*The Archers thread

[belboid]

I'm going to have to listen to this again as it is comedy gold. And Freda vocalises! It's not speech exactly but she is no longer a silent character.
What a deeply sexist, classist and ageist soap this is.

I thought for a moment that Sabrina was going to speak.

*snort*

Is Rob a gonna? Or will it be (the virtually unmentioned) Pip?

That would be serious waste of villain potential.

 

[wiskey]

So who's on the potential death list:

Pip
Helen & Henry
Ruth & Ben
Josh (I think he's on a sleepover somewhere)
Rob and his 3 more men/women in a boat
Eddie
Linda and Clarrie
Robet Snell?
Joe Grundy?

Perhaps they'll be a cull. Belboid - anyone who doesn't think SO'C is introducing an unwelcome Eau d'Emmerdale into the Archers is a fool

Scruff!

I was distracted by marauding children, was Freda rescued or washed away in her car?

Alan rescued her. I think. It's always difficult to tell when they do these dramatic scenes in the Archers. Like when Otto rampaged:
Oh no!
Aargh!
Look out!
No, Henry!
Aaaaaaaaaaaargh!
Urgggggggh!
Help!

etc

Do you really want to know or would that spoil your experience of the omnibus?

Spoiler: Spoiler

Is it a spoiler if I suggest she is no longer a silent part?

 

[wiskey]

I am tickled by the idea that Shula lied to the police and the floods are Gods retribution .

I heard the end, it just sounded like Alan and Jill were saying 'oh well, nothign we can do now, better save the church', but I wasn't sure if it was a 'she's beyond saving' or 'she's safe' type of chat.

your spoiler doesn't help.

I cba to listen again

 

[two sheds]

I don't think it would help listening again - the recording's cut off before the end.

 

[bluescreen]

I'm thinking of Tewkesbury tbh, as well as the destruction of long-established traditions such as Freda not speaking. If Freda even mumbles then it is surely doom.

I always listen again as I listen in the morning during my dog walk. I've noticed a couple of early cut offs lately...

 

[two sheds]

Yep and they start with several minutes of announcements before the programme rather than just the minute and a bit you have to fast forward past.

I normally listen in the morning but you bastards have got me listening the same night now.

Heh I like Fallon with her blue hair

Of course there is always the thought that building a major road in an area prone to severe flooding is a silly idea and they choose another route.

 

[belboid]

'Where are Kathy and Jamie?' - the question we've all been asking

Pip is reprieved tho

 

[belboid]

 

[wiskey]

Still no sign of scruff

 

[TikkiB]

It's all being far too Emmerdale for my liking

 

[wiskey]

I don't even know what day it is in Ambridge anymore

It's just all so wrong!

 

[FiFi]

On the "who's where" I can't see where Helen and Henry are. Are they OK?

 

[madamv]

God I hope Rob isn't going to be martyred

Helen and Henry went home

 

[belboid]

Helen and Henry went home

You sure about that? Henry went out, we'll probly see them tomorrow
