It wasn’t even an affair. It was a long tedious flirtation with the cowman that ended up with them planning to get physical, then deciding not to. Then she confessed this nothingness to David who was overly furious. #TheArchers

We already know that the Gills ripped out Jenny’s kitchen because Lillian had a look around when Joy was housesitting. #TheArchers

I presume that Esme (long term much-loved Ambridge mainstay) is now going to provide George with the business mentoring that (one-dimensional old codger bit-part) Brian is refusing? #TheArchers

Esme has been a friend to all the villagers since childhood. I can’t begin to recount how nice it is to have known her character all my life. #TheArchers

The vineyard!! Blimey, that must be doing excellently now. The LoLo estate is of supreme Tardis proportions. And it has been known to swallow characters for years before spitting them up again. #TheArchers

I call her Lizzie, and so Nigel will live on forever.
One day, Lizzie will step out of the shower & Nigel will be alive, and all will be well.
Freddie will be jolly, creative, and ready to take on LoLox, in partnership with business-minded Lilly. They have shredded primogeniture. #TheArchers

Farming families DO discuss these things. Fictional farming families whose lives are crafted by non-farming writers appear to have missed that memo. #TheArchers

Has Josh told his hens they are on self-service maintenance for two weeks before the magically-employed replacement-Josh starts their contract? #TheArchers

Where will Josh’s newly-found and all-competent manager of his egg business live? #thearchers

Has Josh been 24/7 staffing his egg operation without employing cousins or members of the Horobin family? #thearchers

Did the money to upgrade Josh’s egg business come from the Ambridge money fairy? #thearchers

I’m just a simple listener of Farming Today, and not an Eggspert…. Surely an egg operation of the size of Josh’s has been forced to invest £thousands into indoor housing (buildings, ventilation, lighting, bedding, bio security, 24/7 staffing) since avian flu. #thearchers

Apart from the shouting and the swearing, I’m with you. We’re in the invasion of the bodysnatchers in Borsetshire #thearchers

Brian ffs! A victim of blackmailing doesn’t normally make the first move.
He’ll be writing him into his will next….. #thearchers

Hugh-let #thearchers

Her firm is going to be a major shareholder of Borsetshire Land, so she’ll definitely be back. Along with her 21 year old daughter I imagine. #thearchers

How much did Esme pay Neil to provide her with a credible backstory? #thearchers

Because each week is written by a different person, and there is a lack of editorial control on story details? #thearchers

Is Money-Ag-Olivia Amber’s mother? Or did I make an incorrect leap there? #thearchers

Better than IS a gigolo #TheArchers And isn’t the term prostitute?

Speaking only for me, I was so annoyed at the imposition on us of a newly made up farm at the heart of the village, completely with a man whose sole purpose was to die, and a daughter with a wandering accent, that I wasn’t prepared to invest any emotional thought towards them #TheArchers

It’s another week featuring the guest scriptwriter Thomas Hardy, all the way from C19th. Treating us to his tragedy-tinged take on “Fathers and Sons”. #TheArchers

Quite possibly. And if she does that because she is a stubborn, proud, independent-minded individual, then so be it.
If it were set aside because of cognitive decline, that would be a totally different matter. But there is no evidence of that. #TheArchers

I agree. If she were my family I would be suggesting a Fall Button/watch/pendant. It’s a lot less insulting than telling her to move in with daughter. #TheArchers

Carol, very obviously, has full capacity. Just because her life choices are not approved of by Anna does not make them wrong.
If Carol wants to live in a house without a cleaner, and prioritise her own independence over the inherent risks, Carol is entitled to to make that decision. #TheArchers

Yeah, poor Josh. All he’s got is 30 acres, a privileged upbringing, zero student debt and the means and parental support to drop it all and hop off to Patagonia. #TheArchers

I heard her sound competent, polite, and capable of everything except getting herself up off the floor. I didn’t hear Behaviour. #TheArchers

But it’s not an affair. Alice is single, she’s dating Rex.
No affair.
No right for Chris to behave like a petulant child.
#TheArchers

“Fine mesh screen in his loose box“ …there’s a sentence written by scriptwriters who have zero access to equestrian advisors. However, I do love a good bit of countryside education. That’s what #TheArchers is for!

George’s new found maturity and selflessness is a very very thin veneer. #TheArchers
