Even Newer Archers Thread !

[mikey4444]

Here it is !

Last night was interesting, but puzzling. How on earth can Tom justify going off on his travels, when his sister will standing trial in a few weeks ?

[Hopkirk]

Just binge on it when you get back.

[zebo]

I've listened to The Archers all over the world through my phone or tablet, I listened to Helen stab Rob in a long queue to see the Princesses at Disneyworld, another British woman in the queue joined me, the Americans were bemused!

[mikey4444]

Vorsprung durch Technik !

[Hopkirk]

I know a bit of German - that means 'very good cars'

[jourdain2]

Can it really be right that Shula won't be allowed to testify about what she saw? If so, I'm appalled.

[zebo]

I think the German is something along the lines of Progress Through Technology though they don't seem too keen on using it these days, too much technology maybe! It would be very suspicious if Shula were to stand up in court and make a statement regarding the hunt when she had said something totally different at the time. It wouldn't advance Helen's cause and it could land her in prison.

[mikey4444]

Zebo is correct here.

What Helen's brief has to establish is that the stabbing was down to a motive of self defence, for her and little Henwe. The last thing she needs is for a dodgy witness to turn up in court and be torn apart by Rob's brief. Shula is a liar and it will childs play for that to be proven in court.

Last night, Rob deliberately went out of his way to see Jess, and I guess that was all about making her so frightened that she won't be able to help Helen. He really is the most calculating of individuals.

[zebo]

He seemed close to losing it in the car with Henry when Henry was defying him and kicking the seat, hopefully he'll remember the sharp words when he speaks to the social service person. I expected Rob to be a but more threatening to Jess than he was.

[mikey4444]

Its not just Helen that needs a good kick up the *** !

I can't understand why Jess will not help !

[ladybirder]

Jess won't help, well not yet anyway, because the SW's want to keep us on tenterhooks. They're keeping us dangling. Uncomfortable isn't it.

[mikey4444]

Ladybirder....we are getting used to it by now !

[Prudie]

I'm just listening to the omnibus and Pip and Toby's double entendre discussion of Tower Bridge being better raised or down was totally disgusting.. This is the Archer's for goodness sake. What filth. I'm going to complain and may withdraw my listening services.
:-)

[mikey4444]

Prudie...what larks !....I must have missed that !

[zebo]

mikey. how could you miss that, glad someone has 'raised' the issue!

[mikey4444]

What a sad little man Rob is !

"Henwe was devastated"....devastated my *** !

[ladybirder]

Oh to be a fly on the wall at the Cafcass meeting.

Question: Who would you like to live with Henry, your granny and granddad or your daddy?

Answer: My daddy says granny and granddad don't want me.

If only;-))

[jourdain2]

I agree, Prudie, we were most uncomfortable with the innuendo as well. I'll see if I can find how to complain, too.

[mikey4444]

The scales have fallen from Pips eyes it would seem....maybe Jill was right after all ! ( when is she ever wrong ? )

[LennyDipp]

A few of the continuity announcers are clearly fans of TA, for example Alan Smith and Neil Nunes. Some of their comments at 11:15/14:15/19:15 are brilliant.

Others just recite the little 'spoilers' straight from the BBC website.

[zebo]

There's one announcer, usually on at 2.15 who's so dry, he sounds West Indian, don't know his name though.
