Why is Lillian allowing this to happen?

FFS Lil, he's just a bit on the side. If he pisses you off just bin him. Don't start sounding so downtrodden.

She is painful - also was the storyline when she became a mother true to life or simplistic ? As seemed a bit too quick once she decided she wanted to be a mum when that girl who was staying with her (was it gregs daughter) didn't keep her baby.

Gigondas - I don't think ppeafruit was talking about a character when she wrote:
Well IMO if someone wants a babee so much that they're quite happy to have one with out thinking how the CHILD will feel when he understands that he can't know his father till he's 18 or 16 whatever. Then IMO that is pure selfishness.

but I love this thread a lot so I'd prefer it if I'd got the wrong end of the stick.

Gigondas · 25/07/2013 20:54

Ok can't speak for ppeat but my comment was purely about hellin not generally.

Wouldn't want to offend a fellow fan . Thanks

Oh and cathy worse than hellin IMO but pip the worst?

Kiriwawa · 25/07/2013 20:55

And yes, it was very badly done. I can't tell you how my heart sank when they decided that was going to be something her character did. Because I think it's entirely out of character - she's so needy, she's very conservative, she's really selfish.

Does she have any redeeming characteristics? I can't actually think of any

Gigondas · 25/07/2013 20:56

That is what I thought. It just seemed so contrived.

Cant think of any good things - best of those siblings died under a tractor.

Kiriwawa · 25/07/2013 20:56

G - your post wasn't remotely offensive :)

Gigondas · 25/07/2013 20:59

Phew. I am far too obsessed with archers ATM to miss the chat.

PseudoBadger · 25/07/2013 21:06

Panzee I'm referring to www.paranormal.org.uk/mustardland/

The accepted view is that the SWs love Helen so much that what she wants, she gets. Everyone else must enable this and must think happy thoughts a la Anthony Freemont in It's a Good Life :o

So she jumped the AI queue. Jumped the queue to get the flat above the shop. Etc 'twas ever thus.....

Pseudo, this thread is rapidly approaching 1.000 posts, well done Flowers.
I have never been actively involved in a thread this long before, do they go 'poof' and disappear when they reach the magic number Grin

PseudoBadger · 25/07/2013 22:14

I'm very proud. No it simply gets full and we spend the last few posts deciding on a good name for the next thread!

Thanks PseudoBadger :)

Let's commemorate her with the next thread !!!! MOOOOOGrin

ppeatfruit · 26/07/2013 08:54

kiriwawa I did write IMO and everyone's entitled to their opinion I hope? In TA and RL.

Kiriwawa · 26/07/2013 09:12

Yes of course you're entitled to your opinion ppfruit. I just think it's rather narrow minded and bigoted of you.

ppeatfruit · 26/07/2013 10:45

Call me names if you like (though it's against MN policy IIRC) Iam purely thinking about the child's view of the situation they don't stay little babeees for long they are people FFS with feelings and opinions of their own . (IIWM I'd want to know my 2 parents from the start) If that's narrow minded well so be it

Kiriwawa · 26/07/2013 11:32

I don't think I was calling you names. Anyway let's draw a line under it now though as I'm sure it's not very interesting for everyone else on the thread.

I've just read the start of the thread - blimey, how things have changed since April when Paul started being psycho. And what did happen to thingy who's married to the bloke from Queen who played his ex wife? Has that storyline just died a death now Matt's ditched Lil?

ppeatfruit · 26/07/2013 11:40

Oh yes she played Ange wife of Dirty Den from EE; someone said that she was booked for 6 episodes i may be wrong but it didn't seem as if she was in that many.

I reckon he'll be back with his tail between his legs in deep doo doos with Lil.

Kiriwawa · 26/07/2013 11:57

Another lame storyline that didn't go anywhere - no surprises there then!

Yep, pretty sure Matt will come crawling back having lost thousands on some pie in the sky scheme.

Gigondas · 26/07/2013 12:16

I think he will too. Lilian fretting about cutting him off seems to indicate more ambridge amnesia about all the sl about her affair, their split etc Hmm.

Also I really hope we don't have too much wedding/bridesmaidzilla sl as its bad enough with threads on here let alone in ambridge.

Somethingyesterday · 26/07/2013 12:29

He won't have lost the money.... I imagine it is all under control and will be returned to him.

(Un)fortunately - depending on your POV - Amex stories never have a direct effect on TA, it's always "as you were" when characters return. So it's also likely that Brenda won't be able to retain her holiday souvenir.

ppeatfruit · 26/07/2013 12:48

Her 'holiday souvenir" something Grin might there a little Dimitri in 9 months? Grin

I got very fed up with them all speaking Russian WTF is that about ? Grin

Somethingyesterday · 26/07/2013 13:45

Smile I only thought of that after I had posted! It would be rather fun though.

ppeatfruit · 26/07/2013 15:05

Yes I'm glad I' m not the only one with a one track mind Grin don't remember her buying anything!

What d'you reckon on my theory that Dimitri and Tatiana are Undercover police using the unwitting Matt to 'catch' Vitaly?
