New Archers storyline -Vicky?

Does anyone else think the SW have got something up their sleeve for Vicky? Twice now she's mentioned how tired she is and last night she didn't make the committee meeting as she fell asleep.

Yes and she had an unusual moment of self knowledge too didn't she?

EverybodysDoeEyed · 27/07/2012 16:46

It's just all a bit contrived. We need to bring Kate back. Something needs to happen to Lucas for that to happen. Oh I know, they are in sa where all the taxi drivers are crazy (remember the horrible murder in cape town) so lets bump him off that way.

Anyway, after her experience I'm not sure how a vicky pregnancy would play out. It's just like they've thought of too many exciting plots and can't decide which one to use so have used them all at the same time. I'm just finding it a bit much!!

I need a good storyline about milk prices!

EverybodysDoeEyed · 27/07/2012 17:09

Of course it could be a menopause storyline and phoebes was just watching a scary art house project with lucas

she is, isn't she????

Shock
EverybodysDoeEyed · 27/07/2012 19:17

Well on the plus side, at least it sounds like Lucas made it!!

ppeatfruit · 28/07/2012 09:22

I'm waiting till the omnibus for her heart to heart with Linda DON"T TELL ME!!!!!! Unless nothing was concluded last night them S.W.s want shooting !!A thought; Vicky does'nt have any closer friends at work or wherever to have a heart to heart with???

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 29/07/2012 10:40

May I just interject?
Ok
Is that a new Joelene?

DowagersHump · 29/07/2012 11:07

I wondered that too MrsDV.

Brenda is being weirdly nice about the pg. I'm quite pleased - I've quite warmed to Vicky of late Blush

Panzee · 29/07/2012 11:10

A fairly obvious route, but I called it ages ago!

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 29/07/2012 11:49

Just caught up with both.
Awwww bless her I hope they allow her to have a nice pg and a lovely baby.
I never liked Kate. She has got away with being a self centred cow all her life with only the ocassional 'oh daaaaaarling' by way of remonstration.
All that toss about always thinking about everyone else Hmm

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 29/07/2012 11:50

I love vicky. She has a good heart and probably looks a bit like me Grin

ppeatfruit · 29/07/2012 14:33

yes I like Vicky too even with her £500 cradle Grin

ppeatfruit · 29/07/2012 14:34

What's the betting she'll have the baby?

ciderpenguin · 29/07/2012 22:11

Surely she'll have the baby - has TA done abortion before. Can't imagine Mike suggesting anything she doesn't want to do.

All we need now is for Brenda to be up the duff at the same time!

Ponders · 29/07/2012 22:14

I have a nasty feeling that Mike will be pleased (after the initial shock) & they will get excited & then she'll have a m/c Sad

hope I'm wrong though!

Ponders · 29/07/2012 22:16

cider, they did do abortion once, when Elizabeth was pregnant by that cad who buggered off out of the gents' window

(that was when Shula was ttc & she offered to adopt the baby but E just went off & did it. was very fraught)

UnexpectedItemInShaggingArea · 29/07/2012 22:30

And again 2 years ago when Greg's daughter turned up from France and was seduced by Helen's love rat boyfriend.

Ponders · 29/07/2012 22:38

oh yes! I had forgotten all about that!

too many love rats in TA to be feasible really Grin

Ponders · 29/07/2012 22:44

\link{http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/tvandradioblog/2010/feb/10/the-archers-radio-4-ambridge\Nancy Banks-Smith on Leon}

& with a ref at the bottom to dear old Jude - is he the most recent love rat? Apart from Kate's shag on Amex?

I get confused easily Confused

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 29/07/2012 22:47

Whenever abortion looms in the Archers there is always a deranged female desperate to take the baby and raise it as her own.

The Archers script writers do like a woman deranged by broodiness Hmm

DowagersHump · 29/07/2012 22:56

Have we had a miscarriage in Ambridge yet?

ppeatfruit · 30/07/2012 10:45

That's a funny article ponders I like NBS. If my, not that extraordinary, life is anything to go by there aren't ENOUGH love rats in TA Grin

Ponders · 30/07/2012 11:24

I adore NBS, pp Smile

A month in Ambridge seems to be all she does these days, & that not all the time - she is quite old now, it's a shame, she is one of those people who should be allowed to live forever

ivykaty44 · 30/07/2012 11:25

Phoebe is returning

Ponders · 30/07/2012 11:25

'makes her father shout "Pip! Pip!" like a Borsetshire Bertie Wooster'

that made me cackle Grin
