So, as the trial has been and gone, we are all glad that Helen won, and Rob had his true self revealed, will the rift 'tween Adam & Ian be healed?

Whose jam will be judged to be the best? Will Joe approach his final rest?

Will Grange Farm rent be paid on time?

Can I be arsed inspired to write more drivel rhyme?

Away we go!

So far they have 40% 'affordable' on the plan but sadly it is often the case that so called affordable isn't as suzied suggests.

Phoebe. S.T.D??

fiorentina51 Fri 11-Aug-17 08:18:04

What on earth has happened to sensible Phoebe??

MawBroon Fri 11-Aug-17 16:13:16

Time for Matt to meet with a suspiciousaccident?
Where is Rob Titchener when you need him?

Luckygirl Fri 11-Aug-17 17:37:04

Oh Phoebe! I thought she was such a good girl!

maryeliza54 Sun 13-Aug-17 22:55:24

I'm finding the story line about Emma and Ed and the affordable housing really interesting - I thought Emma's lines tonight sounded very authentic

Pregnancy test with sound effects shock

Good for you ,Emma! We'll said.
Jennifer's girls were given houses by their parents.
Good, realistic story line on how difficult it is for young people to get a house these days.

Brilliant Emma - I was shouting at the radio for her to mention Kate and Alice

phoenix Thu 17-Aug-17 08:03:29

Damn sight more realistic than flapjack flinging Jill.

AyjayF Fri 18-Aug-17 19:17:42

Was it a new Chris Carter tonight?

merlotgran Fri 18-Aug-17 19:23:28

I was too busy listening to Emma to notice. It's a really good storyline.

The entitled of Ambridge just don't know how lucky they are.

maryeliza54 Fri 18-Aug-17 20:17:49

Just loving Emma - excellent story line

Did anyone hear 'Justin Elliot ' on radio 4 this morning? He said he was currently engaged to Lilian. Do you think they will actually marry? It sounded as though they might not.

shysal Sun 20-Aug-17 14:06:23

Yes, Ayjay, definitely a new Chris. This one has a deeper voice and a more pronounced accent.

mcem Mon 21-Aug-17 15:24:34

On the subject of accents - I was half listening and had to relisten to part of Lilian's chat with Justin about the dahas. Wondering what she was on about I worked out that she was referring to the dower house. Matt subsequently called it the daar haas.
Do we all speak the same language?
Dow er how ss!

merlotgran Mon 21-Aug-17 15:33:29

I'm really confused about this Dower House stuff.

Matt sold it to ???? to put it in trust with Lilian as beneficiary.

Justin is going to buy it (whatever the price)

Who gets the money?

mcem Mon 21-Aug-17 17:53:14

I didn't think he'd sold it, just put it in trust. Lilian will get the cash when the trust sells to Justin.
He'll pay over the odds as he's desperate to live with L in the dahas.

merlotgran Mon 21-Aug-17 18:56:23

Thanks, mcem. So Lilian will get the dosh and will still have a half share in the dahas.

Nice one!

merlotgran Mon 21-Aug-17 18:59:45

I'm going to add 'Darhaas' to my dictionary of daft Ambridge pronunciations along with Rooarri, Hellin and Jilleen. grin

phoenix Mon 21-Aug-17 22:44:23

Has anyone else read the Ambridge Diary thing in the Radio Times for this week? Sounds a bit ominous esp. re Tiger & Pusscat..........................shock

shysal Tue 22-Aug-17 09:12:27

Yes phoenix, it says 'final judgement day' hmm

shysal Wed 23-Aug-17 09:41:25

Bought the new RT yesterday, which reveals more about a dilemma for Adam regarding Tiger and Pusscat.

AyjayF Wed 23-Aug-17 10:19:29

Said it before, say it again. Where is the lovely Ian?. Best voice in The Archers

travelsafar Mon 11-Sept-17 06:36:48

Blimey have we all fallen out of love with the Archers???
