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!

I am feeling a bit suspicious of this potential new vet. She reacted with surprise when Shula said Alistair was cutting the charges for the the care of Joe Grundy's pony.

I think most vets living in a village and knowing the local families financial difficulties would probably do this for a pensioner.

Is that possible new partner wanting to grab as much income as she can with no compassion? Watch this space!

Too right Luckygirl. Justin wouldn't have dreamt of employing Rob IRL, let alone invite him on shoot. Have to keep reminding self it's only pretend!
Hurrah by the way. The gremlins attacking the Gransnet site seem to have gone.......Couldn't post for couple of days.

Where is Lilians influence in all this Justin/ Rob malarkey???

There's a good spoiler on the Mumsnet thread which (fingers crossed) will give Lil a chance to have her say.

Could Justin be setting up Rob for a long fall?

merlotgran Thu 03-Nov-16 16:49:29

That's what I'm hoping for, mrshat. There has to be a reason behind all the opportunities that are dropping into Rob's hat via Justin. A successful business man wouldn't be so blinkered surely?

Looking more and more likely that Roy and Kirsty will get together I think.

Lazigirl Thu 03-Nov-16 17:20:30

I think Roy and Kirstie a definite no no. I'm still hoping she's pregnant from liaison with Tom.

AyjayF Thu 03-Nov-16 19:27:58

Apart from the general awfulness of Rob how us he getting away with his snide comments about Adams sexuality? Oh and please could someone just punch him (not asking for a friend)

merlotgran Thu 03-Nov-16 19:36:48

If Brian doesn't complain to Justin in the strongest possible terms, he's a complete prat.

phoenix Thu 03-Nov-16 19:40:21

I'm back to shouting at the radio again!

Lazigirl Thu 03-Nov-16 19:44:08

Surely Rob's picked on the most unlikely character in Brian to bully? He's no walkover.

merlotgran Thu 03-Nov-16 20:21:46

I still can't get my head around the fact an ex dairy manager is throwing his weight around a huge arable enterprise. He can ride roughshod over the managers or tenant farmers under him but in the end he's answerable to the board and Brian is the chairman hmm

Glad Kirstie walked out of the audition.

merlotgran Fri 04-Nov-16 20:25:33

Was anyone surprised when Rob turned up to the auditions?

It's all getting a bit silly now.

phoenix Sat 05-Nov-16 00:15:26

Agree, merlot unless it's all part of the "Rob not seeing that he's done anything wrong" syndrome.

Personally, I'm looking forward to the next court bit when the pysch assessment comes to light. Of course, I may have got all this wrong.....blush

What could Rob play in the Panto? Presumably the evil baron or whatever the equivalent is in Mother Goose. Or the back end of the horse.

Elrel Mon 07-Nov-16 07:06:13

Rob the One Man Panto Show!!

AyjayF Mon 07-Nov-16 19:52:32

Don't do it Lillian!!

merlotgran Mon 07-Nov-16 19:57:32

How can Lilian possibly say to Helen, 'Oh Daaaaahling. You know I said we will do everything as a family to protect your boys from that evil man? Well, since our chat I've decided to let him rent one of Amside's houses. That's not going to be a problem is it, Daaaaaahling?'

hmm

Elrel Mon 07-Nov-16 23:02:50

He'll soon be blackmailing Lilian & Justin.
Panto - he could be The Rotten Egg maybe ...

Nelliemoser Mon 07-Nov-16 23:08:58

Adam and Lillian seem to get on well together. Adam needs to talk to Lillian about getting Justin on her side. In or out of bed.

AyjayF Tue 08-Nov-16 08:08:53

Storyline would be much more interesting if Lilian didn't rent property to Rob. Have him scrabbling around for somewhere to live.
