The theme tune (Barwick Green, I think) may be addictive because it sounds as if it could be a Cotswold Morris tune, even though I know it was specially composed. The lumpty (as opposed to dum-ti-dum-ti-dum-ti-dum) sounds like a West Country variant.

Debbie appears to be in denial. She keeps going on about how much she loves her husband Simon despite his mobile phone bill to Brenda Tucker(silly Debbie, she should have known after the original Simon Gerard debacle, not to mention the Simon Pemberton fiasco, that Simons in Ambridge are not to be trusted). Even while agonising over Simon G to her cousin Elizabeth, she has omitted to mention that Simon fingered Debbie's evil stepfather Brian as the father of Siobhan's baby (just for once, Simon was telling the truth, but as was pointed out earlier in this thread, he's such a rat that no-one will be inclined to believe him).

Meanwhile, little Phoebe has both Debbie and Brenda as aunts and Kate Aldridge as her mother.

There, that should cure you from listening for years and years and years....
