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

The problem with AE was that for me it's enough to be listening to TA without having to remember about AE being on and turn over to that as well. I do speak as one living in Fr. for 50% of the time so listening on line (all radios on line and every time there's a power cut we have to re programme them one is easy and one isn't) Grin.

But artex is anyone really upfront in RL without getting pissed first? GrinThe fallout is always a pain (with a SD you'd probably be treading on eggshells wouldn't you)? Well I would if I wanted to keep my DH.

We have trouble with our extremely bad tempered ex DIL (who we have to keep sweet otherwise we'd loose contact with our GD).

Think there is going to be at least one more set of AExtra Olivia.

I went to a talk given by one of leading script writers a while ago and she asked the audience of about 50+ people who listened to it - I was the only one to stick my hand up and many people had no idea what she was even talking about.....

Admittedly the average age of the audience was probably in their 60s, but still.... Doesn't really bode well for it's long term prospects

Envy oooh I would love to go to an Archers scriptwriter lecture
Gutted that no one else is listening cept little me.

Greenshadow · 14/05/2012 22:55

She was very interesting, but needless to say, didn't give away any spoilers.

Fascinating to hear how they write the episodes - one writer does a week, then someone else takes over, but they are all writing their weeks at the same time, so how it manages to join together so seamlessly I don't know.

Archers Extras - Just found this on the Archers Addicts website.

'The new series of Ambridge Extra is scheduled for transmission on 3rd July at 2.15pm. It can be heard twice weekly for ten weeks, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, on Radio 4 Extra'

Great spot Greenshadow, thanks.

OliviaLMumsnet · 21/05/2012 21:51

argh!
Artistic license and all that but why tf can't David 1471 like a normal person?!?!!

ObviouslyOblivious · 22/05/2012 08:06

Ha! I'm waiting for him to tell the ruffians that they can have any one of the family they want :o

OliviaLMumsnet · 30/05/2012 16:23

Hello Can someone please tell me what happened to Robert Snell's DD? Who was dating James and they broke up?

OliviaLMumsnet · 31/05/2012 12:09

BUMP Leonie I couldn't remember her name.
Please someone.
It's bugging me.

ppeatfruit · 31/05/2012 12:43

Well olivia Linda (in an untypicallly diplomatic fashion) persuaded Leonie to return to London and her job, with Robert,who had hired a van to help her collect her things from James's, then she moved in with her friend while waiting for her flat to become free.

ObviouslyOblivious · 31/05/2012 12:45

I couldn't remember either, whether she was still at Lynda's.
I found on the net that she's moved in with her mate Maxie in London. Her stuff is stored at Ambridge Hall.

OliviaLMumsnet · 31/05/2012 13:51

THANK ppeat
That was very diplomatic of Linda
Obviously I am always afraid of googling in case I find spoilers

ppeatfruit · 31/05/2012 18:00

You're very welcome Olivia Smile. BTW It's not just you who's hooked on TA it's the only soap I can bear now.

Anyone else think one of the burglars/NPOW is the brother Horrobin who's just turned up 'cos Dave wouldn't have known him would he?

ObviouslyOblivious · 31/05/2012 19:03

I'm definitely suspicious of him for something ppeat. The way they inserted Adam telling Ian about him too.

ObviouslyOblivious · 31/05/2012 19:03

Pretty certain David would know him though.
