Yay!
Disappointed that Russ didn't get more stick over Christmas. He's such a ponce and I'd half expected sticky fingers when he was helping out. The girl (who's name escapes me right now) who works on Justin's pig farm comes across as a nasty piece of work too. I imagine the affordable house allocation will have her seething?

When is Lily going to wise up? And did I sense a connection with someone last week (or a couple of weeks ago), I forget who with though. And will she drop out of Uni to take over running of the business - and will they get their licence back??Disappointed that Russ didn't get more stick over Christmas.
Thinking about Brian Aldridge's dilemma...what stops him dipping into his (presumably large) pension fund to help out?
He's over 70 so in receipt of funds from HMG and whatever private arrangement he made, but can the pension be raided in the event of a guilty verdict at trial? Even without that, could the environment agency remove his home to pay for remedial works (given he has a <18yo living with him)?
Shame I'm actually wasting mental energy on this entirely fictional affair, but sometimes I'd like them to be a tad more 'real' than pursue whatever course gives maximum drama.
And kudos to whoever wrote T. Horrobin's script claiming 'Ambridge Analytics' were fixing the result of the ballot.

t. I agree there is a chance of her dropping out of Uni and running the business. What worries me is that Russ decides to run it with her, and forsakes his art for it. Or else installs himself as "artist in residence".Europa1 said:

1. Why is the theme music for the omnibus played on an accordion?
2. It's on six evenings a week (Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri), but the omnibus is only 5 episodes long. Which episode is missing from the omnibus?
I've been a semi-regular listener for years, and question 2 has only just occurred to me...

1 Just because
2 Edited down across the week
It isn't much of an edit though, as the daily episodes lose a few minutes for the news and general intro stuff, whereas the Omnibus doesn't. If you assume the daily is 13 minutes long, 6 times that works about the same length as the Omnibus, give or take.2 Edited down across the week

As a regular, daily and omnibus, the six episodes are included but skilfully edited so that the story line remains but no big chunks are left out. The listener gets a seamless broadcast.1. Why is the theme music for the omnibus played on an accordion?

Thank you. I already knew what an omnibus was.
