The Archers, Natasha's private school push
Somehow Kate seems to be being a faaar better friend to Kirsty about this pregnancy than Helen is!! And somehow I’m surprised!! #TheArchers
I'm not, really. There's a fundamental warmth to Kate under all the flaky woo-woo. #TheArchers
Kate’s particularly fond of newborn babies though, isn’t she? I remember her cooing over Xander when he was a newborn. And we all know about the infamous taxi to Blackpool last year, to see baby Peggy. (Wonder if Jakob’s paid off the credit card bill for that yet?) 😁 #thearchers
I'm not at all surprised. Helen isn't a proper friend to Kirsty, their relationship is totally one-sided. #TheArchers
I was just thinking the same thing #TheArchers
FFS Tom. Just send your favourite to the private school and let the other one survive on their wits. #TheArchers
Are the twins identical? If so, just enrol one and send each one on alternate days. #TheArchers
BEST SOCIAL ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT EVER
I bet they would do that. Therefore ensuring that the contrast between how they turn out, will have Bleetalongers taking sides long after a fair number of us are in the Bleetalong in the sky or the place down below…depending on how we’ve behaved IRL. 😅 #TheArchers
I knew several people my age where siblings (not twins though) were split between state and private schools. I don’t know how it worked out for them. #TheArchers
There are probably wacko funded twin studies available for this very experiment. At 18 they get swapped. #TheÀrchers
My grandfather sent 1 son to private school and told the other 2 that they were not smart enough to be worth the fees. Son who did go became a Dr right enough and the other two did not do so well - but talk about a self fulfilling prophecy and as you can imagine didn’t do much for relationships.
Excellent solution. Do we know if the twins are identical? They could both have a crack at it. #TheArchers
I miss Jimmus. And Alastair, Denise, Joy, Mick, Lizzie, Lily, Vince, Freddie. And even Martin. Why does #TheArchers keep introducing fleeting new characters when they have a cast with great back stories already?
They'll come round again. Two of those on your list are returning in the next 3 weeks. It's always been the same with #TheArchers, though the lengths of disappearances may be getting longer. The more characters, the greater variety of storylines you can plausibly run. Absences are the trade-off
I agree with the point that you're making but... you miss Joy, Mick, and Lily?! Are you ok?? #TheArchers
I echo your thoughts about missing, much loved, cast members. And am also baffled by the giddying number of irrelevant, short lived characters, in whom we are not invested #TheArchers
I've been thinking about your list. Agree with some, but I wouldn't be bothered if we never hear from Mick or Vince again. We all have our own favourite characters & the SWs have to try to keep everyone happy. #TheArchers
Martyn is reappearing soon. #TheArchers
And what about the budgie??!! #TheArchers
