The Archers Thurs 25th Nov 2010: Pip’s off to visit Uni

The Archers: The day after the night Eddie chucked ‘gloop’ at Sabrina … Pip’s pondering Uni … Deck the Halls still in its planning stage

  • Ambridge is ablaze with talk of Eddie and Sabrina
  • How did Ruth escape the Panto?
  • Should Ruth wear jeans?
  • Only 2 bullocks to slaughter
  • Welcome back Alistair!
  • Does Jill even know what “lame brain” means?
  • Nigel brings Bavaria to Borchester
  • Elizabeth’s after penniless students
  • No Joe Grundy at Deck the Halls
  • I can’t believe that worked for Jazzer!



Ambridge is ablaze with talk of Eddie and Sabrina

[David] “Sabrina gave Eddie a right old whack round the chops”

[David] “Lynda came over all Alan Sugar .. she fired him on the spot”
The biggest question of all: how do you get the gloop out of a sequined top?


How did Ruth escape the Panto?

Maybe Ruth has too strong a ‘regional’ accent to slot into the Panto, but she does seem to be one of the few residents to have escaped Lynda’s attentions.

But now that Eddie has been fired, Lynda’s going to be desperate.

[David] “Be careful if she descends on you with that determined look in her eye”


Should Ruth wear jeans?

I don’t know – Ruth gets a chance for a day out, and still she doesn’t grab the chance to live a little.

Thought it’s only accompanying Pip to an open day at Felpersham Uni, it’s still a day off the farm.

Go on Ruth. Slap a frock on.



Only 2 bullocks to slaughter

Cripes – there really is a lot of work Pip can do to help Brookfield become a more profitable farm.

They only need to slaughter two bullocks to fulfil their Christmas orders.

Pip’s probably going to do an agriculture with farm business management course. All she needs to do is get 2 B’s and a C.

Easy enough. ???????

After pushing Pip to College – then pushing her to go to Uni – it looks like Ruth is now going to push Pip to study a bit further away from home.

So that she can “step onto independence”.

True enough.

But David thinks it’d be less expensive and can also get into helping makes decisions at Brookfield if she stayed closer.

Tricky.

I’m still keeping my eye on young Josh …


Welcome back Alistair!

Not sure where you’ve been (or Shula … or Jim, for that matter), but nice to hear you again.

But it’s all a go-go for you.

First to look at a Brookfield cow, then onto Lower Loxley to look at a lame shire horse.

Maybe he should pop up again when he’s less busy, as his brain doesn’t seem to be engaged.

Why on earth did he tell Nigel that Daniel isn’t a good skater when Daniel’s trying for a job at Nigel’s skating rink?

Bad Alistair. Bad, bad, bad!


Does Jill even know what “lame brain” means?

I doubt it, let alone think it of her granddaughter.


Nigel brings Bavaria to Borchester

Wow! Lower Loxley’s Deck the Halls sounds quite marvellous this year.



Elizabeth’s after penniless students

Is Nigel not performing as he should?

(just jesting – Elizabeth’s only after students to work at Deck the Halls).


No Joe Grundy at Deck the Halls

What a travesty!

Joe has been replaced by a lantern maker.

*Sniff*

That doesn’t sound half the fun.


I can’t believe that worked for Jazzer!

David’s retelling the tale that Harry got a text from Jazzer (…keeping up?) saying that he had “one satisfied customer”.

Ah come one! What’s Jazzer’s real secret?!?
