*The Archers thread

[Shirl]

Why has Jolene had a personality transplant? She has never been like she was tonight. Could she be pregnant or have the scriptwriters just decided to ignore her personality to date?

 

[Manter]

It was a bit feisty....

 

[wiskey]

Did I hear that kenton caused the flood?

 

[Manter]

Did I hear that kenton caused the flood?

Yes, but I didn't really understand how*. He left a door open or something

* he hasn't become a minor rain deity

 

[TikkiB]

That whole Jolenebecomesacompletelydifferentpersonthing was worryingly like what happened in Eastenders, when they jam a dramatic storyline into a previously innocuous character. I thought the whole Valentine competition between her and Kenton was quite out of character as well. She definitely wasn't entering into it in her usual jolly fashion

 

[susie12]

Maybe she's finally realised she's married a complete berk.

 

[RubyToogood]

Midlife crisis I think. Probably a reaction to being married.

 

[wiskey]

I like kenton.

He's a complete drip but he's reasonably inoffensive.

 

[Manter]

I like Kenton too.

And I used to like Tony before his current eyore-incarnation

 

[weltweit]

And dull character of the week goes to Tom ... almost whingeing Tom these days ... honestly who cares ?

 

[wiskey]

Whoever thought it would be 'edgy' for them to broach pole dancing was an idiot.

Put him under a tractor.

 

[wiskey]

Isn't that what happened to his brother?

 

[Greebo]

Isn't that what happened to his brother?

Yes. OTOH if you think it shouldn't happen a second time, Tom could drown in a vat of Hellqueen's mankwold or whatever-it-is cheese.

 

[wiskey]

(((kirsty)))

So, are Adam and Ian going to save Hellin before Rob flips and murders her?

 

[susie12]

I think she's beyond help. I can't work out this storyline at all, what was going on when he rang Jess and said something like don't worry, there's no rush?

 

[wiskey]

I don't know but I presume they aren't actually as separated as she thinks

 

[Lazy Llama]

Maybe he's going to kidnap/abduct Henry?

 

[Manter]

Maybe he's going to kidnap/abduct Henry?

More likely to murder him, surely?

 

[wiskey]

Maybe he's going to kidnap/abduct Henry?

We can hope...

... I wonder if we started a social media campaign whether he could be persuaded to take George too?

 

[susie12]

Maybe whoever has taken Ruari could step in

 

[wiskey]

Maybe whoever has taken Ruari could step in

Possibly the only upside to boarding school

 

[FiFi]

I'm going to keep checking in with this thread to find out when the Hellin/Rob storyline is finished so I can start listening again.
I don't think I can take 6 months of listening to her become embroiled in a controlling/abusive relationship
(no matter how much she usually drives me up the wall!)

 

[RedDragon]

I've just finish listening to Sunday's omnibus edition and I'm such a townie, when I heard "vicky is stuck in a ford" it conjured up all sorts of images. And why is Tom being all precious about the new cows getting in to the pig field - aren't they allowed to associate?

 

[wiskey]

He just resents the cows full stop.

Three references so far to Hellin 'glowing'... How long till the big announcement? Then Rob will be jealous and cross and kill her and Henry will go on hunger strike and die. Maybe

 

[a_chap]

So it's Wiggo to be the mysterious star in the rough and tumble then

Bradley Wiggins will appear on The Archers on Friday 21 March at 7pm.

I hope it's better than his TdF winning speech......

 

[wiskey]

The Archers were being all mysterious about it and then it was on the news.

I can't say I care really.

I doubt if he will actually "appear" on the Archers unless your DAB radio is a lot more advanced than mine. You will most likely hear him. I won't though because I have given up the Archers for Lent or maybe for ever.

Or Rob will pack Henry off to boarding school to make room for the new Messiah and then he will turn psycho and come back and murder them.

Actually it's a bit weird that he and Hellin haven't talked about Rob adopting Henry, given they're marrying
