...but does anyone else think that Amy's bloke is probably married?

GrimmatheNome: on the incest front, Kenton and Debbie had a short fling a long time ago, and their parents are cousins.

I'm thinking they might be planning to set Usha up with the gorgeous Ifty...did you hear Rhys rhapsodising earlier?

GrimmaTheNome · 10/05/2012 21:20

Gosh, I missed that one (maybe it was when I lived in the US for two years).

No, surely they wouldn't pair off the 'multicultural' characters? (I'm assuming Ifty is an overdue token Muslim)

ppeatfruit · 11/05/2012 08:23

Yes i missed that one too choccy! Well it seems they're setting up Ifti with any one of the married ,unmarried, straight,gay etc. characters; the sexy bxxxers;Grin where are J'lene and daughter? That'd be fun Usha and Ifti (do you think it's spelt with an i or a y?).

choccyp1g · 11/05/2012 21:31

Actually Debbie and Kenton's parents aren't cousins, Kenton's cousin Jennifer is Debbies mother. [saddo emoticon]

Usha is going to have to move out isn't she?

Isn't Peggy Phil's sister?

GrimmaTheNome · 11/05/2012 21:53

yes, think that's right. Anyone got a link to a family tree? (with extra connections for who's shagged who)

seeker · 11/05/2012 21:56

Hand on- Kenton is jill's son. Jill was Phil's wife. What relation was Phil to Peggy?

Isn't Jennifer Kenton's aunt? Which makes Debbie and Kento first cousins.

OliviaLMumsnet · 11/05/2012 22:01

Family tree

Bramshott · 11/05/2012 22:16

Peggy is/was Phil's SIL I think - wasn't her first husband Jack Phil's brother?

ObviouslyOblivious · 11/05/2012 22:19

Sorry I read it wrong. Jack was Phil's brother, yes.

ragged · 11/05/2012 22:20

My dad's little sister once got off with his little brother.

Both of them half siblings to my dad so not in the least related to each other, thankfully. Still, ought to be an Archer's romance.

Northernlurker · 11/05/2012 22:30

Here's a really ancient bit of Archers history:
Phil's first wife Grace (No Grace don't go in to the burning stable to save Midnight'.......crashing sounds 'GRACEEEEEEEEEEE!') had a half brother Robin who Elizabeth had a fling with. Jill could not bring herself to meet him according to my Archers book. That's right she couldn't bring herself to meet the half brother of her husband's dead wife who had been dead for 30 years at that point.......Hmm

ragged · 11/05/2012 22:34

DH's step-dad refused to leave his bedroom when MIL's ex-SIL came to visit. No history between them, he just wouldn't countenance even a chit-chat relationship.

ppeatfruit · 12/05/2012 09:25

Hey what if both Amy AND Usha go for Ifty???ShockGrin he's probably married!!! another Shock

seeker · 12/05/2012 09:47

Adam's heqd injury is going to turn straight. Ifty is going to move in with Ian. Alan is going to kill Carl. Usha will defend him and get him off, but will find true love with Adam. Alan will then become a hermit.

Who does that leave spare.... oh yes, Amy. She is going to have a fling with Kenton- the Jolene thing was never going to last. Then Rochelle will move in on Brian, who has been monogamous for longer than is feasible with his track record.

ppeatfruit · 12/05/2012 09:57

Grin Annabel will move in with Jenny who has turned gay after leaving Brian.

bea · 13/05/2012 19:05

eww!! the pandering and fake cheeriness from alan to amy is soooo nauseating! get a grip!

poor old usha!... i think Mabel needs to come and visit and give everyone a big shake! a few home truths are in order methinks!!!

argh!!!

GrimmaTheNome · 13/05/2012 19:17

Oh, poor old Fly.

NigellaTufnel · 13/05/2012 19:31

Why can't Usha just point out the obvious, as in: "you were fecking stupid Amy, we've all had our hearts broken and it's not my fault that you shagged a married man. And Alan, you need to man up, and stop behaving like a teenager. No one has died. Your daughter has been dumped, do you want to lose your wife over it?"

Lilymaid · 13/05/2012 19:37

I suspect that Usha will be leaving the vicarage soon. She appears to be the third person in her marriage.
