Big Farma in Little Ambridge - come and talk The Archers talk

[PseudoBadger]

New thread for the beginning of the pheasant season.

And Jazzer must use a milk bottle!

Are you saying Jazzer has a chipolata?

The SWs definitely DO know we are listeners - do you hear the announcement that you could get involved and ask the SWs a question?
Didn't hear the whole thing though, perhaps someone could listen again and enlighten us.

Wank mitten or special sports sock for Jazzer? David and Ruth are definite penis beaker people Panzee. Shula is a "pull my nightie back down when you're done dear."
I heart having somewhere to chat Archers

This is what the Telegraph was talking about, isn't it?

Innocent Archers chit chat descends into filth... :o

I reckon Jazzer's is more of a deep fried mars bar than chipolata myself.

Yes, I heard tonight's epi and thought 'that's aimed at us struggling Mumsnetters swearing at our babies while we hurl saucepans at the radio'.

Did feel a bit public information broadcast, but actually I really like the idea that she's struggling now that Brenda's moved away.

Despite his bluster I can imagine Jazzer being very considerate. He would definitely "be there" for you

I turn my back for a couple of nights.....

I am worried about Jill
Twice on their jaunt she was a bit wobbly behind the wheel.

If they do kill Jill off properly that will be good as people seem to be written out then it mentions they are dead (will be what say to jack).

I reckon the Jill will have an accident which doesn't kill her but seriously injures or kills someone else.

Well it has been at least a week since the last coma/hospital vigil.

Hopefully Pipsqueak will pop back to be involved in that... :o

Or it will turn out that Jill needs new glasses.

Re DTD styles, I seem to recall Shula and ?Nigel??? DTD in a field in her younger days.

I agree with 'puss', all it will come too is that Jill finally needs glasses.

or maybe cataract op?

Re Jeck: he should linger on till Peggy's alter ego bows out - she lived through her partner's Alzheimer's, and gave her experience to the scriptwriters. So let her off having to act Peggy's grief, I say.

Yay, I said that Helen should confide in Tom and so far he's been a model supportive brother. If perhaps out-of-character observant... but then Kirsty has changed him a bit, Pat noticed the other day.

My take on Jill's bad driving is that it was just a bit of light comedy- saintly Jill, stalwart of the village, domestic Goddess, fun granny and Friend to Bees has a flaw- she is a crap driver. I expect she always has been.

I agree that Jill thing was comedy relief as was a flash if the old joe drinking too much cider.

Fear that Helen confiding in Tom means months of her moping. Am stunned that we have sensitive Tom when he was such a bell end and so oblivious with Brenda. Also saying sensible stuff! Maybe it is down to Kirsty.

As for Helen knowing what she got herself in for, I doubt that .

I thought the shift in Tom was that he realised something of what Helen felt, because he remembered how he himself felt when Brenda ended it. Though of course there were differences - Tom got angry about Rob being married etc but managed to hold most of it back, I thought.

Poor Darrell. He seems to have completely given up on life. I wonder if he is planning to disappear - or worse.

How OLD is Jill??

Answer here!

Same age as my DM :)

I'm just glad that Bethany doesn't appear to have the Ambridge type of Down's a Syndrome that has absolutely no effect on her development at all. Just like Abby's Ambridge prematurity, Jazzer's Ambridge brain damage, Chris and Adam's Ambridge comas, Ruth's Ambridge cancer, Helen's Ambridge eating disorder and Brian's Ambridge extra marital affairs. Oh, and Wolfgang's Ambridge TB. Which, to be fair, had a pretty drastic effect on his development, but didn't seem to be able to cross a fence.
