*The Archers thread

[wiskey]

I once ventured into the archers forums to try and settle an argument and witnessed one of the most vicious threads I have ever seen - people being horrible to each other about whether a fictional character was riding a fictional horse incorrectly!

 

[Mrs Magpie]

The start of the today's omnibus had a scene with Brian, Will and Ruauiri. Or however you spell the little twerp's name. And Rory's (there, spelled it properly) words were completely missing.

Am I going mad or had someone editied him out? Is this more fallout from the Jimmy Saville affair?

ETA: Just looked at the Archers' web site and the only biog photo that's missing is Rory's... Something's going on I tell you.

We noticed this. They forgot to drop in the child actor recording (not done in Archers studio with the adult actors).

 

[Mrs Magpie]

(((Emmur)))

I am enjoying the Matt / James catastrophe.

 

[a_chap]

James is too much of a caricature for me to be anything other than irritated whenever I hear him.

 

[vauxhallmum]

I heard that too! Apparently the kids are never in the studio with the rest of the cast, they are added in later. Or should be

 

[mrs quoad]

I just made a little sick.

OFGS George is the most pathetic 7 year old ever. He talks like a 3 year old and the level of 'terror' experienced by one head gasket blowing was ridiculous.

I fucking hate the Grundy Jnr lot

 

[vauxhallmum]

Nuff Emmur now Why the lovely Ed is still with her I do not understand

 

[mrs quoad]

Yuck.

 

[mrs quoad]

I don't tune into the Archers to hear the sound effect of young people's saliva glands meeting.

I was thinking the same thing. tho thank god they have finally got it together....

Bit out of character for Fallon to be interested in someone who's actually interested in her.

What happened with her and Ed in the end? Was it her who wasn't interested in him?

Who's going to fulfil the 'unrequited' plot roles now?

I never quite followed what went on with them- I was travelling for a bit.

I reckon James and Leoni are due some sort of bust up

 

[mrs quoad]

I don't listen to the archers to hear happy young people talking about great sex, ffs.

Twice now, goddammit.

 

[mrs quoad]

Btw, is it Joyce or Arthur who's died? The kettle was boiling whilst Lilian was aggrieved, and the subsequent conversation was unclear.

Arthur died, Joyce is going into sheltered housing. Will Lillian leave Matt?!?!

 

[mrs quoad]

Ooo, you woman of loose repute, you, Lilian!

 

[Manter]

Ugh, Lillian sex chuckle. Nearly spat out my tea

 

[mrs quoad]

I've transcribed it to Artichoke.

She says it sounds like radio porn.

 

[mrs quoad]

Sausages for dinner, Lilian?

Fnarr.

 

[mrs quoad]

Matt needs the heterosexual men's version of ^^^ this.

 

[Manter]

Dear lord. Archers sex. Wrong wrong wrong. That's two of them at it in a week!

 

[belboid]

I have just read the last six comments. I am very glad I missed tonight's episode

[barney_pig]

Now I will have wash my eyes in bleach

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Lower Loxley goes Downton......

 

[a_chap]

Lower Loxley goes Downton......

Not being a TV watcher, that one's lost on me.

 

[wiskey]

I was hoping they might both be drowned quietly off mic

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Neither am I but clearly you live in a bubble where no mention of Downton Abbey has penetrated.
