One Flue Over The Shepherd's Hut - Discuss The Archers Here

[PseudoBadger]

I do hope Lynda has a carbon monoxide monitor in there...

I can't bear it! Henry should at least be with grandparents. I really don't think I can listen anymore until it's all resolved. What a sh!tty storyline.

Sitting tight for tonight....

Why don't they just reopen the shop?

What are they doing with all their time?.not looking stuff up on the internet for sure!

Pat, Pat, Pat.

Right! I'm going to speak to Ursula to get my grandson back! He's in danger!!

Oh but I'll just quickly have a natter with Clarrie first.....

Fucking priorities woman!

Bastards!

So it's next morning? So they let him there all night and did nothing?

My mother would be yelling at him that he's not Henry's fucking father at all, not really.

Get your fucking arse in gear pat!

I just don't get why Henry is seeming so happy with Knob, surely he'd at least show signs of being wary of him.

I need to stop listening to this programme, I spend most of my time swearing at the radio!

Helen needs to know what's happening with Henry asap!

Delurking. I thought this would be a Rob free episode. Managed it until the wailing in the polytunnel but then had to turn it off. Hearing Rob is upsetting enough but I'm getting hoarse yelling Social Services at the radio now. Also, where is Tony again?

Maybe if Helen knew about this, it will help her open up and talk about what happened.

Henry is the worlds most oblivious child

He could see granny arsula gobbled up by a t-Rex and his response would be 'awight dint-saw, where's gwanny gone?'

Slam the fucking door is her face! Why the HELL are they letting her take advantage like this?

It's utterly mental

I'm beginning to think I'm the nutter, that I'm mad to think I'd rant and rave when in TA they simply hand their grandson over to someone who they know has been abusing their daughter.

Fucking hell I'm being gas lighted. By The Archers!

Can I please just apologise for my language tonight. I need to channel my inner Linda Snell

I think for once Pat is being sensible if you can call it that after giving her grandson away she's spoken to Dominic and handled the situation with a more informed approach. She knows they will go to court so she can't afford to give them ammunition.

Yep jelly that's what I'm hoping too. She will see she has to fight for Henry.

Delurking....
But I don't understand why they didn't call the police last night. Even if they didn't have rights, surely there'd be a concern raised with Social Services? I felt completely sick listening tonight, but I really can't comprehend why they're so inert.

TASWAMA.............

Good luck getting him.back through court. They'd have to prove it was in his best interest. There are no grounds.

If they asked Henry he'd say he wanted to stay with his dad (who is, most of the time, pretty good to him).

I think his complete lack of reaction may be because he either thinks it was all a game (don't know if many 5 year old would u derstand what being stabbed means) or he wasn't really awake. My kids remember nothing about it if yhey get up in the night.

It will all come back eventually

Pat'n'Tone should have let Ursula in to collect the clothes ... and then held her captive until Rob agreed a prisoner swap.
Oh, hang on. That assumes that Rob wants Urs back - he would probably rub his hands with delight at the witch being detained elsewhere.

Someone needs to look into why knob didn't want to apply to adopt Henry. Surely the family court would ask a few questions/look at Robs criminal record. Surely Anna tregoran might already have done that?

Bizarrely Rob seems completely powerless when he's around Ursula

Well.

That was fun.

And no doubt about Johnny's ancestry.

Pat and Helen have trained him well.
