What’s Kirsty trying to tell Helen?
#TheArchers

Thanks.
That’s what I thought

Quite sad really, her closest female confidant is, of all people, Helen Archer who is remarkably self-absorbed and can’t really think about other’s feelings properly (even her dad and eldest son’s!😬).

#TheArchers

She might want to find someone, literally anyone else to talk too then; I doubt Helen will truly take it in without focusing on herself.
(Am I being harsh??.
#TheArchers

I wonder what that left for his sister to inherit. Maybe that's why they are hardly on speaking terms? Brian's father might well have held similar views to Brian on male inheritance rights. #TheArchers

I heard him in a 3rd Doctor audio a few months ago; he played a vicious military officer called Captain Hall (and doubling as a 2-line UNIT soldier, Private Hutchinson).

He was quite cross in that!
Brig. “You’re not a soldier are you Hall? You’re just a thug in uniform.”
(Or something like that).

Very nice colour there!

Kirsty was definitely going to say *something* before Helen talked over her. Then Kirsty said it wasn't important. I'm desperate to know what it was now. #TheArchers

Jakob’s brother who popped up in 2023, he had a fling with Kirsty and it seems they’ve been having trips together on occasion since.

I *think* Erik organises conferences.

#TheArchers

I can’t thinking Kirsty was about to say something important at one point but Helen cut her off.
#TheArchers

Stella and now Adam....to lose one farm manager may be misfortune, to lose two looks like carelessness.
#TheArchers

Seconded.

I think he’s been acting weird for a while; on NY’s night shortly before George was clonked he was acting a bit disoriented, I think that was to mean there’s something up with him.

#TheArchers

This is the bit where Alice might be able to push her point. The promising the farm to each of them then backtracking predated clonkgate. #TheArchers

Promissory estoppel, Adoom! Ask Usha!

#TheArchers

It’s an equitable claim - ie asking a court to make a declaration that Brine is estopped from leaving the farm elsewhere because he promised it to Adoom & Adoom has acted on that to his detriment over the years. A legal fight post-death would be good!

#TheArchers

Hissy fit? This is a shouty fit. Where’s my popcorn?

If Adam flounces off and Ruairi goes to prison, I quite like to see Kate run the farm for comedic value #TheArchers

Ooh, the disappointment arrived quicker than expected.

#TheArchers

Especially with Brian…and Adam’s just blown it quite spectacularly!
#TheArchers

Ian returns, he was last heard on Sunday 28th September 2025, he was getting very annoyed with Dane’s idea of job-swapping experience.

#TheArchers

I hope we get on to #TheArchers faster than last night!…evidently not!

Just to let everyone know, for the nth time, I don’t want another Prime Minister after the last time we had four in a revolving door.

The world’s on fire and we need stability.
’10 to ‘24 was a disaster and you have amateurs in the Greens and swivel-eyed Loons in Reform. Things will get better.

The application has remained stable since the evening of April 16 and we have seen no evidence of unauthorized access to private user data. Given the ongoing stability, this will be our final update.

I doubt she is, what little I know of her she’s married with children.
I want to imagine that her husband was well off (I think their dad was pretty much Brian Snr so probably installed similar values in his kids).
#TheArchers

Yep!

I just hope Kirsty’s not going through yet another heartbreak situation next week😬….

Now the credits are up- and we have a returning character of great interest….
#TheArchers

Continuing listening to Big Finish’s adaptation of Treasure Island;

Tom Baker plays both Long John Silver and, with the aid of some modulation, Silver’s parrot Captain Flint.

Brian mentioned his sister not long ago, around the time if Jennifer's funeral possibly. Maybe she sent condolences, I can't remember. I noticed because I was surprised. He said apart from exchanging Christmas cards & the odd email, they don't have any contact. #TheArchers

It’s very rarely mentioned.

He’s also forgotten his sister Elizabeth.
