New Archers Thread

[mikey4444]

Sometimes, Susan and Neil have me in stitches !

"Sack, back and .... ? "

If you think I'm having anything done down there, you can think again ! "

[zebo]

They always seem a very strange couple, she's so wisteria, ie a persistant climber, and he is so down to earth.

[mikey4444]

His love for Susan blinds him to her obvious faults methinks !

" Oh Neil ! "

[Hopkirk]

On a different topic, I think I may have missed an episode.
I thought Elizabeth was linking up with Doctor Richard, but that he has disappeared. What happened?

[mikey4444]

A woman's love can be a fickle thing Hoppy !

[zebo]

What happened to the Maths tutor with whom she seemed to be getting close? He looks to be reappearing.

[melv16]

Ot seems he'll do owt for a taste of Susan's chilli ;-)

[zebo]

I'll never be able to eat avocado again.

How Rev. Alan Franks kept his temper tonight, is beyond me !

[hellywelly4]

I have difficulty in remembering it is all made up, it's so well done. Poor Alan, rebuffed at every turn.
Zebo- the maths teacher (was he the cricketer, Asian I think) did go round for dinner, but Elizabeth realised she wasn't ready for a relationship. That was before her fling with Roy.
I get very irritated when Susan is on. She really winds me up. Obviously playing her part well. Just as Rob does.

While I am a huge fan of The Archers, sometimes the scriptwriters get it so wrong.

Justin is a hard-nosed businessman, and I just can't see why he should offer Rob such a high-profile job as he has. The man is poison. It just doesn't ring true at all !

And just why did he get served in the Pub tonight....I thought he was banned ?

[hellywelly4]

I don't think he has been banned from the Bull, he's been in several times since the trial, and Kenton and Jolene need the trade. I agree totally about Justin. Also how can Rob go out on his first day at work? Hasn't he got to find his way round the office first. I also felt that Adam was too subservient to him. I wonder whether the scriptwriters have changed since the trial. I'm not enjoying the episodes much just lately.

[bookbinder]

Not only has Rob gone out on his first day at the office,
he's going out on a shoot in a few days. More time away from
the office, but this time he'll have a gun in his hands!

[zebo]

Is this the shoot for which Jennifer does the lunches? I'd be careful what I ate if I were Rob!

[mikey4444]

I have just listened to last nights episode, and how Shula didn't bring down the riding crop on Rob's head is beyond me !

And if he thinks Brian is a soft touch, he's got another think coming.

Can't the scriptwriters have a nice fatal farming accident ? I want my old Archers back now please !

[jourdain2]

The way Rob keeps hanging around (auditions for panto) makes me yearn for someone to arrange a nice, old-fashioned farming accident, mikey!

[frugalfred]

There's too much mileage left in the Rob saga. Jack/Gideon name change; divorce, maintenance & access; Rob finding new accommodation..... etc. Can't see it all being satisfactorily resolved soon. I switch on every evening hoping that tonight's episode will be the one with Rob's comeuppance.

[mikey4444]

I see that Rob is trying to bury himself into Ambridge life like a particularly nasty cattle tick ! If Lillian rents her house to him, I shall never speak to her again !

[hellywelly4]

I don't see how she can refuse him, Mikey. He knows that he is the first one to apply for it - Lilian said it had only been on the web site for 15 minutes. How can she say no?

[mikey4444]

I'm not sure of the legal line here, but I am sure that there must be a way !
