Is anyone still listening or have you given up?

Was he looking for the phone number for his daughter?

I also suspect he won't go it seemed all too easy.

I think/hope George will wise up to Clive, give himself up, I can’t help but feel a bit sorry for him.. I think if I was his mother I would shop him, getting rid of Clive by doing so but landing George in prison but you can’t let an innocent person take the blame.
How many marriages are like Fallons, she does not want children, her husband does, he loves her so accepts it.
Archers has little to do farming and more about the people and causes.

I wonder if the Archers scriptwriters are incapable of running two (or more) interesting storylines simultaneously?

eGJ Mon 02-Sept-24 20:24:25

Both Brad and Mia seem to be starting term at university a week early, but that’s what probably suits the script writers. And what rubbish was the rubbish storyline!

AT LAST!!!!

Thank goodness for Susan and Joy! 👏👏

I'm wondering if going up Lakey Hill is a euphemism for something else? blushblushblush

Iam64 Tue 03-Sept-24 20:00:09

RosiesMaw, surely not
Especially if Susan’s chilli is involved

Delila Tue 03-Sept-24 20:02:45

Now we’re getting somewhere - Susan’s on the case! 👍🏼

Wyllow3 Tue 03-Sept-24 20:20:29

Hopeful hopeful....Susan talks to Chris.............

I think it always has been, RM!

Are Brad and Mia practising for a Silly Voice Contest?

Plus, today's episode was a right mish-mash of pointless waffle.

merlotgran Wed 04-Sept-24 19:46:16

Every time Ian features in an episode, I think, Shoot me now!

eGJ Wed 04-Sept-24 20:07:51

🤣 merlot you will be happy that he’s not going to appear next week!

Me too! 😁

I'm okay with Ian. It's Pip who has that effect on me. Can't stand the character or the actor's voice.👎

mae13 Thu 05-Sept-24 00:00:03

Oh, it's Alistair's voice that makes me want to climb the walls - he always sounds as if he's eternally apologising. What a drip.

NotSpaghetti Thu 05-Sept-24 00:11:12

Pip, Mia, Ian and Alistair are all from the same "shoot me now" voice/script school.
.... and then there's Mr Plod! 😬

It's the result of the BBC's relentless pursuit of diversity.......Lord save us.

NotSpaghetti Thu 05-Sept-24 10:09:34

mae13 I'm not sure it can be that or I would have to say "which one is this" when the younger males are on.
Or Stella and the other same-voiced woman?

Where is Usha?

eGJ Thu 05-Sept-24 19:16:04

A good Friday night episode!

eGJ Thu 05-Sept-24 19:16:41

I’m confused……a good Thursday night episode 🙂

merlotgran Thu 05-Sept-24 19:17:47

Wow! Great acting tonight, especially Neil and Susan.
