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

That's what they do in gyms, BYOS dd2 worked in one and was paid pnuts for doing everything; would give someone good experience for running a health club IMO

So is Kathy (much older than Kirstie too)!! Jessie but Tobes was smarming her. Giving her ideas maybe?

Yes - that's what she said in the interview

The big thing she has no experience of is managing people though

It's all a ploy to get Kirsty back within reach of Tom I reckon. I know it's unpopular but I would like them to make it work. Also didn't Kathy have a abuse / rape storyline with a partner? Before thingy at the pub. Maybe she will spot Helens behaviours.

Er would it be foul to suggest that given his proclivity for workplace affairs, this might trigger a Roy 'n' Kirsty relationship, thereby causing much angst all round? Or is there some reason this couldn't happen (other than Roy's supposed friendship with Tom, which we so rarely hear)?

It's definitely a possibility Pal - they're not related. The SWs might want to throw in some Roy/Tom perturbation. Can't remember how they got on in the past and Roy was hampered by the LL news last night so it was hard to tell. (Kirsty won't be impressed by the reason for his impending divorce either ...)

It would be a rather tired SL though.

I'm really tired of these rivalry storylines. But at least mates would be a change from brothers.

Kathy was raped by a colleague and they weren't in a relationship.

I don't think there has been an abusive relationship in the archers before

The Fairbrethren are going to lose a lot of money and go away. Hope so anyway.

Also that "your handsome brother" thing was totally cringe. No-one would ever say that at work. Ever.

Alert! Feedback on R4 about to discuss Helen and Rob story

It is not dividing Archers listeners! we all hate him!

Barely a discussion!

Pffft. thanks for flagging though DDD

Hearing that again (thanks DDD) it occurs to me that they've been at pains to show us that Rob is a raging, methinks he doth protest too much, homophobe. Perhaps it wasn't lack of contraception that so suddenly outraged Helen? And he's got her booked up with repeat appointments for the foreseeable future.

I dare you BBC ...

That would be a truly eastenders end to that sl

Yes, was a bit brief, sorry if I got you all excited. Were any of the Feedback comments from MNetters?

Let me just lower the tone a bit here. What a shame HP and Roof weren't singing the football version of that favourite cockernee song:
" My old man said be an Arsenal fan I said fuck off bollocks you're a cunt", would have been great in that little awl woman Geordie voice

Askingfor Well I don't know I worked in many offices and shops, also restaurants (not hotels, it's true) but far worse was said then!

Perhaps Kirstie won't get the job thus setting her up to rival Fallon for the B Farm tea room. That really would be awkward. Or pethaps just to work there.

That would actuwlly be great imagine how knob would feel having bith Fallon and Kirsty ensconced at B F working anext door to Hellin

But she did get the job!

She and Helen will be super awkward around each other at first

rob is about to get cross....

ohhh that was hard to listen to.

Helen darling - I AM DISAPPOINTED IN YOU.

I thought Rob was going to hit her then. Poor, poor Helen.

Mind you I could do without moaning from Ruth. So it's all David's fault is it? Get a grip woman!
