New thread for tonight's episode.

Do you like the decor then? My 'personal' assistant did it.

Very much so. It's one of the many things that annoys Brian about having her living at Home Farm. Grin

What's Peggy going to do? Didn't they say that the bail decision was not appeal-able; it can only be revisited if conditions change. I'm guessing that they are going to focus on the MH diagnosis (lack thereof).
Is Peggy implying that Anna didn't do her job properly. Will she replace her. How will that play with Carol, it could cause frosty relationships in the village.

BYOS I think you need to be channeling Joe's farmer's lung . A bit of gurgley coughing and hacking might get the point across.

GypsyFl0ss · 10/05/2016 20:48

I think Lils , as I've said before, is ripe for a lung cancer diagnosis. Proper RL shizz, not bolloxy nonsense.

i couldn't go round in the end but on past form they will stoke the flames again tomorrow lunchtime and get it going every 90 mins or so. Thinking of taking dd and getting her to do the grundy cough - good thinking gypsy!!

GypsyFl0ss · 10/05/2016 20:58

Can she spit BYOS ' cos I think to keep it true to Joe she needs to gob something horrible on their driveway. Rather like a fluidy exclamation mark if you like Grin

BYOSnowman · 10/05/2016 21:30

We'll have to work on that

PseudoBadger · 10/05/2016 21:41

It was very pointed, they way they said the bail decision couldn't be appealed unless anything changes.

what? like having a baby!

i still can't get over the fact she doesn't seem to have seen a dr about her mental health given she was seeing one before

BeauGlacons · 10/05/2016 21:52

Pseudo, I barely date mention this, but have you thought of a new title?

PseudoBadger · 10/05/2016 21:53

Happy to take suggestions still.

I was listening tonight but simultaneously trying to understand my satnav which was trying to direct me along a new road which was not on the map IYSWIM. Please can someone explain the Peggy thing as I was not paying enough attention when it was on.

BeauGlacons · 10/05/2016 21:58

Don't have your knack pseudo but could you do a play on SOC mixing up his Peggys

Grumpy Pat went to wail at Peggy yesterday so Peggy went to mull things over with JD today. Peggy thinks it is unconscionable for someone who is just about to pop to be in jail (note: not only special snowflake Helen, but anyone). Peggy is going to Do Something About It. JD agreed that it was awful that Pat couldn't see Helen; she said something along the lines of 'you need your mum at times like these' - I think it was the closest mother/daughter comment I've heard from those two!
JD mentioned (in a SW's-hint sort of way) that Helen's mental state has always been a bit fragile.

BeauGlacons · 10/05/2016 22:21

Who's JD? I know I missed it!

R4 · 10/05/2016 22:25

JD = Jenny Darling

elephantoverthehill · 10/05/2016 22:26

Pseudo I think the new title should perhaps have something to do with the Grundys' mushroom compost on the Snells' garden.

PseudoBadger · 10/05/2016 22:32

I had pondered that too elephant!

I have no idea what on earth Peggy could possibly do to get Helen out on bail but I hadn't realised until the Night of the Custard that she lived so near to BH Cottage.
I wonder if she has been noticing more about what went on there than she has previously let on.

elephantoverthehill · 10/05/2016 22:40

May be something along the line of 'toadstools at dawn'? Sorry I don't have your gift. Grin

Something a bit Rob not being a fungi, or a mention of Tilly Button-Mushroom. Apparently there is a mushroom called Crimino, if that helps. It didn't help me Blush.

I thought Eddie had refused No1 on the grounds that it was Ednemmur's home. But what kind of family would see their parents on the street and a 90yo man in a homeless shelter, when there's a perfectly good house stood idle??

SaraTheFairy · 10/05/2016 22:57

Damn. Too late Sad

Vaara · 11/05/2016 08:26

I did a Hmm fave at Peggy last night admonishing JD for gossiping, or rather "dwelling on all that" was it? Like Peggy can talk, gossip is her life blood!

Vaara · 11/05/2016 08:28

BOOP point for Brine and Adam. I thought they played very true talking about Julian and the wind turbines etc

"I know you're not in love with the idea Adam"
"I'm not even flirting from the other side of the room!"
