The Archers

Are there any farm animals still mooching about Ambridge? If it wasn't for the occasional reference to veg. boxes or the Farm Shop I certainly wouldn't connect Ambridge with all things rural.

And the current avalanche of new and returning characters (Uncle Cloive and now Gavin), assorted one-offs dipping in and out, just has me seriously puzzled nowadays.

I think it was the Covid adaptations and those weary monologues that replaced normal episodes that has 'done' for The Archers.

Bringing Leonard back centre stage is yet another annoyance (and he is very annoying) And having Gavin wringing people’s heart strings after what he and his father did is stretching things too far!

Why didn’t David just do up the button on Leonard’s trousers himself instead of waiting for Jill who now sounds terribly frail.

I wonder if Peggy’s death will be the Christmas shocker!

Probably a double death... Peggy and Leonard in the dining room with a pie?

🤣 you’ve just cheered up a dark cold day notS

Is Leonard meant to be some kind of Frank Spencer character?

He hasn't been up until now.

Brenda’s brief appearance has been odd…and she doesn’t appear next week though sadly the newly clumsy Leonard does!

What is going on! The whole thing is a farce.

Who is writing this nonsense?

It’s going to be the easiest house sale ever! As if

And what kind of person has Brenda turned into??
😱

Helen has turned her nose up at living in April Cottage but she’s OK with squeezing in with Tom, Natasha and the twins. 🤔

Hurry up and shuffle off, Peggy. They need what’s left of your dosh!

Is there any left? After the re-wilding donation?

I cannot believe Helen thinks having FOUR extra people under her (as it is now) roof will create anything but trouble!

What idiot thought that scenario up?
Obviously the same person who took inspiration for Leonard from the "Carry on" films

As we have all said before they really should ask GNetters to become in charge of ALL scripts😊

Tom and family will buy Kirsty's house. Helen and family will move to the farm, sharing it with Tony and Pat while their eco home is built.

There will be a lot of toing and froing to get there, otherwise there isn't a story.

If only the toing and froing was interesting and believable….

I wonder who might possibly been visiting George in prison. Hmmm….. let me think🤔

No! Surely not Clive! 😱

Obviously Clive!

Christmas lunch in a yurt?😗

The lull before the next big drama is always mind numbingly boring. I just tune in spasmodically so missed the trouser button incident…….damn!

What the heck? Brian liking knitted ferrets!

I always thought Rochelle was a myth……..and the yurt meal turned out very well after all.

I thought Brian had turned uncharacteristically sentimental and a lover of knitted ferrets as a build up to a fatal heart attack at Christmas 🤔

Me, too, Farzanah.
