Hellywelly....I have been an Archers listener for over 35 years now, long before Rob was even thought of.
I can recall other hard storylines, such as when Brian tried to seduce Betty Tucker and when he had the illegitimate child with green-eyed Irish temptress. He and Caroline had a long term relationship, that his missus never knew about.
I can also recall when Roy Tucker was making racist attacks on Usha, and when most of the Archer girls had unhealthy relationships with unsavoury men. And of course there was dear old Nigel, who I still miss, years after he slipped off that roof
The list is endless ! So this current story-line is just the latest in a long series and it will still be going on long after my demise, so stay with it !
