we love the archers and as a joke one xmas I bought dh an archers addicts membership which included a newsletter full of pics of the cast. Psycho is right...don't look..it totally ruined it for me..
(mind you linda snell was just about right )

Poopy, Penelope Keith is my picture of Linda Snell. David is tall with a holey jumper, long back hair and a pudding-bowl fringe.

Alan looks like the vicar on Emmerdale.

Ian looks a bit like a fatter David Tennant.

Hayley looks like Dawn from The Office (even though she doesn't any more)

Ruth looks like Jill Halfpenny but blonder.

Alice looks like she's been smacked in the mouth with a cricket bat (well, in my fantasies anyway).

FuriousGeorge · 06/10/2008 23:00

Alice lives in the next village to me.I know her mum.

MamaHobgoblin · 12/10/2008 22:10

Adam is dark and strapping and bolshy-looking. Ian is tiny and wiry.

Ruth isn't BLONDE! Ooh noooo! Good god, the very idea. She's dark and trim, shortish hair. I suspect her of wearing Boden when she dresses up.

Alan is greying and broadshouldered and has no facial hair whatsoever.

Elizabeth is dainty, petite, brunette and looks as if you could break her over your knee. Oh, if only.

Tony has a very red face, sort of apoplectic. SAndy hair. Short.

Lillian is blonde - dyed obviously, but nicely done, and with natural-looking highlights. She's not half as tarty-looking as she sounds.

I had a peek at the actors on the website once, but I think it was so shocking that I've forgotten what I saw!

boogeek · 13/10/2008 22:02

MHg! I don't believe you are an Archers fan too!

latermater · 13/10/2008 22:11

Matt, florid face, solid but not fat, nasty suits with too-wide lapels and Pringle jumpers.

Alice - dark wavy hair, well built but aspires to dress like Sienna Miller

Usha, slim, beautiful - I always imagine her in a smart long flared skirt - perhaps because she never seems to be really off duty or relaxed

MamaHobgoblin · 14/10/2008 21:07

Boo - mother's milk to me, it is! I used to call it The Archies, apparently. (when I was 3 I mean, not last year)

latermater · 15/10/2008 20:30

I'm afraid my sister and I still call it the Archies...

retiredgoth · 15/10/2008 20:38

.....Jack looks a little like a superannuated Captain Peacock, I think. On the same theme I see Lillian as looking like Mollie Sugden.

(+/- her pussy. Ahem)

.... Matt I think should look like Mike Reid (circa "Runaround"). Yellow ball, anyone?
