So that’s Lilly subtly written out for the next year. Maybe it will give poor mute Lizbeth more chance to get a word in edgeways. Plus, it’s one fewer person to talk about cricket. 🥳 #TheArchers

Hazel. Hooray. All is forgiven. #TheArchers

I’d forgotten how uninterested I was in the beavers. It’s quite nostalgic. I wonder if they’ll mention Herbal ‘mind freeze’ Leys while they’re at it. #TheArchers

So how would a mobile shop work in a single village? Does she pull up outside and ask if you want to buy owt? Do you summon her on an app? Will it be parked up somewhere? 🤔 #TheArchers

Amber’s Dad sounds a bit stereotypical. #TheArchers

Ruth has turned into a lunatic. Has she been kicked in the head by a cow? I think we should be told. #TheArchers

if you’re wondering what TV & radio would look like without the bbc if the right had its way, picture the state of our privatised rivers & seas, but instead it’s raw sewage pumped into your telly & speakers

They’ve blown the buffet on another outside broadcast. No wonder it’s all Emily and cows lately.

They always go a bit peculiar when they go beyond the by-pass so this does not augur well. #TheArchers

If no-one knew him, presumably he didn’t go to the church, so surely straight to the crem? 🤷‍♂️ #TheArchers

Mick’s a retired roadie with a personal hygiene problem. What’s he considered perfect for? #TheArchers

And now the creep’s spoken up after the event, having listened from a side chapel (how big is that village church, btw?) Hopeless. #TheArchers
That was the sound of the creepy vicar sitting on a fence on the subject of [checks notes] forgiveness. He might as well go back to sitting at home. #TheArchers

Is that cowboy still dragging out the damp proofing at the shop? Either he’s having a right laugh, or there’s a clandestine eviction underway. #TheArchers

I am not having Lizzie Dripping as Edina Monsoon. That’s it. #TheArchers

Huntingdon - This comment from Simon Calder is worth repeating.

My thoughts with all involved

While the whole thing about these people suddenly appearing is absurd, has anyone managed to triangulate Esme‘s age?

Wasn’t Mulligan described as old, and her life elsewhere seems long established, so 50s?

Yet now the Brookfield kids are hanging round her eyeing their prospects. 🤷‍♂️ #TheArchers

When’s the last time Lizbeth was heard? Had she got laryngitis, or is she another one under the Vicarage patio and everyone sworn to omertà? #TheArchers

Have they mentioned who the landowner is at Mulligan’s farm? #TheArchers

LoLox seems to switch between being a major entertainment venue and somewhere run fairly single handedly by an occasionally frazzled Lizbeth.

Does it have any staff who might resolve the chocolate issue without Vince having to nip out from his slaughterhouse? #TheArchers

I wonder if Amber was intended to be a short lived character so was cast short term, but they decided to go permanent but that needed a recast. #TheArchers

I don't know who to credit this image to, but anyway, they got the price wrong.
