Archers spoilers

[BoreOfWhabylon]

OK, this was posted on another site on January 1st 2014

'Based upon a letter in the DM from a reader who alleged they had overheard "an obnoxiously loud member of TA production team" in a Birmingham restaurant. Believe it at your peril.

Rob is revealed to be homophobic.
Jill will move into Brookfield.
The Grundy's to move back to Grange Farm.
Tom will take over the running of Bridge Farm after Tony has an accident.
Lower Loxley may burn down, but that has yet to be decided upon.
Lynda is to stage Blithe Spirit next Christmas.

Or not, as the case may be...'

How much more will come to pass, I wonder?

So what's the party Roy is planning? Phoebe's end of exam bash?

Phoebe is 18 on 28th June. This coincides with my birthday one of our family birthdays so I never forget it.

Aaaah! That should be fun. Surely Hayley will have to be there. And is Phoebe really going to have the party at her old home rather than Home Farm?

I'm feeling quite proud of myself for that prediction about Kate stopping the university course, even if she didn't quite get chucked out. Mind you, if she hadn't packed it in voluntarily I suspect they would have booted her anyway.

And more spoilers!

All my hopes about a mega big event on 23 June, based on absence of a teaser for that day, utterly unfounded - must just have been a glitch. Teaser has now appeared and was 23 June. Rex is ready to give up, and Pip will not let David down.

New spoilers:
5 July. Phoebe has no time for Kate, and David gets goosed.
6 July. Helen and Tom have big ideas, and Adam will not compromise.
7 July. Shula plays peacemaker, and Kate shares something personal.
8 July. Jennifer offers some womanly wisdom, and Charlie's left high and dry.
9 July. Ruth and David consider the future, and Toby has his eyes on the prize.
10 July. Ruth feels torn, and there is no going back for Adam.

Interesting ...

Will Adam be packing his bags?

I do hope not!

Next instalment:

12 July. There's a tense cricket match in Ambridge, and Adam loses patience.
13 July. Elizabeth remembers, and Ruth is torn.
14 July. Debbie is stuck in the middle, and Kate is not the mother Phoebe wants.
15 July. Kate gets it wrong, and Roy gets it right.
16 July. Debbie makes up her mind, and Ruth gets wound up.
17 July. There is a party at Home Farm, and Debbie realises what she has been missing.

Cannot wait for Debbie to come back!

What is Elizabeth remembering? Was that Nigel's birthday or something?

Yay for Roy getting something right! Even though he was a total arsehole about the whole Elizabeth thing, I find Kate's sanctimoniousness about it seriously irritating and it would be good if Phoebe turns to him for support and shuts Kate out.

Might Elizabeth be remembering the practice festival Roy coaxed her to? Greenfields (?) (Loxfest was in August I think ...)

19 July. Roll up for the (Lower Loxley) village fete. Roll over, Brian?
20 July. Bert is finding his independence, and Jill is reaching out to Kenton.
21 July. Susan has big plans, and Kate finds sisterly support.
22 July. Josh has a 'brilliant' scheme, and Debbie has ideas for Adam.
23 July. Pip gets some friendly attention, and Brian gets the benefit of Charlie's wisdom.
24 July. Kenton is keen to shake things up, and Adam is put on the spot.
26 July: Adam is on the front foot, and Jolene has a plan for the pub.
27 July: Ian gets an interesting offer and Charlie faces a conundrum.
28 July: Brian takes some advice and Pip plays it cool.
29 July: The Fairbrothers walk out the goslings and David needs a plan of action.
30 July: Charlie feels at a loss and Brian lays it on the line.
31 July: Henry gets a surprise gift and Jennifer feels frustrated.

I hope it's all more interesting than it sounds.

2 August. There is a gathering at Bridge Farm, and Adam makes a decision.
3 August Charlie needs to dig deeper, and Peggy feels generous.
4 August. Jill and Shula hatch a plan, and Helen looks happy.
5 August. Emma feels left out, and Susan wants to move with the times.
6 August. Self-doubting Kate gets a pep talk. Ruth and David get moving.
7 August. Pip keeps things going, and Jolene and Kenton have a mountain to climb.
9 August. Kenton feels sorry for himself, and Shula awaits her guests.

19 August. There is agreement at Berrow Farm, and Jill masks her disapproval.
20 August. Peggy talks shop, and Rob explains himself.
21 August. Kenton feels ashamed, and Jill is dignified.

Sounds like interesting developments on the Kenton and Knob fronts.

Ooh juicy Rob stuff coming up [rubs hands together gleefully]

I could be overthinking this, but is Rob about to part company with Berrow Farm? Charlie finds he's been fiddling the books and tries to sack him, Rob blackmails Charlie with the info about the Adam snog and they settle for Rob leaving without further action.

Helen is daft enough to believe any story he feeds her and she'd put pressure on Tom to give Rob a job at Bridge Farm. Dream come true for Rob, he'd run roughshod over Helen who would defend him at every turn.

sounds like Rob will be devoting himself to bridge farm shortly...

I'd almost forgotten this thread!

Not a spoiler but seeing Caroline's name has prompted me to wonder whether Oliver will be returning on his legs. He's been so out of the story for so long ...

More spoilers:

26 August. Harrison Burns has an idea, and Jim senses Machiavellian intent.
27 August. Rob is very persuasive, and Lower Loxley is transformed.
28 August. Pip knows what she wants, and Pat is full of praise.

Is Heather going to die? There are some signs there that might happen. Susan feels betrayed - by Hazel?

On the other hand, I'm very bothered by Pip knowing what she wants - for the love of god don't let it be to stay in Ambridge for the rest of her life!

Exactly what I thought re.Pip. The other day she said to David 'I'm going in 2 weeks' so the date ties in. Oh God!

Susan is going to discover the shop isn't going back - all part of the pan for the Bridge Farm shops and craft centre.

I hope Pip shags Toby if she must, then gets up and heads off to Brazil.

Thing is - she's not going straight to Brazil. They made sure to have her say that there would be a short spell at the firm's UK HQ first. So it could be that she says goodbye and then (just when Ruth is breathing a sigh of relief that her DD isn't going to oust her from her position as Cow Queen) phones up two days later saying she's made a huge mistake.

I think you're right, Gruach.

30 August. Kenton is dumbfounded, and Helen needs some fresh air.
31 August Jolene has bad news, and the Grundys go to the opera.
1 September Susan pulls no punches, and Rob puts himself forward.
2 September Adam spells out his plans, and David extends the hand of friendship.
3 September Brian has the perfect solution, and Clarrie gets an embarrassing surprise.
4 September There is an important decision to be made, and Fallon is ready for change.

Oh, God, Knob is going to put himself forward to run/ruin Pat and Tony's farm isn't he?

And still they come.

6 September Ruth is looking forward, and Clarrie is looking on the bright side.
7 September Rob is full of ideas, and Rex is in need of a favour.
8 September Jennifer has exciting news, and Kate is on Adam's turf.
9 September Ruth feels out of the loop, and Carol has a blooming good idea.
10 September Jolene offers a sympathetic ear, and Kenton seeks inspiration.
11 September Is Kenton ready to accept help? Neil is dressed to impress.

13 September David has women on his mind, and Jolene feels optimistic.
14 September It is Ed to the rescue once more, and Neil faces a dilemma.
15 September Rob gets into training, and Christine takes on a new challenge.
16 September Ambridge's women celebrate a familiar institution, and Jennifer is reminded of an old friend.
17 September Jill feels haunted, and Peggy offers a warning.

Thanks Gasp0.

Having just speculated about the future of the Bull on the other thread it occurs to me that one possibility might be for Ian to take over at least a share of the pub and turn it into a gastro-destination. That's the kind of thing Brian might suggest. But this Thursday would be a bit too early for him to have thought of it ...

Yes! They need a new chef. Hmm.
