is Tony next in line for disaster?

[blackeyedsusan]

there have been a few mentions of tony being tired etc recently. anyone else have fears for his future health?

Id be tired if I had to live with Helen! HAdnt noticed, but will listen out, maybe they kill him off and JAAAAAAAHns son comes in to take over the farm!!

I thought this on the day of Pat's party. Talk of 'feeling weary'. To be fair, I can't stand Tony, Pat or their horrible children, so wouldn't be too upset.

It's probably a red herring. They do that sometimes. What we all should have noticed will be a small but significant remark that indicates total armageddon - like Clarrie being off colour. Did anybody think 'ah e-coli' then? I certainly didn't.

Mind you nigel falling off the roof had HUGE signposts pointing the way.

Yes like ' Oh David I so love Izzie, this roof is fantastic, my father showed me every inch as a child, i cant wait to show freddie etc, etc, it was the longest death scene ever. Still wish they hadnt killed him off though, Lizzie would have been much less missed.

They led up to it for weeks.

'oooh nigel is that banner a good idea'

'ooo nigel lets have an idyllic party here on 2nd Jan with all the cast family''

'oooh nigel you were marvellous in the pantomime and you've given me a lovely brooch. lets have lots of blissfully happy married sex' (may have made up the last bit)

'oooh nigel don't go on the roof it's so icy and windy you'd be bound to fally off and dash out your brains on your own ancient paving'

I agree - Lizzie makes my teeth itch.

I thought exactly the same about Tony, when they said he was weary... nothing is ever said for no reason on any soap in my experience.

I thought the same about Tony, and he asked Tom if he could do the milking for him,( Tom obviously had better things to do as usual )
I wonder if this will lead up to a near death bed reunion with John Rich.

Yup Tony will drop dead, pat'll top her self. The whole show will be taken over by Tom and hellqueen with cooking by Brenda and I really will stop listening!!

I thought this too. Am a bit behind (new years resolution to start listening again) can anyone update me on Brenda and Lillian - are they starting a business together? Any other major need to knows? Havent listened for ages but you can pick it all up again pretty fast!!

I wish Brookfield would sort out their slurry worry. Listening to it night after night with associated whining from Pip and Josh is starting to grate.

Tony must be going. One of the paper-thin plot lines that they love to sprinkle around.

Semi hijack but related to Tony's renovations! Why can't Gary help? Lots of mentions of how useless he is, but is there something more? Agree Tony is tired.

It's Neil (married to Susan, father of Emma and Chris) who is renovating his father in laws house so he can get his sister in law moved in and out of his house. Gary (Susan's brother) is not helping because with the exception of Susan all the Horrobins are work shy, useless or criminal - or all three. Even Susan's done time......

Sorry got my Tony and Neil mixed up there. The moaning from Tony would mean it would never get done.

Yeah Northern and Gary is so useless he left his niece and nephew waiting at school while boozing (mind you if I was Traceeeey i wouldn' have let my crap bother any where nr my L.Os would you ?)

I reckon tony is a red herring IMO Brian's heading for a heart attack in the middle of his factory dairy serve him right DOWN WITH FACTORY FARMING !!!!

Maybe Brian will disinherit the traitorous Adam before his demise - leaving Jenny torn between her adored son and adored daughter and her adored child of husband's lover - oh yes and the other daughters too......

There's a definite tearing sound between Adam and Debbie anyway isn't there? I can't remember if Debbie's actually Brian's or not, I know Adam isn't.

Neither Debbie nor Adam are Brian's children - Adam was the product of a fling with a farm worker I think, and Debbie is the child of Jennifer's ghastly first husband.

Brian adopted Debbie and she uses his name and calls him Dad. Adam uses his step-father's name (or part of it) and calls Brian 'Brian' If you pushed him I expect he would say he regards Debbie as his child and Adam as his step-son. Brian had a big thing about having a boy and whilst of course he loves Kate and Alice, Alice's sex in particular was a disappointment. This made it all the more bitter for Jennifer that Siobhan produced a son.

OOh thanks Dilys and northern I knew about Ruarhii (sp)?! but that's very interesting about the differences in the relationships of Brian to Debbie and Adam a recipe for trouble IMO.

oh why is Pip such a whinger? Yep I reacon Tony will drop dead any time now, as was mentioned previously the time is ripe with the phones out....
