Jamie doesn’t use a plate for his bacon sarnie
And rushes out without a by or leave to Fallon.
Well, I never!
Rhys and Kirsty … Game On
Rhys and Kirsty, after admitting to each other that there is no heart-flutterings between them. Have decided to get their own back on the rather bizarre Fallon (why oh why was she so determined to get them together?).
So looks like the plan is to pretend that Rhys is smitten.
[Rhys] “She’s amazing … I never knew a girl like her … she’s gorgeous, she’s funny, she’s smart … she’s got the most spectacular … There is nothing more riveting than sitting for hours watching a heron waiting for his prey .. .especially if you watch it in a hide … they can be very private places … if you know what I mean … Kirsty Miller has fired arrows straight through my heart”
Rhys later calls Kirsty to tell her he’s hooked Fallon into believing him.
[Rhys] “I can hardly keep my face straight. Touch you!”
(the inference is – as if I would! And Kirsty agrees likewise).
So they reckon it’s “Game on”, wind up Fallon time.
Jamie can spot a softening up when it happens
Jamie is quite perturbed that Jolene has cut his hours back by half, so now he only works a Sunday.
He even noticed Jolene tactics of trying to make it (somehow) less painful with a bacon sandwich.
[Jolene] “She gave me a bacon sandwich to soften me up”
He reckons it’s all Kathy’s fault. So expect a bit more shouting to come …
Problem is – without the cash, how is Jamie going to buy a present for Natalie?
(and I will admit that I really could care less)
Jackie Parker has disappeared
Jackie is the student who owed Chas money. She’s seemingly done a runner.
Alice has heard about it from some of her Uni mates, and tells Chas.
He first just seems angry that he might not see his money.
Then, Chas seemed to be a bit nervous.
Was he starting to feel guilt about the reality of what he does to folks he lends money to? That he causes them stress, worry, does something so horrible to them that they have to run away. In Jackie’s case, she’s run before she could get her degree.
Or, is he more worried about Alice now finding out what he’s been up to?
Frigid kid?
[Marty] “Hey Pip, that’s not a very nice hand gesture”
(Pip has seemingly made a gesture at Steve as he drives by, and makes a bloke-on-a-building-site remark to her)
[Steve] “Is that why you’re going out with my brother then? You don’t like getting interest from a real man.”
[Pip] “No Steve. I’m just not interested in his little brother … get a life”
(Marty starts sniggering)
[Steve] “Shut up Marty. She’s a frigid kid anyway”
What a charmer that Steve is….
It’s called Borchester because …
… it’s boring.
So reckons Marty.
And that’s why I listen to Ambridge Extra. I’ll learning something new every day (!).
Pip drinks cinnamon latte
Oh how young farmers have changed.
Steve and Marty on the nick
While Jamie is off ‘studying’ with Natalie, Steve and Marty steal video games.
How very droll.
Steve reckons Jamie has gone a bit soft for choosing a girl over his mates.
[Steve] “Let Jamie do what he wants. We don’t need him”
Oh, now there’s a happy thought.
If Steve and Marty ‘dump’ Jamie, there might be hope for him after all.
Aw. Spencer can even tell when Pip’s upset
And what’s more, he even cares enough to want her to tell him.
But Pip seems to be an apple fallen close to David’s tree. She won’t tell him.
Ticking time bomb, that whole side of the Archers clan.
When’s a brother not a brother?
When he’s an evil brother-in-law.
Chas in back on the phone to (London) Vince. He has to tell Vince that Jackie has done a runner, so he will be late in paying back the money he loaned from Vince in the first place to loan to Jackie (still with me?).
And the plot thickens.
Vince is a bit perturbed to hear that Chas needs more time to pay him. And mentions that the job he was lining up for Chas in London may not now happen.
Is it a job in the City? As a money collector? A bouncer?
Chas seemingly starts to feel a bit under the cosh.
[Chas] “Please! I’m your brother …”
[Vince] “ … in-law. And how do you think your sister will react when she find out that I’ve lost 16 grand?”
How odd that Chas called his brother-in-law his brother – but odder still that Vince doesn’t seem to give a hoot about his wife’s brother.
Doesn’t seem like quite a nice family at all.
Now Chas has to pay double the interest to Vince, by the end of next week.
And that 16 grand must be the amount Chas loaned to Chris.
Trouble is afoot …
