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.

Are we moving on to Series 2, since you mention the boys and town?

It would be fine by me Grin

Presentation time on parade.

Molly is advised that she will be receiving a Military Cross for saving Smurf.

Ilovelblue · 25/02/2026 21:25

Molly is awarded the Military Cross. Belinda, Dave and Nan look shocked but so proud.

Molly's Dad is so proud. She finds it hard to cope with the praise.

Magi84 · 25/02/2026 21:27

Molly’s Nan is surprised they have Universities in Afghanistan

Rhubarb01 · 25/02/2026 21:28

There's a lot squeezed into this episode. I think we always thought it had been quite heavily edited.

Nice to see Mum and Dad getting on better now.

Ilovelblue · 25/02/2026 21:28

Dave in his pants again. Not a pretty sight.

Has he had the self-inflicted injury yet?

Yes, very rushed. A sixth episode to finish it properly would have been our choice, wouldn't it?

Yes, that was during the pilot episode - he was much nastier in that.

Rhubarb01 · 25/02/2026 21:30

Molly's outlook on life has really changed.

Ilovelblue · 25/02/2026 21:32

No idea what time it is in Kabul but Molly rings Qaseem to find out about Bashira.

Molly is really finding it difficult to cope with being back home and realising the truth.

Rhubarb01 · 25/02/2026 21:34

Molly and CJ meet in civvies and she looks so good...and so does he.

Rhubarb01 · 25/02/2026 21:35

They have great chemistry in this scene...so flirty...but both on the verge of laughing all the time.

Magi84 · 25/02/2026 21:35

Moly having a hard time sleeping. Now tackling thekitchen. Time for a heart to heart with mum who really hasn’t a clue poor woman

The "choosing for you" bit is slightly patronising, but she holds her own.

Disaster!

Sweet - the kiss of the hand.

eejittwo · 25/02/2026 21:37

Do they ever actually eat in the restaurant?

Rhubarb01 · 25/02/2026 21:38

He loves her...yes be brilliant Molly.

Ilovelblue · 25/02/2026 21:38

Oh damn! I've missed the Bailbrook House bit and the very table I have sat at!
