Maybe he’ll just be a voicemail played by Ed to the police?

SurpriseSparDay · 09/03/2020 13:10

(Gavin, I mean.)

TherapistInATabard · 09/03/2020 13:10

Haha I like that

UnholyStramash · 09/03/2020 19:47

Robert getting bad news tomorrow means we’ll hardly be part lunch time. And Elizabeth flips - making a big deal of ?somebody putting her little Freddie in danger?

MollyButton · 09/03/2020 20:36

I think the sheet metal was the lockers in the staff room which had toppled in the explosion.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 09/03/2020 20:49

By the way, we're going to need a new thread here soon. Is @Gumpendorf still about? And if not, any volunteers?

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 09/03/2020 20:51

The metal banging was going on before the explosion; that was why I was bewildered by it, because I couldn't think what on earth the workman in the kitchen was doing to make that particular noise.

UnholyStramash · 09/03/2020 20:52

@MollyButton - it could be and maybe Freddie was trapped under them?

MollyButton · 09/03/2020 21:05

@UnholyStramash that's what I thought was going on, maybe they smashed into each other rather than crushing him but Lynda was pinned by a table, and maybe by an open door to the kitchen?

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 09/03/2020 21:34

But they were in the kitchen after the explosion, weren't they? In which case they can't have been trapped under lockers in the staff-room.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 09/03/2020 21:35

And Lynda couldn't work out what the noise was either! She went through to complain about it.

KingscoteStaff · 09/03/2020 22:42

Surely the sound of those metally kitchen shelves - the ones that are always being knocked over in action films?

UnholyStramash · 09/03/2020 23:03

I’ve got no idea. It’s just a great blur of sounds to me. All I can remember is Lynda went off to check the noise but she wasn’t away long before the bang. Had she even reached the kitchen? Was Freddie in the staff room with the muffins? I’ve no idea.

UnholyStramash · 09/03/2020 23:04

*Pls in your minds delete one ‘I’ve no idea‘. Blush

MrsCollinssettled · 09/03/2020 23:26

Is Oliver going to have to move in with the Grundys?

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 09/03/2020 23:27

That would be the guest Clarrie is worried about, maybe? (A guest in his own house.)

TherapistInATabard · 09/03/2020 23:32

Yes I thought that

Motoko · 10/03/2020 07:24

Of course. I did wonder who her guest was. Makes sense it would be Oliver.

whoseafraidofnaomiwolf · 10/03/2020 14:25

Nooooo....Lindaaaaa?!!

No! Surely not? She can't be... she's invincible.

Not Linda?

UnholyStramash · 10/03/2020 17:57

I wonder if this incident at GG is an alternative to the inferno that was expected at LL away back when these spoiler threads began. It’s possible the new editor decided Elizabeth and co had had enough so they’d spread the load somewhat.

MereDintofPandiculation · 10/03/2020 20:55

So - has anyone checked future casts lists to see if we hear from Lynda? Or found out what Lynda's actor is working on at the moment, and how long before she's free to come back to TA? Is there any realistic possibility that an elderly lady can recover from full-thickness burns to the face coupled with smoke inhalation?

WobblyLondoner · 10/03/2020 21:38

So it wasn't Gavin after all, but someone whose name (somewhat eerily) I've already forgotten. Brook/ Brett? I'm guessing Gavin asked him to do the job because he didn't want to..

Fingers crossed for Lynda. A very annoying woman at times I know, but I always had a soft spot for her.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 10/03/2020 21:48

Blake.

Lynda is not in the casts for the next couple of weeks, but if she is in an ICU they wouldn't want to let a sound crew in (grin)

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 10/03/2020 21:53

Bore said on the other thread that sepsis could set in 7-10 days on from major burns like this, if I understood her correctly. Sad

Any volunteers to start a new spoiler thread in the next few days?

Madcats · 10/03/2020 21:55

Has anybody started a new thread? I've wandered over to Ambridge Reporter and haven't seen anything venturing into April.

If I knew where to look to wander further, I would.
