The Our Girl Addicts Thread 80

We've been going since 2014 and have watched numerous other series as well as Our Girl. We're currently on the second series of Last Tango in Halifax and are enjoying it immensely!

This is time for Celia to be a mum and paint on a smile, whether she feels it or not, and stand there and do what is required.

Totally agree there.

I've never really liked Celia's character and she pretends to be broad minded when really she is exactly the opposite!

As does Caroline.

My comment was meant to quote my own comment.

Rhubarb01 · 16/07/2026 21:58

I think that is a different William. I wasn't sure who he was to start with then remembered reading that the original only did the first couple of series.

Ilovelblue · 16/07/2026 21:58

Straight speaking to her Mum from Caroline but it doesn't look as if it's made any difference.

No sign of Celia. What a self-centred woman she is.

That was unkind of Caroline to make such a remark to Alan.

Yes, it was but in a way Alan's past started the unhappy episode.

Gosh what a tangled family. So much going on. Interesting times.

Same time next Wednesday?

Ilovelblue · 16/07/2026 22:03

I have a favour to ask in reply to eejit's unavailability.

I'm ok to do that Friday night, no problem.

I am away the following week and I think we might be coming to the end of the series so I wondered if we could skip that week till I'm back? It would mean being back on here on 12 August.

Wednesday as usual.

All ok by me.

So, the proposal is Wednesday 23rd as usual, Friday 31st and then next one is Wednesday 12th.

Rhubarb01 · 16/07/2026 22:08

Wednesday 22nd, I meant

eejittwo · 16/07/2026 22:15

Okay with skipping the first week in August.

Ilovelblue · 16/07/2026 22:19

Especially with Magi being out of action, a watchalong with just two isn't as much fun really,

Hi all. Watched the episode and read your comments. Really Celia is being thoroughly obnoxious. No need for such drama from her. No support for her daughter plus a rather unrealistic view on Alan’s latest bit of news. I noted your suggested dates for the future and hope to join you mid/ate August. I have typed this left handed and won’t tell you how long it has taken me. 😱🤣🤣

Eejit by name and eejit by nature. I got my weeks mixed up. It's this week, not next, that I'm only available on Friday or Saturday. I know we have arranged Wednesday for this week and Friday for next week, so I am happy to stick with the arrangement if necessary, but if you want to / can swap the weeks around so there's at least three on the watch along ...

Grovel, grovel, grovel ...

Rhubarb01 · 21/07/2026 18:54

I can do Friday this week and probably Wednesday next week.

Over to you ilove

Rhubarb01 · 22/07/2026 18:16

Hi eejit. Ilove has messaged that she can do Friday this week and Wednesday next week so all good. Will 'see' you here at 9pm on Friday.

Yay! See you on Friday.

Rhubarb01 · 24/07/2026 20:58

Evening, all ready for the next episode.

Rhubarb01 · 24/07/2026 21:00

Pressed play...doing the recap

Ilovelblue · 24/07/2026 21:01

Just in from being in the greenhouse. The tomatoes will be a huge crop this year!

Harvesting courgettes at last.

So, Celia stayed at home with Lawrence.
