The Archers - Julia's died?

[TinyGang]

I always seem to be starting Archers threads...

Have I got this right? Julia has died suddenly it seems and in rl too. I can't seem to link to the Archers home page, but there's something on there about it.

Awful stuff TinyGang. Mary Wimbush (81) died at the studios after completing her day's Archers recordings a couple of weeks ago.
I must admit I remember her as Prudie in Poldark and loved her work. She had quite a Bohemian streak in her

Yes, the actress died v suddenly. Haven't had time to listen since - how has Julia died in the Archers? So sad, so soon after her wedding.

her son owns our village pub

having a 'memorial night' in a few weeks

Lost touch with Archers in the past few years - is she Nigel's mother?

Marina, Julia was Prudie? I had no idea...must dig out my Poldark vids.

I was in tears listening to Nigel at lunch time

Have we found out yet the results of the DNA test to see whoo George's dad is?

She will be missed, a great character and a great actress.

I still miss Nelson, such a lovable rogue

Archers homepage tributes

No news on the blood tests yet, Bahb - just realised I've absolutely no idea how long they take IRL!

I'll have to set a reminder to listen to Archers on Sunday and catch up. Poor Nigel.

Good on the Archers to react so quickly and sensitively to the death of Mary Wimbush. I love the way it's kept me gripped for at least the last fifteen years. Can't wait for the denoument of the Will/Ed/George saga.

I usd to love The Archers but got out of the habit of listening.

Broke my heart when John Archer died.

Must start again

Who is George?

George is Emma Carter's son, possibly by Ed Grundy , possibly by William Grundy (who she married and has now left cos she lurves Ed)

My money is on William really being the father after all

Yes, I reckon Will is the Dad too. Don't often get to listen to it these days but I am sad enough that I get a synopsis emailed to me every day - signed up for it on the beeb website. The tributes to Mary Wimbush are lovely. Poor Lewis

yeah I bet deffo will is the father

I LOVE the archers

What do you think will happen then, Enid?

Will Emmur (sic) and Ed stay together? Or will Ed leg it to Oz?

They will both dump her and she and George will have to move back home with Radio Carter and Old Misery?

Thought for a horrible minute you meant Eddie Grundy then remembered he had a son named after him.

I must catch up!

Just listening to the omnibus edition - poor poor Nigel - he's such a lovely character. Also, what was Linda's "big disappointment, think I have missed this.

The Cat and Fiddle - she was hoping to do a heritage restoration thing but nasty Matt Crawford's nasty mate is going to turn it into flats.

Janh - yes Mary Wimbush (julia) was Prudie in Poldark. I didn't realise it was MW who played Julia and was astonished to realise they were on and the same woman when she died (to me, MW means Prudie and the odd one off role in TV dramas) but if you listen carefully to her voice, you can detect Prudie in it - I know that sounds daft!

Kate was always a manipulative, devious little baggage - remember how she tried to convince everybody Roy was OK for her to take Phoebe back with her last time she came?

She is her parents' daughter....
