Yuk.

Is there not a massive age difference?

I imagine Kenton to be all Monty Don/Kevin McCloud and Jolene to be all Mrs Beeton/June Whitfield.

It's just all so wrong, like Elizabeth taking up with Jo Grundy.

Didn't brian shoot him?

Gottakeepchanging · 16/03/2011 23:21

Kenton is very unattractive in real life

Gottakeepchanging · 16/03/2011 23:25

In rl Jolene actress was born in 1955. She is leagues above the Kenton actor. He is batting above his weight.

Whatswrong Fallon's dad sounded about 80 IMO!! I do think he was supposed to have led a debauched (rock and roll) life.

Re Mike's eye - the Daily Mail TV Guide (yes,yes I know, but it's quite good) always refer to Mike as the 'One Eyed Milkman' which makes me GrinGrin

Shock @ Jolene being born in 1970! OMG she's younger than me and I thought she was supposed to be 50's-ish. How old are the Grundy's supposed to be? I always think of them as 50+ too.

About this age thing, well I was so sad and intrigued that I went on the BBC Archers website family tree and indeed Jolene's date of birth is 01 Jan 1970, but so is Kathy Perks and , wait for it ,Sid's first wife.
However Sid's daughter ( the one in NZ) was born in 1971, so sadly I think it is 'an administrative error/default setting!
Feel very Blush for being so interested!

BendyBob · 17/03/2011 14:38

Oh well in that case I'm changing mine to 1970 tooGrin

Ponders · 17/03/2011 15:09

Well Eddie Grundy is 60, it was his birthday this week (& Tony A is 60 this year & so is Mike)

yummymummy, that's wonderful information about 1970, thanks Grin

Ponders · 17/03/2011 15:11

Joe Grundy will be 90 in September Shock

farmer's lung obviously keeps you going Confused

Ponders · 17/03/2011 15:13

oh sorry, wrong about Mike, he was 61 in Dec (it was something he said when Eddie was talking about his party that made me think he'd be 60 too)

(I'm as sad as you, yummymummy!)

Ponders · 17/03/2011 15:15

Bunty Hebden gets an actual birthday (20 Feb 22) but Reg gets the 1970 one.

They must only get allocated a proper birthdate if something happens on air to pin it down

(will shut up & scuttle away now Blush)

Lilymaid · 17/03/2011 15:25

Kathy is around 58, I think. Kenton is a little younger - OP suggested 52. Jolene must be in her 50s, but probably younger than Kathy.

iwastooearlytobeayummymummy · 17/03/2011 17:16

I feel so safe here, no judgment just acceptance Grin

Gottakeepchanging · 17/03/2011 17:39

Oh so no baby.

It's all down to Vicky Tucker to produce then

GrendelsMum · 17/03/2011 18:09

I'm relieved.

The news that Jolene was just a couple of years older than me was quite horrific.

ChristinedePizan · 17/03/2011 19:15

Ouch Jamie :(

GrimmaTheNome · 17/03/2011 19:15

And on cue - Jamie erupts!

Panzee · 17/03/2011 19:16

Oh great. Jamie's on the sulk. Loud music and cries of "I hate you" are imminent.

Ponders · 17/03/2011 19:20

no driving for Elizabeth for SIX MONTHS??? what's that about?

seeker · 17/03/2011 22:42

I'm loving the "I'm no good at maths and it's your fault" line. My dd has thrown that one at me!

GrimmaTheNome · 17/03/2011 23:18

ah well, there does seem to be evidence of maths ability being heritable so at least her science seems ok.

ChristinedePizan · 18/03/2011 09:23

Is there really? Oh dear :( (((DS)))

zisforzebra · 28/03/2011 22:10

I missed the very end of tonight's episode, did Jolene tell Kenton she loved him? I just heard her say something as I was on my way out of the kitchen and didn't quite catch it.

ChristinedePizan · 28/03/2011 22:42

No she didn't but she did tell him she was ready to shag (well I'm assuming that's what they meant by talking about 'moving the relationship on'). Please god don't let us have to listen to the post-coital conversation

iwastooearlytobeayummymummy · 28/03/2011 23:55

can't wait for coitus at 7pm Hmm
anyone else recall the excrutiating conversation Kenton had with Nigel about his fling last year and the 'things she did' eughh
