*The Archers thread

[weltweit]

Oh well done weltweit, perhaps if you've mastered the spoilercode you could hide some of that?

Do people really read this thread before they have listened ?

 

[bluescreen]

They might. I don't, but others use the spoilercode. (how does that work?)

 

[bluescreen]

As if anything could spoil The Archers.

 

[weltweit]

They might. I don't, but others use the spoilercode. (how does that work?)

I don't know how it works.

Perhaps

Spoiler

did this work?

 

[weltweit]

Yep, just enter the word spoiler in opening and closing brackets.

 

[bluescreen]

Thanks, weltweit! And not just for the tip on spoilerism but for your penetrating psychological insight!

 

[bluescreen]

You could put anything between those brackets - such as "totally predictable fanbait"

 

[two sheds]

or "not really a very good spoiler yet"

I listen to the Archers at random times depending on how busy I am. Sometimes I am days behind.

I try not to look at this thread if I'm behind, but sometimes I forget.

So yes please, to spoiler code.

 

[wiskey]

Just caught up... Fortunately didn't read the thread

Spoiler: Thoughts

So Rob is going to take Jack but not Henry... Which means presumably that at some point his parental responsibility was retracted??

I'd much rather he'd taken Henry, Jack is far less annoying!

Henry is going to grow up seriously fucked up by the adults in his life

 

[weltweit]

Well that wasn't quite what I expected

 

[bluescreen]

Well that wasn't quite what I expected

Absurd, I thought.

 

[weltweit]

Absurd, I thought.

I didn't think absurd, but I wasn't expecting it

Spoiler

what I really think is going in here in future

I fear my Archers tolerance threshold is being reached again, as it does periodically.

Pat and Kirsty missed the opportunity to kill him, and put him through a shredder to feed to Tom's pigs.

 

[wiskey]

That was fucking daft.

I don't even know where to start.

 

[mango5]

Rain stopped play

 

[Libertad]

Once they'd got Jack back why didn't they call the police?

 

[two sheds]

Helen agreed to it eventually.

Helen agreed to it eventually.

Aah, missed that.

 

[trashpony]

I wish they'd tried to call the police and couldn't get through or something. And that they'd drowned Henry (or at least replaced him with a child that sounds like he could feasibly be 6, rather than 3.

We listened to the Omnibus in the car today but they were still in max tree/car/baby kidnap drama when we arrived home. The foal (nearly 10) made me sit in the car until it had finished. Hooked already

I feel we ought to be warning Minneapolis (where even is that??)

 

[ViolentPanda]

I feel we ought to be warning Minneapolis (where even is that??)

A city in the state of Minnesota, which is located in the northern Mid-west of the US. Famous for winter ice-fishing, and Prince Rogers Nelson - oh, and the Lake Wobegon stories by Garrison Keillor.

 

[wiskey]

Oh I love Garrison Keilor

 

[davesgcr]

What abut the Brighton side line story with the Pipp's £5K probably gone to support Tobeee's "ex" smack habit ? .

How about it turns out that this ends up as a domestic Ambridge issue..? , as oppopsed to drizzle cake and Fag-Ash ....

How are the Grundies these days -? looking for coins in the street perhaps to pay their rent. Thought the cold weather might have seen Joe off ..

 

[wiskey]

I thought the way he solemnly told Pip that she'd gone on to 'hard drugs' was cringeworthy, but then I doubt pip has ever seen so much as a kingsize rizla

Unless she was with Freddie !

Blown all my money -yes - that is fine ,. you can stay on ..!!!

 

[bluescreen]

If he's gone to Minneapolis he will have gone on a visitor's visa, and he won't be able to get a work visa while he's out there. So he will be back.

I lived there for 3 years when I was a kid. Very humid in the summer, lots of snow in the winter. There's a lot of water (and a lot of mosquitos).

It's where Fargo is set - sure Rob will fit right in
