Mourning the loss of those eponymous characters, the Gills, we’ve grown to recognise and love. What emotive dialogue they’ve all contributed! #TheArchers

So as I see it, Alice is the key to bringing Lills round. I think Alice will ultimately come round to the idea of George’s redemption - though it’ll take a few weeks #TheArchers

Georrge’s flare up when he learned that his mufti clothes had gone AWOL showed us he still has a temper and which Ambrr will soon be in the receiving end of. It’s going to be a terrible shock for the poor girl. He may have gained some muscle mass in the gym but no humility in a yurt #TheArchers

Let us all pray for little Bartleby. Pray for his life, pray for his onward journey - and pray so that Georrrge reaches him before he trots down the track to Mince’s gates #TheArchers

I’m afraid I lost it a bit when I thought of one flower from the grave of one parent, placed onto that of another. Anyway! *clears throat, dabs eyes* all together and composed again now. Pfff. #TheArchers

According to Emmur (Freud this time), both actor Graham Seed (Nigel) and young Freddie Pargeter discovered that decades apart, they’ve had the same lines to say - and also that they eerily look alike too #TheArchers

Semi-serious question: Could Amber be the answer to the cricket team’s losing streak? Tell her she can style herself in white with designer teapots and she’d be up for it #TheArchers

I’m not sure if I should be commenting on what I think are a series of lapses in Lynda’s memory. A bit late now to retract #TheArchers

Martin is opening up and softening before our very eyes, just as Justin was once the hardened corporate robot who only surfaced when super-serious business was in the script. Before, Martin was a BL bore who sneered and antagonised all - but who now confides in Jazzer, the Berrow slave #TheArchers

Oh, I did enjoy tonight’s #TheArchers while slogging down the M6. Amber’s backstory is going to keep us amused for months before the big day. And in true soap tradition, the denouement will be when (Alan?) asks if anyone has reason ..

Asking for a friend: How much more of his sentence does George have to serve? Out early for good behaviour rather than sound judgement when it comes to - ahem, ‘car park’ Amber #TheArchers

Doing admin at home this morning but could barely concentrate because of #TheArchers podcast from Hay, the one with Ben and Ruth, Keri and the sound effects woman. And THEN they drop the bombshell that real-Ruth is married to real-Matt! Still reeling! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Rather than keeling over, I was convinced that Father Ted was going to grope Kate non-spiritually last night. But would she have noticed? #TheArchers
