Thank you, @PseudoBadger, for kicking off this long, long series of Archers threads.

Archers All views on The Archers welcome here! New blood welcomed, and of course we are always delighted to welcome back former or occasional listeners/posters. We don't all agree on all points, although we do mostly try to be civil about it. Most of us are posting tongue in cheek a lot of the time, so don't worry about revealing that you'd be delighted to oblige your employer by cleaning up sewage spills without proper training or equipment in place of your normal duties, or other unusual views.

Archers Spoilers: not on this thread, please! We don't wait for the omnibus to discuss the weeknight episodes, but we do try our best to avoid cross-contamination from https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/radio_addicts/4636789-the-archers-spoilers-thread-7-cant-wait-for-702pm-join-us-here, where spoilers are positively welcomed!

Archers For newer listeners, lurkers or those who just have no idea what we're talking about, @DadDadDad has created this useful thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/radio_addicts/3557323-For-Archers-fans-a-guide-to-acronyms-on-the-long-running-discussion-threads-and-any-other-meta-thread-questions-you-may-have - BOOP point for him! (See thread for explanation.)

Credit for the title goes to @echt. Can't think of anything much to say about current storylines. Credulity is strained to its limit on many fronts, unfortunately, but there are a few nuggets in the slurry. I did enjoy hearing Natasha's outrage that Fallon is doing obvious, sensible things at The Bull even though it might hit Terum. I thought Natasha was supposed to be an entrepreneur!

Over to you!

But, but...

(I asked AI to make an image of a pig arc, but with pugs instead of pigs. Hmm...)

Did Carrie and Susan have to interview when they first worked for the Dairy?
I really dislike Helen and her attitude to two people who have been there for her for years.
Mick is rude and he hasn't been long in the village and then reports Emma,who does he think he is anyway just an old tramp and why have the parish council taken any notice of a transient.
I think , though he means well, that Robert should stay out of it really, but I know where he is coming from and I think Mucky should be hounded out of the place. I've got my pitch fork ready.

(I don't have a dog)

@Nettleteaser101 , can he take Roach-hell with him please?

Nettleteaser101 · 25/03/2025 08:53

Rochelle, Adam, Pip, Stella, Denise and Alistair have all disappeared.

It's not likely to be permanent. They'll probably come back and dominate for weeks on end.

@Abra1t , not on air.

I know there's another thread, but I was hooked back by the pug ark.

I have stopped listening. This is ridiculous re the sewage leak. Where are the environmental government people? Where are the fines? Where are the lawsuits? A water company floods the countryside with sewage and there are no repercussions? It’s silly and completely unreal in my opinion. Lively hoods impacted, businesses going under and nothing happens? We all know that if this happened it would be national news and the countryside would be covered with people in hazmat suits. It is a real shame that it is being done in such an unrealistic manner - the topic is fine - just deal with it in the way it would play out in real life. I also stopped listening because I don’t tune in at the end of a day filled with ever increasing bad news only to hear more of it from a program that used to provide an oasis of calm and normalcy. I hope this changes because I miss it.

@Geoff1224 ,there's a new thread, but you've not missed much in The Archers. No developments on the sewage. Rochelle returned.
