Archers Addicts.

I’ll bet he is! Hope the upwardly mobile Tom and Natasha get their comeuppance!

I thought Grange Farm belonged to Oliver - will he sell it now? Aldridges want to buy.

Yes, there is a great deal of selective memory in TA. I think it worse in recent years, as they contract certain actors for periods of time - and we have a story line featuring some people who then drop off for months (or even years) at a time. They then 'shoe horn' a character in to a storyline.
I like to say that I have listened since the Archers began - my mum was pregnant with me - so it's true I don't remember the early years (I do remember the fire) and I listened patchily as a teenager (!).
I am always astonished that there are no nurses - occasionally one calls round 'off mic' but the only one who had any say was Amy Franks - and actually as soon as she qualified as a midwife she seemed to stop visiting her dad in Ambridge.
There has also been only one teacher I remember as a character - Kathy Perks who in order to stay in Ambridge had to get a job at the Health Club.

Is it me? Jakob, Christopher, cricketers! But Nocasa being so appalling made up for it?

Nasty Natasha!

Horrid, horrid, horrid!

(Can't remember which member of Senior Royal Household staff said of Sarah Ferguson, "vulgar, vulgar, vulgar", but thought I would bring the triple into play!)

Jennifer seems also to have forgotten how to farm, being only a cook and wife. She did keep Jacob sheep at one time quite successfully.

Now there’s a thought! Jakob and the erstwhile Jacob sheep keeper!?

Can’t bear to listen to Natasha and now her ex is in contact about the juicer receipt Noooooo poor Tom

It is very early for Nocasha to be showing her true colours is it not?

I agree,! No honeymoon period for poor Tom!

Hmm, not so sure that "poorTom" is quite the term I would use!

What a plonker Tom is! Well, they say 'marry in haste repent at leisure'.

Natasha is pretty volatile but Tom is a bit of a drip

Some back story re Yakob and Tandy (whoever she is) methinks!

Yes, the Tom/Natasha (btw, love the "Nocasha" label!) scenario doesn't bode well!

Christopher has raised his profile this week. I am still waiting for Alice's drink problem to be recognised.

What's happened to Rev Alan. No word from him for months on end. Now he's throwing all his spiritual weight behind Shula. Ease up Alan you're in the Church of England.
Just leave the woman alone. She'll sort out her crisis of faith all by herself. ?

I really dislike Alice, I think Chris deserves better

Can someone fill me in as to why Shula now has a horse portrait? Did Leonard buy one and pass it off as his own work?I

I'm not a great Alice fan either, Sara65 too whiney (pun intended!)

Haha!

The actor who plays Joe Grundy has died!

Oh sad! I hadn’t heard that!

Was announced on the 4pm news.

Wondering how they will feed it in, when the actor that played Phil died in rl, Jill came back from an outing (trip, not of a gay person) to find him dead in his armchair.

Wouldn't think they would use the same scenario with Joe, but no doubt they will make play of the fact that he died while still living at Grange Farm.

I was thinking that Phoenix, at least he won’t have to leave his beloved home
