton which has kept us occupied in the comings and goings of the Crawley family.

Smurf does the rubbish eye blinking here 😂

Here comes the MERT.

Oh, dear Molly pretends she can't hear anything. Mind you, that chopper is loud.

CJ going berserk shputing NO WAY

Here's the triumphant winch music...think Elvis and Georgie series 2.

Same music as for Georgie!

Gosh, he's cross but boy is he impressed!

Now he is very impressed.

CJ is impressed.

At this point, I couldn't wait for the next episode!!

Of course, Smurf may not be wrong about Bashira. Given what we later find out about her family, as young as she is, she could be feeding info back.

Meanwhile....Smurf is going to come back to her and be there for her.

Smurf really goes overboard with his I'll come back to you. Bit of an idiot

Hero worship now from Smurf.

And Molly is insufficiently dismissible.

Legs akimbo!!! He decides to give her a dressing down. She lies and he knows it.

The connection is made and she's proved herself.

Quite an arrogant stance CJ has there.

CJ makes a speech and says well done. Getting closer it seems

Molly is now accepted as one of the lads.

Dismissive

I enjoyed that. It's been quite a while since I watched that, so it was good to revisit. I remember watching it all over again as soon as it went on iplayer, so it definitely got it's hooks into me and many more of us.

Yes loved seeing that again. So many memories of being completely hooked not having expected to be. Great stuff. Still the best series.

I don't believe I had ever been so invested in a drama series as I have with OG. Most of the time I watch something with my laptop on my knee at the same time and OG is one of the very few programmes which has had me totally hooked.

Same time next week everyone? Looking forward to "Don't go breaking my heart...I couldn't if I tried..."🎵🎵

Since I never saw it when it was first broadcast, my heart belongs to Elvis …

Whenever I hear that song, it always makes me think of CJ and Molly. It's the same with the one at the beginning of OG2 (whose name I have totally forgotten) which was going to be Elvis' and Georgie's wedding song. They both make me smile a little.

Evening, ready for episode 2!
