It's just so dull.
And Tom and Brenda shut UP.

Adam Yes! It's true there're all bloody moaners....
None worse than Susan!!

queenceleste · 06/07/2010 11:07

Oh Biran and Kenton is a nasty mental picture......
Yuck.

piprabbit · 06/07/2010 11:10

Cathy has always been a moany, humourless cow. I could never work out what Sid saw in her, nor why Kenton seemed to sleepwalk into a relationship with her.

Ruth nearly shagged the cowman, Sam... says it all really.

Eleison · 06/07/2010 11:12

Oh yes, Sam!

Mmmmm, he really knew how to get maximum yield from a cow -- until it came to Ruth.

Sam that's the one! Oh Ruth you veritable Strumpet.

Also I never got why David was so aggrieved when he'd come pretty close with that ex of his! Hypocrite!

and what has happened to helen's pregnancy?

oh who heard the bit when they were talking about engerland losing the football last week, it was botty clenchingly embarrassing.

NoahAndTheWhale · 06/07/2010 11:27

I listen to the Archers very sporadically. We all listened to the omnibus on Sunday in the car. Good accordian playing for the theme tune

Why does Jude call Pip Fizz I wonder? Makes me think of the Tweenies. The sooner Pip sorts herself out the better.

The moaning did make an hour of the M1 go a bit quicker so that's good.

RuthieCohen · 06/07/2010 11:27

Glad I'm not the only one who listens every day and still has next to no clue of the plot or what any of the characters are called

Bit like the shipping forecast really..

queenceleste · 06/07/2010 11:29

LOL @ "botty clenchingly "

missed that football bit, mercifully.

Helen is another one of these anodyne female characters. I think it says so much of the writers that the women are such a dull group.

Only the men get to be interesting. The women get to be noble, snooty, wholesome, serious, dependable, professional, occasionally immoral but always dull. Elizabeth is now the Queen of po-faced Arse.

The men can at least be Racy Cads! Or go to prison!

NoahAndTheWhale · 06/07/2010 11:30

The football bit was rather forced it has to be said.

GrimmaTheNome · 06/07/2010 11:35

Those 'topical' bits they squeeze in right at the last minute don't always work too well.

queenceleste · 06/07/2010 11:35

i think Ruth's gonna pull here

LadyBiscuit · 06/07/2010 11:35

I reckon Jude will just disappear off to the States one day. But then it will be even worse with Pip mooning about the place, heartbroken. It will be painful.

I've always loathed Cathy. Her and Pat being friends is absurd - Pat wouldn't have time for her passive aggressive whining

OrmRenewed · 06/07/2010 11:38

Jude will dump Pip (hurray!)
Kenton will dump Cathy because she's being PA and vile.

piprabbit · 06/07/2010 11:39

Elizabeth may be po-faced now, but she had a very racy past... unsuitable men, an abortion and she toyed cruelly with Nigel before agreeing to marry him. Caused her parents awful heartache.

MaryAnnSingleton · 06/07/2010 11:41

hate the way Cathy is whining on...almost feel sorry for Kenton - and long for pip and jude to bugger off - of course she'll eventually see the light...

GrimmaTheNome · 06/07/2010 11:42

Isn't it funny how Nigel is now just about the most sane and sensible person around?

MaryAnnSingleton · 06/07/2010 11:43

Jude/alistair/kenton all sound alike to me - he is totally unconvincing as even a 29 year old - Pip is a rotten actress and thoroughly dislikeable (waves to ipanema !)

KnitterNotTwitter · 06/07/2010 11:43

Definitely think that Jude is gonna dump Pip soon - or bugger off without her and not even have the decency to dump her... She seems WAAAY more into him than he is into her. And I don't think he actually likes the idea of working his way round the world - sounds more of a sirker than a worker to me...

Jux · 06/07/2010 11:48

I used to love the Archers, but I it went through a phase like this about 10 years ago, at which point I stopped listening. Haven't been back. If you hang on long enough, you may be listening to it in 25 years' time; or you could switch off (like I did) and have free Sunday mornings

GrimmaTheNome · 06/07/2010 11:52

Be careful, Jux - start hanging about on Archers' threads and soon you'll be lured back to listening. They have podcasts now, you know, so you don't have to do it sunday morning, you can half listen while MNing..

queenceleste · 06/07/2010 12:03

Jux, I sometime veer in your direction. It's definitely getting duller by the year.

MAS! Hope you're well! >>

queenceleste · 06/07/2010 12:03

Also on what does Jude survive? Is he some kind of trustafarian?

OrmRenewed · 06/07/2010 12:04

Oh Jux - you can run but you can't hide! It will get you in the end....
