Archers Addicts.

I have only just noticed this thread. Some of you might already know it but there's a forum "Mustardland" about The Archers you might like:

At least he's "only" lost work and not been reported to the police.
I expected him to be caught dumping. Hope that's not next week's story....

Oh no, Ed!!?

Now Emmer is sure as eggs going to be one cross lady!!!!

Yes poor Ed, just reinforces the idea that once your ‘down’ like the Grundys you stay down. Pity there wasn’t a negative storyline about that self righteous Kirstie!!! Joking but......

Oh Ed; poor Emma! Where will it all end? I know we all predicted it, but I think we all thought it would work out all right. The one liners in the RT are not suggestive of good things to come. ?

Thanks Merlot. The storm clouds are gathering, and I don't mean the current weather!

Jim and Robert back together squabbling about birds in the hide. Bliss!!

Dodgy Tim warned Ed that his family might be threatened if he tried to pull out of the delivery jobs. Emma then told Ed that somebody had driven into the back of her car at a junction but obviously thought it was just an inconsiderate idiot. Ed, sh**ting himself after hearing this, tells Tim he wants out but he's obviously still 'in'

Poor Emma.

I missed Emma and the car incident, what happened?? I cannot bear the build up to the lovely house that Emma & Ed are preparing for before it all goes belly up. Poor Ed.

Did Emma not wonder how the man who ran into her car knew her phone number?

They didn't exchange details did they. I thought he just swore at her and drove off.

Oh - was she off about their marriage? - I must have forgotten that!

I do agree about hr - Jesus is entirely welcome to her!

I think Alan is astonishingly patient with Shula - I would expect him to be polite and professional - but to have the kind of conversations they have recently makes me think the SWs have forgotten about Shula and Usha's history.
And that reminds me of another peeve I have - that nurses and midwives are always brushed out of Ambridge - even Alice doesn't mention Amy any more. Teachers also get only an occasional look-in - Kathy Perks had a short run before she got shunted into a proper rural occupation (!)

And she still has not changed her mind about Alan and Usha’s marriage. Seems to becoming more and more annoying since she suddenly decided to ditch Alastair. I’m wondering too about Jo as I can’t find any clues in the one-liners on TA website!

Shula is soooo sanctimonious!

I'm so glad that Jesus loves Shula because I can't stand her!

I'm still wondering when Joe is going to die, the actor who played him died months ago!

I see your husbands reasoning, Will and Emmer must have two of the most irritating voices on radio, and be two of the wingiest (don’t think that’s a word) characters

But please don’t let them kill off Ed, clarrie and Eddie couldn’t bear it

I would prefer that Will was killed by mistake instead of Ed! I can't stand his wingeing (Sp?)

My DH is convinced that Ed will be killed by the nasties, and that Emma & Will will eventually get back together as they once were. And at least that would stop two other innocent people being driven mad!

Thanks for the update Sara65

Sisteract The only major storyline you've missed is that Jim, we discovered was abused as a child, and his abuser turned up at his (unpleasant) surprise birthday party. He hadn't told anyone before so is in a real state. Joe hasn't died (only in RL of course), and Ed not caught and banged up........yet!

SisterAct

I keep missing it for the simple reason that I sit down to listen, and fall asleep!

So I feel I may have missed some important episodes

For various reasons I have missed several weeks. Is Ed still in trouble with his extra work ? Has Joe died yet ?

There's so much padding which can be rather boring I think merlot in between nuggets of topical story lines, which I agree they often do well, such as Jim's abuse.
