For all you Archers fans.........

You could include famous non speakers from the past like Tom Forrests wife (can't recall her name and won't look it up) hang on, wasn't it Prue?
You could be on to something there. Yes, it was Pru Forrest married to Tom. There's plenty of other 'silents' to fill up the Friday slot and maybe we could also find out what's happened to Kathy and Jamie Perks' ability to speak, Alan and Usha Franks too.

Kathy? Has she been accounted for since The Great Kaboom of Grey Gables?

Is Jamie still friends with Dorothy?

Alan is out tending to his 5 or 6 other parishes. Darrington is the most normal. Dangerous, but normal.

Yes, we do need to know!

Meriel Archer, Titcombe, Mike Tucker, Brenda Tucker, I might go on.........

Talking of voices, I always liked those of Nelson and Walter Gabriel.

We had better be a bit careful here though, some others might accuse us of being a little sad.

Sad? How very dare they? ?

Let's think: Meriel, in Aus? Moike, in Birmingham with wife and daughter, Bethany. Brenda, nottaclue.

I quite liked Phil's voice. Now, is there a voice that would be in the favourite category at the moment :unsure:

Sad? Surely not, there are worse things than an Archers addiction.

I'd like to know where Dr Locke's got to. He'd have been just the manly shoulder for Lizzie Pargetter when she had her miraculously short-lived depression.

Will Grundy is also conspicuous by his absence. Last I remember he went to Andrew's for Christmas. Maybe he's decided he likes having clean boots and try being be a townie.

Hmmmm. All this might mean I'll have to stop listening against.

Less and less rural realism nowadays since Graham Harvey got axed as agricultural adviser. Sad the guardian influences and BBC environmentalism dominates the script writing with a token lambing live lecture from Pip on delivering lamb....as a shepherd and farmer I would lamb 9 out of 10 ewes on one leg cos getting a second leg is very rarely achievable in real life.

As the Archers was originally developed as an educational drama, you would think it an ideal tool to inform the public on current and changing Covid precautions. :scratchhead:
