Maybe Kenton and Jolene won't be able to come back as they have spent so much on their first class airfare to 'stralia.

Still so many unanswered questions:
What is the sinkhole?? What was that when they were up on lakey hill in the land rover?
What was all that seance nonsense really for?
What will happen now Ed has a bit more £ - will they be able to afford Will's proper non charity rent?

Agree with those saying helen has no backbone = she is DRIVING me up the wall too.
Am still v much enjoying it all though, and this thread which is the only place I can talk about it
V few of my RL friends have a scooby what I'm talking about.

just read the interview about Jill's tape recorder round the cow's neck Grin by the scriptwriter who wrote the original and is leaving TA

"I hope for listeners it was powerful and believable. It just shows that within the supposed constraints of a soap, there’s always room to try something different.:

Certainly beats someone in EE saying the actor's name and not the character's.
BOOP point right there.

I didn't realise you were talking about D&R when you call them the Dopeys. They're my faves

I am sad for Hayley though.
I am v excited about all the fallout though. St Shula's equine swimming pool is a distant splash now - and Lilian won't be able to be bought out any more
What was Lizzie going to use the money for??
I didn't realise that David was Jill's fave - I would have said Lizzie was.

Also what about JE? Will he sue for breach of conrtact? Or expenses???
Know they haven't exchanged yet but I'd be pretty annoyed..

where would hayley work though? She can't go back to LL
Maybe she can up cycle some more of borsetshire's finest junk into vintage overpriced tat and then be a waitress in the tearoom with Fallon?

Yes, maybe Hayley could manage Organics and then give Hellen the back bone to LTB too.
Oh Ppeatfruit I agree but it's so cliched.

@BuildYourOwnSnowman

I like upcycled stuff to a degree but its fallons approach that gets in my nerves!
Yes, this

what what was the time gap meant to be between the initial oh no deevid and stropping in the lambing shed when Deevid was updating ruth?
COs surely she would have said "Hang on a minute - let's discuss this together. are you sure etc?"
He would't have just rung up.
Surely???

@TopazRocks

Yes, we are very honoured to get our own very special 'box interventions, aren't we? Does Olivia use the 'ahem' with Peace and Love and sibs too, do you think?Smile
The reason I have to cough for MNers is cos I'm hoarse from shouting at my children Grin

Maybe Lillian hasn't told Peggy about the full extent of what's gone on with Matt...as doesn't want to worry her but find it weird it hasn't been mentioned.
Also: why were HellRob at tom's b'day??

ROFLING at oedipal flapjack

And loving Bluestockings "veddy Veddy generous" with the jewels.
That is exactly how I see Peggy - a skinnier version of Granny Giles

Whoever it was asking about why the will has been made public pre-Peggy's SOTMC, it's because of all the hoohah with Hazel? Jacks daughter and her expectation. Peggy didn't want there to be fall out (HAHAHAH) so she sat everyone down and said:

Right Well, Tiger and Brine will look after Pusscat and JennyDarling
But Poor Olde Tony - he hasn't done brilliantly at looking after the farm
Tom (the biggest suck up in HISTORY) will inherit everything except the Lodge which we will give to Helen who has made foolish life choices and we don't want Damian Henry to be homeless

Also interesting how cross Rob was about the fact that it's not their house - but Usha's. If they close AO and H not working then will they get a mortgage?(let alone whatever CSA claims Jess might have - that has all gone VERY quiet, hasn't it)

I can't believe Charlie got the okay for a promo deal of You cut our hedges and we will waive the notice period in one afternoon

I also can't believe that he is keeping it quiet
I also can't believe that Ed didn't consider his notice period in his decision making - surely Eddie would have had him abreast of that???

Anyway I am very much enjoying this thread. Need to go and find Ruth's DH one that was linked to from TA. (busy week here)
