Annette’s Abortion

And there was me thinking Helen had found a used condom in the bin (which would have been *eugh* and also a bit disturbing considering it is a fair while since Leon seduced Annette).

Annette’s not proving the most popular of new residents, but you do have to feel for the wee lass. The morals of sleeping with one’s landlady/friend/pseudo-mother boyfriend aside, Ambridge is proving to be as destructive to her as it was for her father.

She’s making a tough decision – only question is whether Helen will try and stop her.

We all knew there’d be some sort of pregnancy coming up – but, with Helen’s babysitting efforts for Will & Nic, it seemed like she’d be the one. Could Annette change her mind so that Helen can adopt?


Gardner Matt

Enjoying Matt as a bit more of a laid back chappy (the constant shouting was getting a bit much), but finding it hard to reconcile his new attitude to others (“they never stood a chance”) with the Tiger that we know and love. Does a few weeks in prison really change someone round that much?

Either way – I hope Lillian does get her tomatoes.

Susan Carter: the Alan Sugar of village shop retail

I do think that there is snobbery afoot with Susan not being asked onto the village shop committee, but does Susan also not realise that she’s not entirely the retail mogul that she imagines?

After all, the village shop committee is happening because the shop was making a loss. And who was the manager ….?
