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.

Do you think Donald Trump ought to watch OG too? 😁

He'd probably think it was a documentary and he won't like the lack of focus on the Yanks in it and say it's fake news.

I was thinking he might see some non-US NATO squaddies on the frontline ..,

Exactly...and probably say its AI and fake news, not a great fan of anything which contradicts his chosen narrative is that great draft dodger!

It's been appalling hasn't it? I'm just incredulous at what he might say next. Even Prince Harry has had his say and of course he was in Afghanistan.

I think his grip on world history is very, very questionable.

OG1:1 at 9 pm tonight?

That works for me!

👍

Are we starting with the pilot?

Evening, I assumed series 1 episode 1 as the pilot is longer.

Ready for trip down memory lane. Episode 1

Yes episode 1, the pilot is too long and not sure I still have it.

How long is it since we watched this series? I wonder if I will remember it all?

Pressed play.

Pressed play...Molly in action. The news is delivered, off to Afghan.

Mum looks worried, Dave is in his pants!

She looks thrilled to be part of the action.

Pressed play ...marching orders for Molly

Molly joins in for the photos and.....here he comes...Captain James addressing his cockwombles.

Gosh, first impressions. Always liked the intro and the music in this series. It made it feel a bit grittier.

The sideways look

I really didn't like CJ at first. It must have taken me nearly two episodes before I started to warm to him.

oooh, Molly's one night stand appears.

Smurf is off with his comments. He was the one I didn't take to initially

I'd even forgotten he was called Smurf!!
