*The Archers thread

[wiskey]

god dammit I really thought we'd got rid of her then!!

I'm suggesting that Borsetshire has had a number of shootings down the years. An Ambridge adult male runs many risks. He may be shot by a Horobin, trampled by a rare breed or shagged to death by Lillian. It's rare anyone from Ambridge dies abed. My first experience of an Ambridger fatality was in late seventies when Aunty Laura died freezing and alone under a hedge. Violence and brutality is the hallmark of that part of the world, together with a scarcely masked sexual licentiousness. That's why I tune in.

Greg. The miserable old git was called Greg

Heh, yeah. Whatever, I always thought the cops asked one too few q's about that one. Pat was grinning into her yoghurt for months after that.

And this is why I think Nigel's death was directly inspired by Game of Thrones. Vanessa Whitburn read the book, was taken by George RR Martin's unsentimental dispatching of Ned Stark, and lo Nigel's fate was sealed.

I can't believe they shot Neil! Mrs SFM and I both shouted at the radio when it happened. So many more deserving targets.
Is it just me who feels deeply uncomfortable at the sound effects during the Lillian/Paul love scenes..

I'm still traumatised by the Jolene/Sid shower scene and these are equally icky

Do you remember when he dropped the soap? URRRRRRRR

We need an incest related beheading in the Archers for total Westeros synchronicity. Round the back of Grey Gables.

 

[TikkiB]

that's not a nice thought. thanks for that.

FFS despite the unlikelihood of a fatal car accident happening in the yard, I wish it had shut whiny Pip up for good.

Did they really need to make her *more* whiny?!

 

[wiskey]

That's what I said at the top of the page, I REALLY want bad things to happen to her, or her to go mute.

 

[TikkiB]

We've already had one whiny Pip drama a few years ago, why do we have to suffer another one, with even higher levels of whininess?

I'm waiting for Paul to reveal his full blown psycho persona to Lillian so they can take this affair to its long-delayed conclusion.

I think it's going to keep limping on for at least another month, even when she does realise what a nutter he is

Sadly I think you're right

 

[wiskey]

It's dragged on long enough already, derv and I had money on him killing her over christmas but we're still waiting

As Anita Dobson is playing Paul's ex wife, I reckon she will turn up in Ambridge at some point.

 

[tony.c]

I think Matt's going to hear about the date at the racetrack.

be a bit of a waste if all we get is her on the end of the line a couple of times.

Plus she's said she's in it more.

 

[wiskey]

So presumably the person from the place with the letters who comes to talk about TB in cows will mention that Salieri died of TB....

Then David kills Linda and feeds her to the remaining llamas?

Is there a job going at the Bull? Watch out Jolene

 

[Badgers]

I listen to the Archers a fair amount and often catch the omnibus. However I have no idea who is who or what is going on. Just me?

 

[wiskey]

What would you like to know? Do you really wanna know and be sucked in?

RIP Jack

 

[Shirl]

I wonder how soon his death with happen in the Archers

 

[susie12]

So is creepy liar Paul going to end up under some old floorboards while Matt and Lil are in Istanbul? Darryl is looking for work...

 

[pennimania]

I wouldn't be surprised if that Lilian, paul,Matt business just fizzled out.

Well, it probably won't but what I mean is, given the way they build things up and then drop them, I wonder if they have the courage of their convictions.

They didn't with Chris and Alice, did they? Or Farmageddon? Or most recent storylines tbh.

And that Clarrie birthday episode was dire
