If The Archers characters were acted by dogs, Rob would be a Shih Tzu. Discuss Ambridge events here.

[PseudoBadger]

Avoided a non-sweary title.

Pussycat, exactly

It's so lovely to hear them all talking & behaving totally in character again

Where are stefan and rob meeting for the handover?

at a previously unheard of cafe I think

silvery

In 'the cafe on the corner'.

Lilian definitely heard the substance of what Stefan was shouting, happily.

Are we all geared up for the party of the year tomorrow? I wonder what dogs Lily and Freddy would be .. maybe the sort that destroy the house while you're out.

Is it a cafe on the corner of a long dark alley?

is the cafe on the corner near Rob's flat? (or was it a pub they went to last week?)

Good for Kirsty. Totally Four Weddings!

Thanks for the new thread, pseudo.

So is Kirsty going to see that Tom is a great dad and in a year or so ask him to marry her after all?

It was a pub last week. Maybe it's the cafe Lillian and Jennifer were in. Or the cafe where Jennifer and David met Stefan. Or maybe Rob has bought a cafe in Ambridge with Peggy's money so as to deliberately ruin the Bridge Farm tea shop.

Just caught up with John Finnemore. Lynda at the end was great.

Place marking. Loving the Rob unraveling storyline.

Do you think there is any possibility Rob will report the blackmailing to the police?

I don't think it is very likely.

Lilian definitely heard the substance of what Stefan was shouting, happily

And all that over egging of how dreadful it was that Lillian should have to overhear language which .... would be very unlikely to shock Lillian at all.

This is all very intriguing. I usually come on here at this time to see if I can wait until tomorrow to LA. I think I can.

Thanks for the thread pseudo.

Hopefully Lillian not only heard Stefan, but also Rob confirming his guilt in his attempt at bluffing Stefan that it would be fine with Justin.

Stefan is something like a Rottweiler growling menacingly at someone who's kicked him the past.

Lillian is a spitz type dog, maybe a pomeranian. Fluffy with a big smile, but a bit foxy and with pricked up ears!

David does occasionally morph into a dachshund though, if he catches scent of a badger.

Anyone else have to google to find out what special relevance Sto Lat might have to a Pole?

Joe Grundy is a lurcher.

That reminds me - in a discussion of honorifics, someone mentioned the Quaker custom of referring to someone as Firstname Surname. When Joe, with his habit of doing likewise shuffles off his mortal coil, the SWs should import a Quaker to perform this aurally useful role.

I'm a couple of days behind but just LOVED Susan pimping her tabard.

Dogs eh? Strangely co-incidental, because I listen to most episodes in my car during my lunch-hour, while parked next to a pet shop. I see plenty!

Elizabeth is an Afghan hound. I've always seen her with wonderful auburn hair

Are you thinking of a red setter? I always think of Afghans as blondes. Surely Kate is the obvious Afghan hound?

Oh sorry, I see you have David as a red setter.

Thank you for the new thread Pseudo. Elizabeth talking about being expelled & being a teen means some of the scriptwriters must be using their memories rather than trying to rewrite the past.

Meanwhile, Tom's vow never to ask Kirsty to marry him again will undoubtedly be resurrected in the future,

Lord Peter Whimsey and Harriet Vane! She tried to limit his proposals and then he stopped and she realised that she actually wanted to marry him.

I like the dog casting. I'm thinking of Lillian as an Afghan, I can just imagine an Afghan tossing her mane, with fag in one paw, gin in the other.
I ageee that Pip is an annoying yappy dog, the type that runs round the big dogs at the park convinced they must all be in awe of her.
