Clearly DS' baths have meant I've missed more than I realised. Last time I heard from these 2 they were at it like rabbits every time I turned the radio on. Now she's moving to Canada? How did that happen?

Abra1d There are some very literary posters on here, how many novels have you written? (impressed Grin)

Abra1d · 11/03/2013 15:19

Five now. But there many other authors on MN who are far more prestigious, better-selling, etc. MN=dangerous temptation away from work! But useful for researching motivation, insights, etc. Seeing how people respond to Archers' plot twists can also be classed as useful research into what works and what doesn't. I tell myself. Grin

we knew she was pregnant by John not long after he died

did we? coo. I was listening at the time & didn't remember that when Rich turned up (& neither did the SWs or most Mustardlanders Grin)

RussiansOnTheSpree · 11/03/2013 15:32

She tried to tell Pat (repeatedly) - but Pat kept cutting her off. It was pretty obvious seed planting.

RussiansOnTheSpree · 11/03/2013 15:35

If you can access googlegroups (if they still exist) have a look back at uk media radio archers from 1998. Grin It was very anvilicious (anvilicious - pertaining to anvils. Dropping on heads. Clunkily)

I used to love umra. It was a very civilised newsgroup (many media/TV/fannish newsgroups were vile. Rec Arts Doctor Who for example. That was a bear pit.)

Ponders · 11/03/2013 15:46

I think we must all have been too absorbed in hating Sharon for (indirectly) killing John to actually listen to the hints

RocknRollNerd · 11/03/2013 16:10

Pat is related to my SIL no less!

Any chance of an Ambridge webchat then Olivia? please pretty please? We promise we'll differentiate the hatred for the characters from the actors Grin

ppeatfruit · 11/03/2013 16:14

Many congratulations Abra1d Dsis would love to publish (she writes but can't get an agent). Yes it must be tempting to come on MN when you're having a fallow time or whatever Grin

RussiansOnTheSpree · 11/03/2013 16:17

There Is No Cast. Angry

OldBeanbagz · 11/03/2013 16:39

Cast is listed for Thursday's episode!

RussiansOnTheSpree · 11/03/2013 17:12

There Is No Cast.

Am I really the only person here who remembers the Archers Anarchists? :( I feel well old now.

Ponders · 11/03/2013 17:18

nope, I do too, Russians - I still have some of the mags. vvv funny

Abra1d · 11/03/2013 17:38

Thanks, ppeatfruit

OldBeanbagz · 11/03/2013 17:52

It was there earlier, i promise. Maybe they listed last week by mistake and then took it down again.

Will just have to wait patiently i suppose.

Theas18 · 11/03/2013 18:25

Does anyone elder think this fergie Ed and jazzer are doing up will upset.past and Tony?

I had this brilliant convoluted plot drafted that it would actually be THE fergie that did for john but it can't be can it.....

Ponders · 11/03/2013 18:27

it could be - no specific reason why not

I think Tony had done theirs up before it did the deed, but that was what - 16 years ago? If it hasn't been maintained it could need doing up again.

Abra1d · 11/03/2013 18:47

Oh Theas! Good point. Oh that would be terrible.

seeker · 11/03/2013 19:21

Of course it is! That's brilliant!

Even better than Evil Ifty. But that's true too.....

GrendelsMum · 11/03/2013 20:39

That would be amazing! I so hope it will turn out to be the same tractor.

JollyGolightly · 11/03/2013 20:47

It had crossed my mind, too. Must be a reason for that plotline clunking along in such a resolute manner.

Ambridge · 11/03/2013 21:49

I thought that too, Theas!

Btw am watching Broadchurch and I'm sure I just heard Brenda's voice advertising L'Oreal hair colour....

NetworkGuy · 11/03/2013 22:01

I just got the impression it was unrelated to the accident, and simply a means of funding for the course (and giving Ed concerns about how the seller should have a larger sum, given the level of profit they made/stood to make).

R4 · 11/03/2013 22:48

I don't understand the tractor storyline. They seem to have increased its value by thousands and thousands of pounds by slapping on a lick of paint.Confused I was all set for at least six months' worth of James-May-style stripping down, re-building and general fettling.

seeker · 11/03/2013 22:52

They have defrauded an old lady. And Ed is suffering pangs. Not Jazzer though. He doesn't do pangs!

heronsfly · 12/03/2013 08:22

Hi,did Chris miraculously wake up at the sound of Alices voice,or is he deaded ?,
(fell asleep before listening to podcast, and am sad person that needs to know) Grin
