The Archers, pretend glass artist, allotment weeder, climbed career ladder until I fell off, champagne socialist, mostly drunk, wish I'd stuck at archeology and not chased girls.. I am fun at parties but not worth taking home

Did Rev Alan Frank murder Carol Tregorran? Motive: desperate for money Evidence: 1st attempt in graveyard; last person to see her; it’s #TheArchers Circumstantial: stressed & angry. Shouted at Henry. Lied to Anna. He got access on line banking ..did he transfer the money? GUILTY!

Once Borsetshire’s finest have got on the case it’ll be an open and shut case. But maybe you’re right … he had been acting strangely ….angry, desperate and manipulative. I’m now convinced. Alan in the graveyard with hemlock!

Poor Carol. They keep her away from speaking parts for 50years and as soon as she gets a regular slot she is murdered in the graveyard…. Probably by the Rev Frank…motive £6k #TheArchers

I think Carol will be rejoicing in the chaos she has left. Her final act. #TheArchers

With so much misery in this world why are #TheArchers inflicting us with this Lilly-Burns torture?

For anyone who’s had a baby … day3 was not the day that the crying sent me mad … it was still the fascinating days! It was at least day4 #TheArchers

#TheArchers SL meeting: Ed: we’ve got a romantic SL for you Lilly L: oh great. Someone my own age this time? Ed: No. But with a malodorous northern accent who is a bit nerdy L: Ooh! Is it Guy Garvey? Ed: Almost

Could Lilly sue #TheArchers for constructive dismissal? Forcing this ridiculous SL on her with a completely ridiculous man

Isn’t there a more suitable older man in #TheArchers for Lilly? Brian? Or Martin Gibson?

After a bleak few months. Including terribles SL’s even by #TheArchers standards. That was a great episode. My mood is lifted. thank you SW’s

So if Adam is not working, who's actually working on Home Farm?

Herbie Potts @herbiepotts.bsky.social · 11/05/2026
I'm a bit confused what Adam is doing jobwise. Isn't he working at Home Farm? Yet he is a farmer who can work from home? #TheArchers

Oh. I missed one… “We agreed to let fate take it’s chance” = Eric doesn’t like wearing condoms

Herbie Potts @herbiepotts.bsky.social · 28/04/2026
Poor Crusty. Another bad man. “I’m here for you” = but not there with you. Too busy being away from you “Whatever you need just say” = I can’t be arsed to think of what you might need “Congratulations” = you’re on your own Not sure we’ll see Eric again except to break up. #TheArchers

Is menopause in Liverpool too?

Herbie Potts @herbiepotts.bsky.social · 21/04/2026
Hold on. I’m not much good at this stuff. But… Crusty was in Liverpool with Eric the lover only last week? How late can she be? A couple of hours? #TheArchers

Herbie Potts @herbiepotts.bsky.social · 21/04/2026
Crusty &Eric look like they’re victims of Trumps war in the Middle East. There’s a shortage of condoms - no lubricants apparently. They’re all stuck in the Strait of Hummus. #TheArchers

When Helen says “she finished with Dane (or Dale?)” does she actually mean that #TheArchers are done with Dale or Dwane? And we’ll never hear him again

Another contrived episode that drops my mood for the week. 1.Chris must know Lottie. He picks up the brat and goes to parents evenings. 2.Chris must have asked himself if his drinking contributed to Alice’s drinking before 3.Rex would never have gone to Alice’s no matter how drunk #TheArchers

The more this Brine SL goes on, the more I think he’s going to die soon. He’s given Lil the truth. For her to wrestle with after he’s gone. The farm is set up for an almighty inheritance row He owes George money He owes Miranda an explanation It’s all pointing one way #TheArchers

I imagine Rex smells damp and musty….. living on that barge. This probably means that Alice now also smells …. Rex is right that Alice is out of his league but he has managed to demote her a few leagues .. a bit like Spurs dropping to the National league #TheArchers

Hasn’t Lillian told anyone about Rauiri’s secret yet? It’s been a day already - maybe by Friday #TheArchers

I hate fish pie too… But every-time someone cooks it, I love it. I think there must be a childhood trauma involving fish pie that only a session with Zack Polanski can resolve.

I’ve been on dates like Chris The ones where you pretend to friends that you’re going on a date when really you’re Billy no mates at the movies or a pub. #TheArchers

As the world teeters on the edge of oblivion…. #TheArchers choose a budgie SL as their Friday night show-stopper.

last time George went to market and met a "character", he came back with some magic beans.. I mean turkey poults that weren't.... So these sheep are likely to be goats or pigs #TheArchers

No I don’t think so. Are you thinking inheritance or needing love?

Miranda is a great character. But she sounds exactly like the Chair of a resident association that makes my Charity Chair life hell. Nevertheless, once I shake that off, Miranda is a good one…. Although I would like to see her with an evil SL like my Resident Assoc nemesis! #TheArchers

Is Rex still living on his mould house boat? And driving a taxi? And Brine takes credit for setting Alice up for that?! And he was the man who famously called Chris “a starter marriage”! #TheArchers

Good to have some comedy that young people seem to find funny on the BBC half hour before #TheArchers ….. …. I even found some of it funny!

Justin is going to give Chelsea some "business mentoring".... It's the equivalent of going onto Dragons Den and coming away with Touker Suleyman #TheArchers

Brian suggesting money to fund it, is another sign of Brian being out of touch & losing it. (As you say) I feel that Brian will be leaving us soon the way the SL’s are going. However it wouldn’t be a bad idea for George to keep the drone business….its not as if drones are going out of fashion….

Herbie Potts @herbiepotts.bsky.social · 20/03/2026
What on earth is Brian playing at? It's like a reverse blackmail. Brian is blackmailing himself to pay George to steer clear of Rauiri. Quite ridiculous and the episode started so well. #TheArchers

ok. I have to admit it. I like some of the lines George has. To Brian... "I may have made mistakes and screwed up but I am young. What's your excuse?" #TheArchers
