Is the Archers on the telly now?

I'm unable to help as I don't understand anything that's happening in the Archers at the moment. Could be pregnabrain, but I used to be able to dip in and out and still know roughly what was happening.

Up until recently i would have voted for Brian...

I second William, closely followed by Emma's horrible father, Neil.

Well, I hate Peggy. I can't stand her. I know she's a saint for looking after Jack blah, blah, but - ugh.

oooh decisions decisions.

Peggy - quite possibly. William - probably.

Susan would also be a contender.

Hm tricky, because they all seem to get a turn at this regularly.

I have come to the conclusion that they ALL annoy me no end, but yes Will is centre stage atm. Even when he was being wronged by Emmerrr and Ed, I still preferred Ed.

'Queen of Smug' crown is always changing heads between Caroline, Shula and Elizabeth. And lord when Caroline and Shula get together for one of their little 'chats'...smug central!

Love it though and usually listen

Susan Carter, by a mile. With Peggy bringing up the rear and Tony close behind her.

I feel a bit sorry for Willyum.

Shula - bleurgh. I long and long for Alistair to go off the rails again and turn the stables into a gambling den with pole dancing and the grundy's home brew.

I feel sorry for Willyum too. Apart from the voice, which is shocking. He's had a tough time...

I don't think Brian is disagreeable and mean spirited, though, is he? He's outrageous, sexist, emotionally stunted and generally evil but not disagreeable and mean spirited.

AMAZED at these saints in human form who can find it in their hearts to be sorry for William!

And Farkin Willyum.
And Farkin Brian.
And Farkin ,oh, what's he called, the gay one with the nice Irish husband. Adam. Farkin Adam.
Farkin Clarrie.
And I can't abide Usha. Or Shula.
And I really wanted a frickin asteroid to hit that weird 80th birthday dinner without inlaws thing.
