The Archers

Cue: Enter Dr Richard Locke, Stage left.

Ah yes - she was sniffing round him a bit when he last surfaced in Ambridge.

Yes she was, but he was more interested in eligible widow Elizabeth it seemed!

Yet another storyline that went nowhere but Ambridge folk seem to have been conditioned not to bother the doctor. I bet Henry and Jack never get tummy bugs or tonsillitis.

He must have an easy life. He didn't even have to turn out for Nic.

This is not real. They are characters. Why listen if you don't enjoy it? I am stunned that people bother.

I think you will find this thread is light-hearted and tongue-in-cheek.

PS We all know it is not real - honest!

I think you will find any thread is what the posters make it LG, rather than what someone says it is.

I think you'll find that the posters have always set out to make the Archers threads light hearted, Graces

Nobody joked about Nic's death but there are always two main topics on the go with each episode so there's always something light hearted to discuss despite the more serious issues.

What do you mean “It’s not real” Luckygirl?
You’ll be dishing the dirt on F.C. ? and the Tooth Fairy ?‍♀️ next!

No merlot. Some posters have. You cannot possibly talk for all - just a bit arrogant to try and do so, surely. I thought all posters were equal on GN. I like the light-hearted bits; you assume an awful lot about others.

“Arrogant” to express an opinion? ?

I'd love to see you post something like that on the Mumsnet Archers thread, Graces

They'd eat you for breakfast.

No, Maw that is not what I said and I rather think you know that. I was talking about the assumption that anyone could know what everybody else thought or wanted from this thread.

The assumption was however only an opinion though.

Are you more of a mumsnetter than a Gransnetter Merlot? I have noticed a few come over here for their arguments.

Not a knowledgeable opinion then MawBroon as many a conversation on here has been more serious. We have had both, and people have joined in both, so from the evidence this is not just about light-heartedness.

Some posters, at times, take The Archer's very seriously indeed at times and I don't think adults need Merlot to tell them when they should and when they should not.

at times

Storm, teacup.

bed/wrong side?

[Sigh]

No, Graces, I'm not a mumsnetter but I find their Archers thread lively, entertaining and very funny.

Nothing wrong with having a sense of humour.

Do you mind not attacking me personally LG. I am no different today than any other day Merlot just tried to try and slap me down. I will not be slapped! If you continue with these attacks I will report them.

So accusing me of being arrogant for daring to have an opinion is not a personal attack, Graces?

Slapping?

I did not accuse you of being arrogant merlot - report it if you don't believe me. I said that talking for all just a bit arrogant. It is, whoever does it. Enough of this for me. You do it deliberately and it is not the first time.

Do what deliberately?
