So, as the trial has been and gone, we are all glad that Helen won, and Rob had his true self revealed, will the rift 'tween Adam & Ian be healed?

Whose jam will be judged to be the best? Will Joe approach his final rest?

Will Grange Farm rent be paid on time?

Can I be arsed inspired to write more drivel rhyme?

Away we go!

He sounded the same to me Ayjay.

Is this a new Matt?

Some great storylines on the go at the moment.

I always saw him as a cad! Sadly, I fear Lilian's need for excitement may get the better of her. Mind you, she's between two unreliable, unfaithful, self seeking men isn't she. Maybe Mat will be broke but then, Miranda will no doubt do all she can to ensure Justin is as well.

Does anyone else remember Matt's habit of never being able to just say "No" or "Yes"?

It was always "Na, na, na" or "Yeah, yeah, yeah"

You're right to describe Lilian as a risk taker. Her personality isn't going to change at this stage of her life. She enjoyed an affair with Justin but I dont believe she has ever been besotted with him, as she was with Mat. I wish she ask for her money and belongings back and send him packing. Likely? ?

GracesGranMK2 Sun 09-Apr-17 13:41:27

I have got Lilian so wrong in the past so I am reluctant to feel I understand her character but Peggy did say she had been really hurt and that she (Lillian) wouldn't let that happen again - so I am hoping 'Peggy' understands her daughter.

Trouble is Lilian's character is a risk taker who likes living on the edge and having a lot of fun. Not sure she'll settle for a comfortable pampered life with Justin. We'll see. She is getting a bit long in the tooth now for all the angst that Matt brings.

GracesGranMK2 Sun 09-Apr-17 09:31:04

Matt stole from her and took all her security - financial and personal - away. I would like her to be written telling him where to go - hopefully after he pays back what he took.

HannahLoisLuke Sun 09-Apr-17 09:24:42

Can't wait to hear Lilian's reaction, and Justin's.
I used to like Matt and Lilian together, they were funny, though Matt was always dodgy.

I prefer this Pip to the old whiney one but yes the "Tobee" is awful. Prefer this Tom too, the old one sounded just too smug.

David and Ruth have long got on my nerves, but after all that I'll still listen. Why stop now when I've been a fan since the first episode and I was a child of around seven.

Lots of s**t hitting various fans at the moment.

Bring it on grin

Iam64 Sat 08-Apr-17 09:11:24

Oh My! The various Archers groups have been calling for the return of Tiger - never thought it would happen. What a cracking Friday night cliff hanger.

Hopehope Sat 08-Apr-17 00:15:58

LOL I just saw my typing error THEY Archers. Must have caught that from Clarrie

Hopehope Sat 08-Apr-17 00:14:52

I always listen to the Archers in the bath, it is my little bit of ME time, but when I heard that " Pusscat" I almost slipped under the water in shock grin. Anyone else think they Archers are trying too hard now. We don't need something dramatic happening so often, surely. It is a tale of farming Folk in a rural environment. I agree about Pip too, cannot stand this " new" one

AyjayF Fri 07-Apr-17 23:28:49

Ooohh, tiger!!!

GracesGranMK2 Fri 07-Apr-17 22:40:49

I think that is the wrong bare/bear - sorry. I would have to look it up and I am tired now so forgive me confused

GracesGranMK2 Fri 07-Apr-17 22:38:49

Isn't it just and the fallout when they know about Pip and the cows doesn't bare thinking about.

Lovely bit with Lynda and Kirsty though.

Lazigirl Fri 07-Apr-17 22:35:32

What a turn up! I've still got my rose coloured ones on GGMk2. Here's hoping for happy ending. Bit gloomy round Ambridge at the mo.

GracesGranMK2 Fri 07-Apr-17 20:00:25

Life can be pretty bad at timing LG. My hopes are that she sees just how much better off she is and can be really happy.

I'll take the rose coloured glasses off now sad

Luckygirl Fri 07-Apr-17 19:51:13

Well - that's just plain silly and beyond credence that he should wander in at that moment.

phoenix Fri 07-Apr-17 19:51:08

Meant to add shockshockshock

phoenix Fri 07-Apr-17 19:50:30

As Mr P would say, WELL!

chelseababy Fri 07-Apr-17 19:49:57

That's put the Pusscat among the pigeons!!!!

HannahLoisLuke Fri 07-Apr-17 19:40:20

Is it the same actor? Think I need to listen again!

merlotgran Fri 07-Apr-17 19:22:20

That made me gasp!

Oh dear Lil. What now?
