How much was that cheque for? Worth it, to get the little weasel out of Ambridge!

The boy is a complete bounder and cad.That poor Brenda, she spends her life consorting with joke villains invented by some failed melodramatic romantic novelists who have insinuated themselves into the script-writing team.

Well, it takes someone really nasty to make us see Matt Crawford in a good light!

Poor Lillian- where did she go wrong......

Am I alone in finding some of the current storylines a teeeeeensy bit unrealistic?

I will make an exception to my rule of "Never Trust an Archer" in this case.

Lillian has shown great loyalty to her lover. Well done Lillian. James is clearly a pillock and does not deserve such a sexy and fun-loving mother. (Get that hot-tub warmed up Lillian!)

Aside - I once met an actor called Edward Kelsey in Sheffield after a one-off play by Berlie Doherty based on the life of Sam Wild who was a major in the International Brigade in Spain.

Sat in the pub afterwards we chatted about this and that - and as he left to go back to his cottage in the Lake District I asked his name.

As he car drove off into the sunset I went "Joe Grundy" too late at the top of my voice. Everyone else thought I had finally flipped.

Sat next to my hero since boyhood and never realised.

Surely you'd have recognised the voice?

I find it very disconcerting when members of the Archers turn up in other plays - especially on television when they don't look anything like the real ones in my head.
