Nope. Still can’t get used to the warped timing of the parallel universe that is Ambridge Extra.
Kathy didn’t know that Jamie had a girlfriend, whereas in last night’s proper Archers she’s bumped into them.
Then later, Jamie’s moaning because he and Natalie had just bumped into Natalie.
Very confusing indeed
Just good friends?
Paulie (Alice and Chas’ flatmate) and his girlfriend Brooke are chatting about exactly just how friendly they reckon Chas and Alice actually are.
[Brooke] “Is the head board banging?”
Brooke later corners Chas to try and get the intel.
At first Chas is fairly honest:
[Chas] “Alice? She’s like a sister to me”
[Brooke] “I’ve seen the way she looks at you”
Then, pushed by Brooke, he starts revealing what he (and only he) sees as happening between him and Alice.
[Chas] “We do like each other, okay. It’s complicated … I think Alice wants to prove something, to have the perfect marriage”
Chas’ theory is that because Alice had to suffer Brian and Jennifer’s marriage problems (Brian’s wanderings), she married the boy next door because he was “safe and boring” and
[Chas] “she can play Wendy houses with him”
So Chas reckons Alice is just play pretending with Chris, and (I’m assuming) is actually slowly coming round to the fact that she really wants Chas.
Trouble is, Chas seems unhinged enough to wreak havoc before Alice wakes up to how much of an ar*e he really is.
[Brooke] “She might be hitched but it’s those two who act like they’re married”
Aye – but it’s a marriage where the wife does what she’s told without realising she is being told what to do, and where the husband is a bit of a nutter …
Alice’s ring broke?
Is that what Paulie said?
What on earth was she doing?
Kirsty and Rhys on a date, round 2
This time, Rhys is on Kristy’s turf. And it’s making him chilly.
[Rhys] “It’s normally the bloke who has to give his coat”
After seeing one young snipe, Rhys is delighted to think they’re about to head to The Bull. But is then disappointed that Kirsty is just moving them to the bird hide.
They see a Reed Warbler.
Rhys tries to use the cold as an excuse to get cuddly with Kirsty
[Rhys] “Isn’t that what Ray Mears would do … share body heat”
But play is interrupted by a Kingfisher. And a rather unenthusiastic Kirsty (also seemed Rhys wasn’t that interested either – just doing what he though was expected).
As they’re leaving, they both admit that they’re not exactly suited.
[Rhys] “We make a fine couple don’t we …these dates, they’ve been a disaster”
[Kirsty] “Yeah, yeah they have”
So mates it is.
But not before they exact revenge … Fallon best beware!
Lost your words, Chas?
Well, that was a pleasure to hear someone get the better of Chas.
Chas had gone round to poor Reggie’s to try and squeeze money out of him.
[Reggie] “The things is. There’s someone I want you to meet. Lesley, my brother.”
(Chas starts to snigger that Lesley is a bloke …)
[Lesley] “What? You think that’s funny? I don’t find you very funny. I hear you’ve been giving my little brother hassle over a loan. Maybe you’d like to discuss it with me”
(Chas starting muttering and stuttering. Lesley must be a big bloke …)
Lesley gets the measure of Chas quickly:
[Lesley] “… some trumped up little posh boy playing the hard man …”
And sends Chas off without any more.
Chas did make a wee bit of an effort to appear threatening to Reggie at the end, but hopefully Lesley will be there to gently persuade him to leave again next time …
