The Archers

[hellywelly4]

I've started a new thread, hope that's ok.
Just wanted to shout at Ruth tonight, she really is getting so irritating. Does she expect them to discuss every detail of everything with her!

Hellywelly4 - Thank you for your concern, yes I'm fine now. A widowed member of the choir I sang with and his friend, picked up bad vibes and, bless him he offered me a refuge - no strings - despite the gossip that ensued. Over the next few years feelings warmed and he is now my darling Mr. J2 and I am very happy indeed :) x

I thought Bert was living at Brookfield?

[murraymints]

am I the only person on the planet that has NEVER listened to The Archers ??

[hellywelly4]

Probably. But then, I don't watch the soaps on tv. Each to his own!

[jourdain2]

Very probably, Minty, never too late to start (although complicated you should pick up hints here!). I never watch any soaps on TV, the Archers is inbred!

[Hopkirk]

I hadn't until last year, Minty.

It takes quite some effort to get to know the characters, but it is worth it.

[sunny-dave]

It's all quite simple, minty.

Just read this week's summaries and you'll be up to speed in no time

A soap??? How dare you call The Archers a SOAP!! It's an everyday story of countryfolk, with an input from DEFRA, or whoever they are, of helpful advice for the farmers, social-mountaineering advice from Linda and a moral story about avoiding dodgy men like RT, though Helen's not a listener.

[mikey4444]

Agree....The Archers is most certainly not a soap ! What a thing to suggest !

[Hopkirk]

Who is Pip going to end up with?

Toby, Rex or the contract milker?

[hellywelly4]

Cracks are starting to appear - I knew he would dash home when he heard the doorbell ring.

[mikey4444]

RT is getting more sinister by the day...he is really starting to frighten me !

I wish Soppy Helen would pick up little Henry and run !

[Hopkirk]

Oo er, I missed last nights.

I had better tune in at 2, or perhaps I'll listen on line this morning.

[Hopkirk]

I've just listened, and I think I need one of these:

How dare he go on about Adam, when he started the affair with Helen when he was married.

It's interesting to put faces to voices!

[mikey4444]

Hadn't realised that Sian Phillips was in the cast...who is "Jean" ?

[frugalfred]

It's the 65th anniversary on New Year's Day. I wonder if anything special is being cooked up?

[frugalfred]

Jean is one of those characters spoken of but never heard - like Sabrina Thwaite, or Bert's late wife Freda.

[mikey4444]

Perhaps RT will be trampled to death by a herd of angry cows ? Better still, pecked to death by the brothers geese !
