The Archers

Yes I just didn't believe it, I thought it was all going to be a misunderstanding, it was jarring.

I didn't see that coming and thought it was a very clumsy resolution of the mystery, as if it had been devised by a group of 10 year olds.

I had begun to think that maybe George was genuinely trying to redeem himself - but maybe he doesn't plan to use that recording for blackmail snd will simply save it somewhere secure as in insurance policy in case he ever needs it.

Me too Elrel.

This is the silliest plot line I have ever heard on The Archers.

Is it a ramshackle excuse to write Brian out ? I believe Charles Collingwood wants to retire, and his wife who plays Shula has already gone.

Just when I was enjoying George making a bit of an effort.

I shall keep listening because of Chelsea. She is a delight.

Somewhat stunned by 12 February episode.

Never too late to start listening again keepingquiet - I’ve done it many times and it’s always been easy to pick up the threads 😊

I haven't listened for years- not sure why I stopped but it's too late to start again.

I guess Josh marrying Esme and the happy couple running her farm happily ever after is on the back burner for a few years!
Or does Amber dump George for Brad so Josh has a rival?
Wondering how far ahead SW plans are laid…

Is Stella one step nearer to getting her hands on Brookfield?

How can Fallon mis-recognise Harrison?
The gait of people we love is surely engraved in us?

These two never seem to manage to be reasonable in the way they talk to each other. What are they doing together?

Oh, what a tangled web.... This is getting very complicated!

Well Maggiemaybe you were certainly ahead of the game with the George attack incident.

And though he's been to apologise - he seemed not so very contrite once he got home!

I’ve just watched Bargain Hunt on iPlayer, an Archers special with Jazzer and Tracy against Lillian and Justin.
I had to Google the heights of Simon Williams and Sunny Ormonde!

Could Brad have done it and Tracey deleted the cctv? Tracey works at the pub doesn't she?

Harrison would surely know how to do it - he's a police officer and must spend a fair portion of his working hours dealing with cctv.
I am trying to remember what he told the detective who questioned him about why he'd gone home - might have to replay that to satisfy my curiosity. But I do remember a conversation between Lilian and Fallon about how quiet it was in the pub so the opportunity was probably there for him to sneak into the back office (or wherever) and do the necessary.

The plot thickens, who had the knowledge and opportunity to delete the cctv at The Bull?

Elrel I think it's Kiera personally.
She won't say why she's afraid to be alone in the house with him.

Just wonder where the bottle came from though - as I'm not sure we know George to have been carrying one.

Well I’m an Omnibus listener, so won’t hear all this till Sunday, but I gather George has been attacked and without knowing any of the details, I’d still put my money on Harrison having done it.

Scribbles
I am sorry to say you may be right. Is runaway Keira a possibility? Or Amber?

My money's on Harrison.

The Archers celebrated 75 years yesterday. Longest running soap. I have listened for about 30 of those years.
Celia imry did a recap of the last 75 years in 75 seconds, it was very funny.

Oh, Moaning Minnie George has mutated into evil Uncle Clive Horrobin and The Archers has mutated into Coronation Street.

Weary, dreary and thoroughly ruined.

Surely Fallon wouldn’t do such a dastardly deed! And the cut hand seemed a bit of an obvious clue. It would be very out of character for Brad too. My money is on Brian! He may be old but he’s fierce. Suspicious how Jazza didn’t seem to want to go down the lane where he was though. Oooo! Enjoying the intrigue!

Oooh. So whodunnit, then?

I have listen to the Archers for about 40 years and only in the last few months stopped. I got fed up with the George / Amber saga and lost interest.
But think I will see if I can catch up with the storyline after reading this thread. Thanks

I was getting bored with the Archers and nearly stopped listening during the autumn. Glad now after last night's epi that I hung in there!
I'm wondering, too if one of the Brookfield Archer lads will end up with Esme.
