The Archers

Please don’t tell me they’re thinking of putting Chelsey and Ben together romantically, just no. It’s good they’ve moved on and are friends but can we just leave it there. If it does happen no doubt Vince Casey and David Archer will have an actual duel on the village green, a proper one, one of them actually dies 🙄

How old are Ed and Emma supposed to be - about 40? I just don't buy the storyline that Emma would or could suddenly become a professional tree surgeon, given her age and previous lifestyle.

Well quite. And for me the least believable bit of this storyline was that she literally helped Ed out with his chainsaw once for about 5 minutes and then decided she wanted to be a tree surgeon. And what about her wanting to better herself academically? Is that storyline now redundant?

I find it believable. 40 really isn’t that old and she doesn’t have a career to speak of. They were getting nowhere. I’d love it to actually work out for them. Get v bored of the Grundy scrimping by story lines.

Same, perhaps it's because I work in healthcare and have worked with/trained with lots of people who made a huge change in later life (one lady on my course had been a university lecturer for 20 years before deciding she wanted to move into healthcare at 49).
 
I don’t find the career change hard to believe. I do find it hard to believe that they’d find the time for it, when they until very recently have both had to work every hour available to them across multiple jobs to make ends meet, and now suddenly Emma’s jacked in the pub and they have time to go off on courses and lift weights in the gym because they might get some bookings… or they might not. I know they’ve had cash from Will to start the company but surely that doesn’t cover their living expenses that they were struggling to cope with.

Wtf is going on with the preechy writing at the moment?? My favourite writers must be on holiday and gearing up for detective chris saving Alice.

First the foraging overload and now the workplace bullying. As if interfering in Freddie’s problem would have anything but negative consequences. All so preechy and forced.

I chuckled a bit at the start of the month where we had multiple characters talking about making sure they remembered to vote, don't forget your ID, the polling stations are still open etc.

Getting a bit bored atm, especially with all the breadcrumbing of George being found out but not actually getting any pay off.

Is The Archers too lovely for a dramatic top of a building style confession from George to Uncle Chris before he jumps off it? That's my current dream.

God, that Paul is an odious drama queen. An insufferable character not helped by pretty ropey acting.

Isn’t he just, someone should tell him his villain of piece comments from under his breath come out crystal clear over the airways 😉
Otherwise Chelsea has concluded that George has erectile problems, hence his recent anxiety, she has promised she won’t tell anyone (about what methinks) .. what can go wrong 😳😉
