You know what - I'm bored already with this storyline

We probably won't find out who dunnit for a very long time if Harrison is investigating.

He still hasn't found the bunting!!

I think Matt's down but not yet out and Lilian will go rushing to his bedside. Arrgh!

Forgot Shula's outburst earlier in the week that Matt had been behind all their problems.

Ah Lily ....?Is he dead though?

MawBroon Sun 29-Oct-17 22:16:21

Lily who sounds a bit of a teenage demon driver?
Matt’s Uber taxi driver?

Rex on his way home from Scotland.

Anisha ditto

MawBroon Sun 29-Oct-17 22:04:48

Nik who has rushed off to a poorly child?

If you listened to the comment after the programme it sounded as if Matt wasn't dead - at least not yet. But I could have misheard.

Suspects:
Justin no where to be found
Adam gone home early
My wild-card would be Brian Aldridge as he drives too fast (and kills cats)
Any more?

Now am going to have to listen quick on catch up!

MawBroon Sun 29-Oct-17 20:15:24

So who has bumped him off? Justin? Adam? Noli high on magic mushrooms?

merlotgran Sun 29-Oct-17 19:25:47

Wouldn't life in Ambridge be a lot easier if Lilian just turned that dratted phone OFF?

Spoiler Alert. Matt bites the dust. Well good! Am tired of the silly storyline with sex obsessed septuagenarian
antics. Am ditching TA until they get a new script writer.

There have been a few things recently that have made me think the scripts are being written by someone who has no idea of rural life or Archer's characters.
Totally agree about the rent / hire tux / DJ
Matt can play dirty when he needs to, but the way he spoke to Adam was quite out of character.
Freddy showed no knowledge at all about hallucinogenic mushrooms and how to handle them - although I presume the ones they ate weren't actually hallucinogenic, and we're working up to some 'incident'
(I listen a bit late so apologies if I'm behind the times!)

Lets hope they both disappear into the sunset.

midgey Sun 29-Oct-17 12:33:03

Always supposing Lillian hasn’t left the country with Matt after the ball!

merlotgran Sun 29-Oct-17 10:17:55

I've had enough of that silly old slapper Lilian as well.

Even once the hunt ball has been and gone we'll no doubt have a build up to the non wedding of the year at Christmas.

Can't find the old thread.

How silly the Matt storyline is - like the Rob storyline it is OTT. No-one is as villainous as Matt is being portrayed - they have just made him a stereotype of evil and it is ridiculous. I have never met anyone who encapsulates evil to this degree.

Stop it now you crazy scriptwriters and give as some storylines that reflect real life.
