Busted!

You just knew this was going to happen, any wriggle room for the way the police/stag party was behaving I wonder.

I wouldn't think so. He deserves all he's got coming really.

I'm assuming Alice is getting the cold shoulder from her tutor?

[K12beano]

Alice?

[e30m3Mark]

Sorry - I meant Lilly. (I've been up all night driving to Birmingham and back for work)

He's been pretty insufferable of late and although I'm still a week behind (I do weekly catchups), I hope the book is fully thrown at him...

[james_tigerwoods]

I'm caught up (to Sunday's weekly podcast anyway) - I found myself laughing at the penny dropping with Kate as that's been a long time coming.

And I really hope the book is thrown at Freddy... Harsh, but I think it's required...

She is a proper Space Cadet. We spent the day with my wife's family yesterday, and whenever her youngest sister says anything at all, I think of Kate

I suspect that, now she's realised the implications, Kate will back down, and persuade Brian and Jennifer not to sell the house after all.

And I hope they kick her out anyway.

I can't see that she wouldn't back down as now she can clearly see that they're serious - I suspect they'll still sell as the buyer for that other land has pulled out hasn't he?

And yes - kick her out and send her to live in one of her Yurts as Roy suggested

Yep, book to be thrown at Freddy I reckon - his complacency was being given the spotlight last night.

Lily to have her heart splatted all over Dumpsville (Population: her) and plough her exams.

Hopefully something will happen to make Shula's current bout of holier than thou-ness disappear.

And yes, I too smiled when woman-child Kate realised the obvious implication of the house sale.

Unless he confesses all and drops Ellis in it?

Soo Linda is doing her Christmas panto as usual, something dawned on me the other day.

Most of the population of the village are either in the play or involved in the production so who watches it?

[Doofus]

It's a fair question. I wonder if they have any tickets left; it's not far from me...

Not sure Canturbury Tales is a Panto.

We know the arts critic from the local paper goes to watch plus there are plenty of villagers who aren’t in it: Jill, Brian, Jennifer, Ruari, Peggy, Adam, Ian, Lexi, Elizabeth, Lilly, Ben, Pip etc. In fact I can think of more who are not in it than I can ones who are in.

[The Don of Croy]

I think most of Waterly Cross get free tickets. And Felpersham. Plus the patrons of the Feathers (of whom nothing has been heard for yonks).

Where do all the punters for Elizabeth's festive tat come from?

[e30m3Mark]

Personally I’m hoping Russ comes in for some stick at Christmas dinner. I get the feeling he see’s more than one free meal courtesy of his new ‘inlaws’ and Elizabeth being unwell.

I'm hoping for / expecting a big bust up as the scales finally fall from Lily's eyes. Russ is a whining man-child and needs several swift kicks in the bks.

I’m more concerned about Jenny Aldridge. Will she be able to cope with living in a semidetached?

Not if Brian moves in too. She'd be fine on her own. Who needs that much oblivious, self-pitying moaning?

This. He's a knob! Reckon there will be a good kick off at the Christmas dinner - looking forward to it

This is closer to home for me than many...I am friends with the actor’s (Jenny Aldridge) son.
