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.

Always feel she’s trying to convince herself about him.

Nice to see Captain Osman putting her in her place.

CJ loves to sneak into medics tents.

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 21:55

Tension ramping up.

Georgie has he duty of care and has to go in the ambulance. Why does she change her outfit???

eejittwo · 04/03/2026 22:00

Typical cat.

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 22:01

Roadblock...it's all about to go wrong.

Isn't it handy she has a pair of scrubs to hand?

They mustn't know she is a soldier

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 22:02

The scrubs are a good plot device. Georgie gets kidnapped and slung in the back of the truck like a bag of spuds!

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 22:03

Lovely Mansfield is injured and Georgie is kidnapped.

Tense music and it's not looking good for Georgie.

Looking forward to one of our favourite episodes.

eejittwo · 04/03/2026 22:05

11 minutes in, as I recall.

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 22:05

Yes Rhu, there are some of the best scenes in this next episode. "Here come the boys" is one of my favourites.

I haven't watched that for a long time and did enjoy it.

ilove I think we're going to need a new thread next week.

Yes Rhu I'll sort one out. We fly through these threads, don't we?

Yes episode 2 was the best. See you next week. All technical stuff permitting🤣

Rhubarb01 · 04/03/2026 22:07

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 22:06

We certainly do when we've got plenty of Elvis action to talk about. In fairness, there's a lot in that first episode.

And we do know these episodes off by heart too.

Have a good week everyone. Expecting you all back from leave and on parade next Wednesday. Smile

Ilovelblue · 04/03/2026 22:15

I keep meaning to mention Rhu but as you are a Call the Midwife fan, have you noticed that the owner of the Lady Emily clinic where Trixie has said she will go to work is the same actor as played the Australian sergeant in Soldier Soldier?

I forgot to mention I saw Georgie’s Dad in Silent Witness this week. Playing a police inspector who is a bit of a dinosaur. Part just right for him I thought.

I hadn't realised, but now you say it, I can see that it is. I saw speculation on the CTM thread that perhaps Trixie will have an affair with him Grin especially since Sir Matthew is now a doctor in Casualty.
