I'm starting this new thread as apparently our other one was over a year old!! shock

We'll have to do more gossiping to prevent this happening again.

Here's a link to the old one.

What's happened to Doc Locke?

Tracey's fast becoming my fave character. grin

merlot your posts always make me smile and fall about- thank you flowers

Sara65 Tue 20-Aug-19 17:43:26

Oh yes, Tracey’s a breath of fresh air

eGJ Tue 20-Aug-19 19:15:51

Well done Tracy! duck to water !! I can’t believe she is managing to tame Linda!

What a load of rubbish tonight ! Getting very disillusioned

merlotgran Wed 21-Aug-19 19:26:45

Yes. Neil sounded positively sleazy.

Luckygirl Wed 21-Aug-19 20:09:08

All so improbable - Neil and Brian having a heart to heart. Still it sounds as though they all got their oats today!

Scribbles Wed 21-Aug-19 22:06:42

Not so sure, Luckygirl - Brine sounded as if he might be too much under the affluence of incohol to ... er, come up to expectations

Sara65 Wed 21-Aug-19 22:15:15

Susan will love this bit of gossip if Neil is stupid enough, or drunk enough, to pass it on

merlotgran Wed 21-Aug-19 22:53:38

I'm a bit worried about those candles. We haven't had a fire since Rex's hen house and Harrison never did solve that one.

merlotgran Thu 22-Aug-19 19:21:13

Ooooh! That's two dressings down this week. Susan and now Pip.

I like it. grin

What has happened to Tom and Natasha's honeymoon in Cuba?

eGJ Mon 26-Aug-19 18:57:27

Didn’t they cancel it after Natasha went away in a hissy fit and Tom found out about her credit cards?

katie1 Tue 27-Aug-19 21:07:41

Has anyone else noticed Emma speaks on an 'out breath' making her sound fed up and resigned ? Have to say she was leading Will on a bit tonight, but he was a bit presumptuous.

katie1 Tue 27-Aug-19 21:10:24

Merlot gran, I was wondering about Doc Locke and Elizabeth. Also, all is quiet on the Elizabeth and ? Russ? ( Lillies fella) front?

eGJ Wed 28-Aug-19 07:22:30

Have we heard from Toby lately? That relationship with Pip seems to have simmered down too.

Nanoo15 Thu 29-Aug-19 12:38:53

So many story lines seem to have been left dangling. Thought the ghost thing really stupid. We want to know about Toby, Elizabeth, Russ, Freddy etc and has Natasha maxed out on those credit cards yet? Have the Grundy’s moved?

merlotgran Thu 29-Aug-19 12:47:47

I think the mini-flood at No1 (it was only a washing machine overflowing) was a plot device to give the Grundys longer at Grange Farm so that Joe could die there. They surely can't put the move off much longer though?

The ghost storyline is ridiculous and the least we hear of Shula becoming a vicar the better.

I suppose the birth of Lexi's bebbeee will be the next big storyline.

As a non Archers addict - all I can say is that it is very unpleasant when wou phone family or friends- and they can't drop the Archers for 1 minute.

grumppa Thu 29-Aug-19 15:08:55

It seems to me that the regular script writers have all gone on holiday, and the producers have handed the job over to a bunch of work experience trainees.

Nanoo15 Thu 29-Aug-19 18:54:06

I think you’re right Grumppa, let’s hope they return very soon, we need proper drama!

Nanoo15 Thu 29-Aug-19 19:27:42

Oops, apologies, we DID get some drama tonight!

phoenix Thu 29-Aug-19 20:16:10

Still think Wiwyum needs a slap, but at least Emmur seems to have stopped sighing as she speaks, well, at least for now.

Iam64 Thu 29-Aug-19 20:37:21

Jura - I can’t believe you took the trouble to criticise us, when you acknowledge you are t addicted! I missed a planned walk with friends because I was listening to the omnibus (helen and Rob)

merlotgran Thu 29-Aug-19 21:35:53

I loved Tracey's, 'St. Shula of the Holy Martyrs,' line.
