Archers Addicts 5 !!!!!

Aagghhhh!!!!

Have to go to mumsnet and see the spoilers now but, of course, they will not help ...

If he was going to kidnap Henry he could have done so already. He is obviously desperate and living rough, sounded dishevelled and with no way of keeping Henry if he does abduct him. Planning something nasty for Helen. Oh No!

I think he's going to kidnap Jack. Mummy's surprise will be a ruse to distract her.

I don't think Rob wants Henry. He's just using him to get Jack.

I thought Helen sounded very unsure that he had gone Nellie but really what can she do. Please let someone at the school have seen him.

I never for a moment thought that Rob was off the scene.

I am suprised that Helen etc does not seem to have been warned that he was very unlikely to go away quietly.
They should have been aware that Henry was very likely to be approached by Rob and the school warned to keep a watch out. Her advisors have failed her there.

Do you think Rob will try to kidnap Jack/Gideon or both children or take revenge on Helen herself?
The most dangerous time for a women experiencing domestic abuse is when she has left her abuser.

Sounds like he's been hanging around the school for some time and chatting to Henry.

Surely someone would spot him. A man with a dodgy beard would soon set alarm bells ringing. Most parents are on automatic alert these days.

I don't like the sound of Helen's surprise and the fact that Rob may have to go away afterwards.

Prison???

A kidnapping in the offing?

Nooooo ...

OMG what is he up to this time? I thought he was going to snatch Henry

I was rather pleased that Patrick finally spoke her mind to Ursula. I have a feeling that we haven't seen or heard the last of the Twitcheners yet. Rob is probably sat stewing on how he can get his own back on all those that he thinks have "wronged him". Kidnapping the children? Holding Helen hostage?

I didn't see Pat as cruel, more as a mother and grandmother who was treated appallingly by Ursula, who is and will continue to be picking up the pieces of the devastation Rob (supported by Ursula) wreaked on Helen and Henry. Someone who supported Tony as he attempted to make the contact arrangements work. No I wasn't at all surprised that for once, Pat let rip.

Am I the only only who thought Pat was really cruel to Ursula when she came looking for Rob. Much as I dislike all the monstrous Titchner family this was a desperate mother looking for her missing son. Surely as a mother herself Pat should have shown a little compassion.

Definitely Chewbacca, so if Pip swaps her allegiance, as the plot seems to be indicating, there will end up being 'trouble at mill farm'.

Has the new vet, Anisha, got her eyes on Rex do you think? She seemed a bit keen to be introduced to him and has involved him in her cheating drinking contest with Jazz and?

Lilian can't expect Helen to keep more secrets from her parents and brother. That's what she did under Rob's oppression, secrets and lies arent going to help Helen. Her parents and tom will be hurt if she doesn't tell them. Plus as everyone is asking, where is he? Has henry seen him and that's what disturbed his sleep
Get a grip Helen. Lilian may have loyalty to Justin and his business, you dont

I don't think they'll let Rob go quietly - there's a dramatic tension in the air. I'm not warming to the new vet by the way. I didn't like what she did to Jazzer.

I wonder which way things will go. This is either the new editor deciding to get rid of Rob and move on from a very long drawn out storyline or......he's going to pop up when Helen least expects it.

Well done, Lilian for putting Helen in the picture but Rob's even more scary when he's not around.

Has anybody warned Jess I wonder?

Which stone is Rob hiding under? Can Harrison check where his car is? I can completely understand Helen not going out, she should also ask the school to keep Henry in the building until someone arrives to pick him up.

I'm still grinning

At a slight tangent, the voice of Justin Elliott appeared at the end of Eastenders today, with plans for redeveloping he East End and choosing a dodgy character as his sidekick. It was the same actor, and a very similar script. More BBC economies?

you're not your - sorry

I would have thought so LG but your right, proving it might be difficult.

Isn't what Rob did likely to be a criminal matter, if his actions were the main contributing factor to the village flood and Freda's death? Surely now that Lilian and Justin know this they are withholding evidence if they do not report it, but whether it can be proved may be difficult. We need Charlie's help here.

I agree Nelliemoser, Susan in particular is often the grit in the oyster that is TA and, of course, there are people like her.

(I sometimes think WS may be a SW with the machinations that go on)
