"Alas poor Scruff, I knew him well, who could forget that pungent smell?"

Certainly there seems a meeting of stories with the trial and the search of the culvert. Fingers crossed.

phoenix Tue 30-Aug-16 22:05:59

hmm

confused

Are we all still on the same planet?

aggie Tue 30-Aug-16 22:09:32

G G that is very pretty

Gracesgran Tue 30-Aug-16 22:12:01

Once the trial is over, whatever the outcome, the press will be able to report on it. I wonder if they would make something of the reasons why Helen pleaded self-defence? Also the gossip machine would be working in the village reporting back what was said. I wonder if more will come to light after the trial?

Gracesgran Tue 30-Aug-16 22:18:50

Thanks aggie. I don't know why I find zips difficult - it's not sewing them its even getting that far! At least this thread can always be relied on as a distraction while courage growsblush Totally daft of course but I am grateful to those who were kind enough to bare with me yesterday while I crept off topic and my apologies to those who didn't understand what I was going on aboutgrin

Nelliemoser Tue 30-Aug-16 22:20:21

Iam Now come on my dear I think you are getting just a little bit carried away with your plot lines.wink grin

Gracesgran Tue 30-Aug-16 22:27:53

Louiza Patikas, Timothy Watson and Tim Stimpson on The Archers Trial Week

This is a repeat of some of the information we have seen but it is what the BBC is flagging up today so I thought it worth the link in case anyone has missed it.

LullyDully Wed 31-Aug-16 08:39:22

I was.reading Mumsnet and they are on about finding something or someone nasty that Rob has put in it it.

Iam64 Wed 31-Aug-16 08:43:56

LD do you mean in the culvert? I've just seen something on another forum about that. Are we about to find the black plastic bin liner Rob used to block the culvert, or Stefan????

Gracesgran Wed 31-Aug-16 09:49:05

LD are you reading another thread on Mumsnet other than the spoilers one? If so can you put a link please or tell us what its title is?

merlotgran Wed 31-Aug-16 10:23:23

There are hints at a 'shocking revelation' which has obviously got to be in Helen's favour or there's no point in it.

I think Henry holds the key to it all.

AyjayF Wed 31-Aug-16 11:56:25

I'm on tenterhooks !!!!!

Gracesgran Wed 31-Aug-16 12:30:21

It seems a long time until Sunday AyjayF and then we will only get the case drip by dripsad

Where I stayed a couple of weeks ago they had good Wifi In one part of the house only. So every evening I went down there to download the days Archers. I just hope there will be a decent signal in Shetland. We will be in three different hotels over the week.

Nelliemoser Wed 31-Aug-16 12:59:52

Good heavens! One hotel is the most northerly hotel in the UK stuck on the island of Unst.
I guess our organiser has negotiated a good price. He has taken groups to the Northern Isles many times.

I will have to stop peeping at this thread if I can't get the complete weeks WiFi connection.

Solidari-tea for Helen

Whatever next?? grin

Gracesgran Wed 31-Aug-16 14:03:28

It's been going on for days merlot. I assumed it was fund-raising but perhaps notconfused This was an explaination with one tea raising photo:

Thank you to everyone so far who has raised a cup and a message of solidari-tea with Helen and real people in similar situations. You can do it too on Facebook or Twitter. It would be lovely to see your pics. #FreeHelen

merlotgran Wed 31-Aug-16 19:20:55

I so DON'T care about Tom and his Nuffield.

Iam64 Wed 31-Aug-16 20:41:11

Nellie - I do hope you can either find wifi or get therapy to help with withdrawal smile

annodomini Wed 31-Aug-16 21:21:20

Nellie, I think Shetland is quite well served with wi-fi because of the oil business and the prosperity it has brought to the islands. That may be drying up now due to the collapse in the price of oil. sad

phoenix Wed 31-Aug-16 21:44:40

Why hasn't Ian told anyone about Rob trying to intimidate him?

merlotgran Wed 31-Aug-16 21:57:32

I wondered that as well, phoenix but then I suppose Rob would deny it as there were no witnesses and the last time they had an altercation, Ian hit him.

NfkDumpling Thu 01-Sept-16 08:07:13

Rob is always very careful that there are no witnesses when he puts people down. Divide and rule. Each person he gets at thinks everyone else likes him and they're the only one to feel his wrath. That stops them speaking out.
