Indeed, 10 points to R4 and a couple more for knowing the difference between CO2 and CO <chemistry pedant, but its important>

Oh yeah wot evah

Carbon monoxide smartarse chemist type

Annnny hooo
Didn't someone offer to put a boiler in for the Horribin's wife? I heard it on trailer. Now that has to be a set up for a CO story doesn't it?

Are the Horrobins becoming like the Star Trek 'red-shirted guy you've never seen before in the landing party' - a supply of people who can be killed off or sent to jail whenever the plot demands it?

Oh, sorry, MrsDeVere. I am feeling very confused here. You wrote something and then Grimma mentioned carbon dioxide and my mind jumped to carbon monoxide.
Except, on re-reading, I realise that you were going on about gas poisoning all along.<thunk> I read something about a "co2 story" and thought it was some new-fangled meedja term for a story that crosses over from the offshoot soap (the co-soap, or soap2). Likewise, a "boiler trailer" is, um, a trailer about upcoming bunny-boilerishness? I don't know! It made sense this morning. <goes for a lie-down>

Whilst I'm at it: who is Jennifer Canesten? do I really want to know this?

So what do I mean then?
The one where boilers poison people? Is that monoxide or dioxide?

I am feeling pretty myself now

Carbon monoxde is the bad / boiler one.
Carbon dioxide is OK: it's what we produce by respiration, and the plants take in for photosynthesis.

<showing off now>

I love the phrase 'boiler trailer' for a trailer about someone getting bunny-boilerish.

Lets hope for many, many boiler trailers over Christmas and New Year.

>Carbon dioxide is OK
(unless there's waaay too much like in Apollo 13 but that's probably beyond The Archer's range )

I think if I have to listen to Lillian and Paul any more I'm going to need to buy more buckets. Please someone make it stop...

Its Matt being nice and considerate which is making me feel uneasy.

Lillian nearly got caught - lucky for her Vicki is baby-brained at the moment...reckon Matt will discover the receipt for the cufflinks on xmas day?

Lillian and Paul - blecccchh!

Am absolutely certain Paul would be a feathery-stroker.

Tiger is much more ... tigerish

My ears are exploding from hearing the BBC philharmonic play the theme tune. Deeply wrong.

Maybe they will kill off half the cast in a carbon dioxide tragedy like the one in Cameroon in the eighties? Although, that involved a volcano, maybe a bit far fetched to have a hidden Volcano under the Am?

well according to the bit at the end of PM this evening they're all going to be vapourised tomorrow - but only if the world ends, nothing short of that will cause the demise of The Archers.

Anyone else think Paul might turn out to be married?

Mummytime - I thought there was a lot of algae also involved?

I have to say, listening yesterday I decided that it's not so bad being with a convicted fraudster who's obsessed with whisking you to New York and buying you new coats.
