Jude’s uncle is going to hospital.
Does that sound like a wee white lie, or not?
Considering he’s more concerned about his first coffee of the morning, rather than wishing Pip could luck with the job hunt. That’ll help pay for the trip. Which he seemingly should want her to go on (according to Pip).
Do we detect that Jude would rather avoid the conference/confrontation with David and Ruth?
No surprises these, I suppose, and Pip (as per) is utterly oblivious to Jude’s lukewarm attitude.
So, as Pip plans to show her parents just:
“how serious we are”
Jude’s started digging his escape tunnel.
One mug … *sniff*
I’ve not been that upset over Sid’s death, but tonight had a very poignant moment.
So simple. Jolene’s making tea, and automatically starts to ask Sid if he wants one.
Then she realises she’ll only ever need one mug.
Oh so sad.
Where was Jazzer to wave Harry goodbye?
It’s not like Jazzer to miss Harry moving out of the Bull.
Surely a great opportunity to jeer, take the mick, make sure he didn’t leave anything behind …
Then again, we all missed Harry moving out.
Bit of a damp squib?
Pip up for auction
While we’re all been thinking of ways to get rid of Jude and Pip, we were missing a trick.
Auction sites!
“Two healthy ‘young’ people, under the age of 30 (we think), one willing to work hard, the other might be able to fix your website. If he can be bothered. Both house trained and partially educated.”
That must be worth at least a reserve of a few pounds.
Of course, it’s only a matter of time before David and Ruth notice that Pip’s sold jewellery that they gave her for Christmas.
Queue shouting argument.
Hurrah! It’s Lynda!
Lovely to have Lynda back.
I eve did a wee ‘whoop’ when she launched back into the-Ambridge-we-can-hear with:
“It makes such a difference, Robert - being able to enjoy lunch al fresco”
And it wouldn’t be fair to not also welcome back Robert. Poor man gets sidelined at the best of times …
“She must have had some kind of gift. She saw Eddie a mile off”
So Felpersham Fox turned out to be “Felpersham Lead Balloon”.
Eddie loses his money, and Mystic Jodie gets away with a gallon of cider plus free camping.
Not so bad after all. Clarrie might only fall out with Eddie for a few days, rather than weeks!
Do I sense an Agatha Christie homage?
There has been recent the talk of a ‘big’ happening in January 2011 – rumoured to be a murder (which I personally think is very remiss of the BBC. If they know an Ambridge resident is going to be murdered, surely they should put a stop to it. Aiding and abetting?).
But, Lynda and Robert were talking about staging a ‘whodunit trail’ at the village fair.
Seemingly, at another village fair, the
“body by the lake created a huge sensation”
and there was also some sort of
“business by the boat house”
Surely that’s the plot line of Dead Man’s Folly by Agatha Christie?
Only, they’d better beware – in Dead Man’s Folly, the girl cast as the murder victim is found to have actually been murdered for real.
Will the Ambridge murdered take their chance to strike early?
Jokes about a new meaning to ‘The Ashes’ aside …
Jolene’s decided to scatter Sid’s ashes on the cricket ground this Sunday.
Interesting that her original list of folks who’d need to be there included herself, Fallon, Jamie and Tony.
But no Kathy.
Fallon had to point out that Jamie would want Kathy and Kenton there.
Will Kenton turn up this time?
Izzy - just tell Pip to ‘do one’
What a horrid little snob Pip is.
I’d forgive her for looking down on a job in a supermarket because of principles about local producers, but Pip simply thinks that kind of work is beneath her.
And to say all she did in front of her ‘friend’ Izzy! Who does work in a supermarket.
Little madam!
It was a different story when Pip first wanted to leave College to join Izzy and co. at the supermarket. Now that Pip thinks she’s going travelling, she’ll only demean herself to work there for a few weeks.
Seriously Izzy. Don’t help Pip get that job. She doesn’t deserve it.
