*The Archers thread

[wiskey]

i fear this will mean more of Pip and her whiny voice.

Oh

 

[wiskey]

He will sus out Rob for the wrong un he is. Takes one to spot one.

I think this might be true.

But Matt is our pet loveable rogue... And Rob is a cad.

Are Matt & Lillian no longer skint then? I forget.... Didn't he lose it all in Russia?

 

[susie12]

are you saying that we're all wrongs uns??!!

No!! Just that Rob has pulled the wool with Helen and Peggy and Tom. Matt is much nicer than Rob, ie not a psycho control freak, but I think he'll spot what he's up to.

Quite, Matt has his faults but his relationship with Lilian isn't an abusive one.

Anyone else reckon Rob is lying about having to do a Farm Sunday - I bet it was his idea.

 

[pseudonarcissus]

why the new road storyline? are they just recycling the by-pass script? new road building just doesn't seem very topical

 

[wiskey]

Does farm Sunday even exist outside ambridge?

And doesn't rob have to wait a while until he can marry hellin?

Well yes. I can't see morally uptight Peggy not pointing out the small issue of him being married to someone else. Nor being impressed by him finding Tom a job in Canada

 

[wayward bob]

it's taken them forever but i reckon they're finally setting up for a thing between lizzie and roy

 

[Manter]

Peggy thinks he's kind to have found Tom a job....

 

[Manter]

Oooh, I've missed that...

 

[susie12]

I can't see Lizzie going for Roy. He's married for a start and not, well, posh enough for her. They should never have killed off poor old Nigel.

 

[madamv]

I just wish Tony could express himself more clearly. He's starting to piss me off with his whinging tantrum 'tom's spoiled EVERYTHING' voice....

 

[trashpony]

Yes I agree - it's a bit odd.

I'm still not convinced that Peggy's relief that Tom has a job would outweigh her distress at him being 5000 miles away

 

[susie12]

Every time Tony tries to whine something Pat shuts him up.

 

[two sheds]

A couple of lines like the response to Jazzer’s “Oh no I’ll be stuck with the vegetables all day” makes me wonder whether Lillian’s now got her own scriptwriter.

yes it does - http://www.farmsunday.org/ofs12b/about/history.eb

 

[wiskey]

Yes someone on my Fb has been posting about it because she's taking her (9) children somewhere on Sunday.

 

[TikkiB]

And there was a piece about it on R4 this afternoon.



See, The Archers IS educational.

That's why The Archers was created in the first place....

I know!

 

[wiskey]

Jesus Peggy is just so awful! She sucks the life out of everything

 

[trashpony]

Jesus Peggy is just so awful! She sucks the life out of everything

And she's passed it on to Tony and Helen. The world's lemon suckers

 

[wiskey]

are we to assume Tom has got the job then? or has he just vanished into Canada?

 

[weltweit]

Probably a drama or two to come out about that sometime soon

 

[Manter]

I reckon he's going to turn up again and be pissed off at Tony's decisions.

 

[TikkiB]

are we to assume Tom has got the job then? or has he just vanished into Canada?

I think he's just joined the list of Overseas Offspring, who we never hear again unless they are wheeled for some

are we to assume Tom has got the job then? or has he just vanished into Canada?

I think he's joined the list of offstage offspring in : Debbie, Kate and Alice, soon to be joined by Dan.

I think the scriptwriters got cold feet about letting Alice and Chris go, Jennifer would only have had one child left in the country otherwise.

I've just remembered that both Kenton and Adam were on that list for years, so he may be allowed back when he is older and wiser.

And less obsessed with pigs and sausages.

 

[weltweit]

Tonights is reminding me of our local country show, used to really enjoy that, until I was older and my employer wouldn't let me take time off for it.

 

[Manter]

I'm sure I should feel sorry for Peggy, but she really annoys me

I'm heartless…..

 

[wiskey]

me too.

and proud
