The Cheese Queen needs to tread Caerphilly. Camembert the tension? Join The Archers thread and hope it gets Feta from here on.

Sorry but I couldn't resist an opportunity for puns galore

.... And Jill is back in brookfield!!!

I knew the moment HP burst into song that she was doomed.

She dillied and dallied
She dallied and dillied

And then she popped her clogs
Sorry

How soon will Jill move back then?

I feel I should state the blindingly obvious - in real life, of course I would be very, very sympathetic to anyone who lost their mum. But this isn't real life and this storyline has been very poorly handled indeed. Now we can move on.

OMG HP!

Can someone please explain what the friff was going on in the cricket match please?
I figured that Rob gaslighted (gaslit?) Hezza in the final scene with the video but what was his actual crime??

Hoorah!! Thanks Gasp!!

Thank goodness.. . For one horrible minute I thought they were going to stretch this one out for a month or two!! I

Hmm seems lots of people aren't massively keen on Rob.

Jill! Put down the wax doll and walk away.

He cheated with an edge something or other [clueless] he also seemed to have encouraged Jonny to become a horrid sportsman. He was also vile to Adam.

"Playing Bridge" indeed!

I know exactly what Jill, Carol and Hester were doing last week ...

Olivia - not 100% sure about this as I am not a cricket expert, but Rob was out as he'd edged the ball, as seen by some of his team. He refused to admit it, as the umpire hadn't seen the sin so had given him not out. Good sportsmanship would have been to admit it and walk. This happy scene was inadvertently videoed by Helen, which video Rob apparently deleted at the end of the episode.

Honestly that was so poorly done - I have sobbed in the past at the archers and I just didn't care at all about HP.

Finally!

Wonder if they'll play Heatherpet's last song at the funeral?

Would sound good on a church organ.

Van instead of hearse.

I was in a coffee shop when Phil died and I wept real tears. It wouldn't really have mattered how they did it because he was a character I'd grown up with and he and Jill have always reminded me of my own parents a bit.

Heather is a character who's never really been there long enough to become embedded. She's Ruth's mother and I have little time for Ruth. Sorry, but I just never really cared about her.

It will be back to the tears if I outlive Brian or Lynda.

If they'd been on the M1 on Sunday HP would probably have died naturally anyway. Those long 50mph stretches. Wasn't great farther north on the A1 either.

I wept for a week over Mark and I didn't even like him much.

Not at all happy about David getting exactly what he openly wished for - again

It was Jill when she went to see the bees. She will have told them how sad she was to have been ousted from Brookfield by a Geordie interloper.

They have mysterious powers, do bees

I just tried to log in on my phone to swank about having predicted HP's demise on the previous thread, and the banner ad at the top of the site was 'Funeral costs to triple'. Spookily apposite.

Just call me Mystic Bore

Really hope Josh is moving into H's room right now.

Bows down to the great mystic bore.

Bore [polishing cloth for your crystal ball]

I am also pissed off that David gets his way - again.
