The Archers. No need to share the thread with anyone else darling, we can have a lovely time just us together. It must be Henry's bedtime.

New thread for the Omnibus.

I was just sniggering childishly at "come tuppence" sounds rude

Once people start to doubt then they'll realise that all his dealings with them can be viewed in a different way, Pat and Tom particularly. The whole edifice could come down quite fast.

Yep the whole village will be sticking their oar in once he is outed as the Ambridge baddie.

Have definitely had enough of it all now, I started listening to TA during a very stressful time in my life because I found it calming and a bit of escapism, this is not what I signed up to!

Wish they would tell us when the big showdown will be so we can plan an Archers thread party

I've been lurking long and hard on this thread and now it's thrown up all sorts of questions. I've not been a regular listener (until a recent weekend that I spent I'll in bed and caught up on a month's worth of episodes) so there are a few gaps in my knowledge. Could someone just clear up a few things?
What happened to Stefan?
Was H's baby conceived through rape?
How did he bruise her and where?
Thank you!

I don't actually want to listen tonight. I'm still creeped out from last night's episode. :(

No, I don't want to listen either.

Where, Stefan (according to Rob) returned home because of family illness. No one's heard from him since.

We aren't 100% sure that H's baby was conceived by rape, but that's the balance of opinion, yes. A lot was left to the imagination, but his "romantic night in" turned into forceful and forced impregnation which left her bruised. The episode ended with you wondering if the worst was going on, and the next one opened with Helen sobbing, and not answering her phone.

I keep getting hopeful that I can start listening to the broadcasts again - have caught a few odd snippets - but my hopes are constantly dashed.

I want the option to LA to the film on my computer, with it automatically skipping the scenes where Knob is being unbearable, while not skipping those where someone stands up to him (few and far as those are).

Thank you!

He won't let her out of his sight for tonight's MW appointment, that's if there ever was an appointment for this evening. He's going to try to get the MW on his side through his concern for his poor exhausted wife who keeps making irresponsible decisions.

Arsehole

Still at least he's not going with her.
Yes. Tell Kirsty.
Tell her!!

What conceivable point can there be in a jobshare where KnobHell are both on the same shifts?

Oh god, if Rob stops this meeting ....

My heart is racing again. He's bound to turn up, because he won't be able to let it go. She's made it!!!!

Who else works in the shop? if they share shifts, either they might have to double their hours or else someone else will have to take over one of their jobs.

Tell Kirsty... please...

Oh come on Helen, tell the truth!

Terrified Helen is going to say she doesn't have time for Kirsty and won't be in touch much over the next few months as she's busy resting everyday.

Oh god! Don't tell Kirsty you don't want to see her anymore.

Helen is so going to fob off Kirsty

Helen, join the fucking dots...

Come on. Kirsty is bang on the money.

Do we not get to hear the scan?

Helen knows Kirsty has suspicions & that she can trust her completely. As soon as she has the courage to take that next step, she knows Kirsty will believe her. She just can't believe it herself yet.

Tarty? Fucks sake
