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.

Here's CJ doing the education bit for the lads and for us.

Why did Marie have such a downer on Elvis - she really seemed to have an issue before and she's so pro Jamie.

I wondered if it was jealousy, and spiteful in pushing Dr Dull.

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 21:23

Is it jealousy - a sort of reverse jealousy do you think?

Yes, I think maybe it was.

I really think that Georgie would have spoken to Elvis again once the dust settled over the non-wedding. Most people would want to have it out with the other person and get a proper explanation.

Ditto between the end of series 2 and the start of series 3.

That's what sensible folk would do - but not our Georgie!

Weapons-grade scrotum🤣

A variety of opinions about their presence. Not everyone is welcoming.

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:29

They arrive in the refugee camp.

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 21:29

It seems quite a threatening atmosphere.

Georgie doesn’t like not being welcomed.

Magi84 · 04/03/2026 21:30

That seemed a long ride in the lorry. Action at last

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:30

Explosions and everyone springs into action.

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:31

A conflict of opinions. Georgie is taking the medic approach but Kiki knows what happens here.

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 21:31

No sooner do they arrive when drama starts. An explosion.

Clashes with Kiki. Georgie has to step back a bit much to her chagrin

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:33

I don't think we ever find out what sort of medical training Kiki has, but she must have had some.

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:34

Ging gang goolie, goolie, goolie wotcha....

"Sugartits" an expression with history.

eejittwo · 04/03/2026 21:34

Trouble follows Georgie like seagulls follow a trawler, as Eric Cantona almost said.

Magi84 · 04/03/2026 21:34

Must admit that was a cracking put down. Sorted Monk put beautifully

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:34

Great wi-fi connection in that camp Grin

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:35

Brains got a bit of a crush, do we think?

Magi84 · 04/03/2026 21:35

Brains has a headache . Or so he says

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 21:35

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:34

It's a bit like the mobile phone in Nepal with its never ending battery!

CJ digging himself out of a hole. He obviously knows the whole story but doesn't spill the beans.

eejittwo · 04/03/2026 21:36

He’s not Voldemort.
