Do we fully believe the news at 8 in that it was Nigel who fell?

yes, sad to say it was.....but maybe the hay thief was parked underneath and gave him a soft landing.

I definitely think there was a low 'grunt' after the scream, perhaps he is still alive.

The scream is now available as a ring tone.

He's dead- Vanessa Whitburn blew it on the Today programme this morning

Ok she is nutty as a fruit cake but she just needs a good man , given the editor of the programme she not ever likely to meet one .

As documentaries go the Archers is no worse than any other

How long will it take to realise she got a real bad one?

Anyone who thinks that the Archers is an unrealistic portrayal of English village life hasn't lived in my village, which is more like Ambridge than Ambridge is, except when it's more like Wicker Man.

I missed it - what happened?

[surveyor]

Brian and Adam are fighting.

Adam's gone all eco and wants to tear up Charlie's Contract so that he can grow lentils to help the soil.....

Meanwhile Toby is thinking of making a move on Pip as she's set for life with land....

Ah, another everyday tale of country folk then...

[motco]

What was the verdict at Grace Archer's inquest? Is Christine still riding 'Midnight'?

Is Rob really a baddie though, or just not a particularly likable man?

Let's face it Jess seems to be a bit of a fruit loop.

Adam does rather seem to have lost the plot of late.

Is Toby only interested in Pip for what he can get out of her and put in her or is he actually a nice enough bloke? I'm not hearing too many warning signs other than oldies wishing to revisit the sins of the father on the sons.

My biggest issue with the Archers though is nothing to do with the above. It's how long they will keep that utter wk stain of an ex Eastenders producer on for before they kick the cocksocket into the long grass.

The Archers - An everyday tail of farming folk. Someone needs to write that in point 72 all over that c-unit's body and mind. This is the Archers - 15 minutesish of gentle escapism and storytelling that has been going on for more years than most on this Forum have been alive. It is supposed to be about the social and farming issues of the day. Not a radio version of Eastenders.

As for the new cast - FFS I just don't even know where to begin to start. Pip sounds older than her mother!

And just to clear things up - never listened to the Archers bar one or two episodes until 2005 when I met the Mrs. SInce then manage to catch about 50% of the broadcasts and have become a full on convert, or at least I was till they brought that utter, raving, did your daddy touch you as a child? throbber in.
