It's speculation, not a rumour. Nothing wrong with that 🙂 I suspect Angus Imrie was unexpectedly unavailable for recording this evening's episode. However, I also think it's most likely his departure has been brought forward for plot reasons, not because of his unavailability. #TheArchers

"Kenton, can you get us a table?" "I'm not in this one" "Josh, seeing as this episode is all about you, what would you like for your tea?" "I'm not in this one either" #TheArchers

Ruth should have just said "As long as he comes home." Look what happened to poor Johnny, sailed over the rim never to be seen again. #FlatEarth #TheArchers

Come on Justin tell her about the sex stuff! #TheArchers

How am I meant to say this without it seeming like I’m spreading rumour: I wonder if Josh’s actor has already left #TheArchers and that’s why Josh’s departure is being told mostly 2nd hand? I admit I think it’s plausible! Do I sound like I’m spreading rumours???

Quiz Question: “Physician, heal thyself.” Were the final words of which fictional character? A) Blake of Blake’s 7. B) Reverend David Latimer of Ambridge. C) The Eighth Doctor of…The Doctor. Answer at 19:15 #TheArchers

It’s been two years since Lilian and Justin found out about Brian and Miranda. It was at an Easter Ball and Justin was most unhappy! 😀 Friday 22nd March 2024 ⬇️⬇️. Also one of those days Stella failed to talk to Pip about Rosie. #TheArchers

Josh drops a bombshell: He’s hired….Russ Jones to manage his hens. (Best I could think of). #TheArchers

We have a 2 in 1 mystery this week starting at 7:00: Why do we have 3 SWs and who wrote which bits of the week?? What does everyone else make of this? #TheArchers

Hello: Please can I make an inquiry to you. Does anyone have old Radio Times dating back too: NY’s 2000, 2000, 2005, 2006, 2007, and NY’s 2011. I need them for credit hunting! #TheArchers

Dug this out the hedge. Any guesses what it might be? Approx. 30×35cm, looks to be made of iron. No handles. Round bottom, so doesn't sit flat. No drainage holes so not a planter.

The song Tracy was singing was ‘I Am the Am’ by Ceila Sparrow’s brother Reuben. #TheArchers

Have to say that Katie Hims’ writing this week, dialogue-wise, is absolutely brilliant. Totally natural sounding and believable. Particularly between Carol and Anna and cinnamon buns aside lol. #TheArchers

The lines about what Anna is doing now have been cut. She was describing herself doing teaching and consulting along with her love life being a mess. #TheArchers

Remembering Mary Tamm, born this day in 1950.

Remembering Wilfrid Brambell, born this day in 1912.

Happy Birthday William Shatner, born this day in 1931.

Good morning, BlueSky

One of the most disgusting things I've ever read

⚠️ BREAKING: Jury finds Elon Musk defrauded investors by deliberately driving down Twitter's stock price before buying it… So, now what?!

Remembering the late Actor, Hilary Minster (21 March 1944 – 24 November 1999)

Timothy Dalton is 80 today, Happy Birthday Timothy 🎁🎂

Remembering Harry H. Corbett who passed away on this date in 1982 😇🙏

Farscape started 27 years ago today. "Thrown into a distant part of the universe, an Earth astronaut finds himself part of a fugitive alien starship crew."

There’s a bookstore in Buenos Aires called El Ateneo Grand Splendid that’s housed in a former opera house. It’s easily the most spectacular bookstore I’ve ever visited.

Came out of the post office, saw that a guy had cut my saddle bag off my bike and was about to take off with it. I yelled "Please wait my cat's medicine is in there!" He started to run, and this grandma-age lady goes "SHE SAID HER CAT'S MEDICINE IS IN THERE" and WALLOPED him with her grocery bag.

From #TheArchers Podcast: I’ve belatedly realised I’ve been pronouncing the name ‘Hewlett*’ wrong. I thought it was heh-WELL-ett not HUH-wul-UT. I have no idea if I’ve got the emphasising the right way around. *Brian Hewlett (Neil) and Hewlett-Packard (UK IT equipment maker).

The answer is: Cod, for the U-boat crew; The German captain vanted plaice (and no soggy chips); And, of course... Don't tell him, Pike! #TheArchers

This Brian / George tooing and froing is getting interesting. Brian doesn’t realise George has a recording of one of their meetings where Brian incriminated himself. #TheArchers

Interesting that we aren’t looking at George blackmailing but Brian “investing”. #TheArchers

George is a hypocrite. “I don’t try to manipulate people”. 😠 #TheArchers

Evening all. A question now from the realm of classic British comedy. In the Dad's Army episode "The Deadly Attachment" (the one with the U-boat crew), what are the three species of fish mentioned? Answer at 7:15! #TheArchers

Brian tries to cut a deal: It’s a bit late now, Justin’s doing the official handover of the shares today! #TheArchers

The excellent Carol Tregorran storyline in #TheArchers is hard listening at times, so here's a photo from happier times. Carol Grey arrived in Ambridge in 1954, played by Anne Tuson (1926-2015).

Remembering the Actor Brian Wilde Who passed away on this date in 2008 😇🙏

Seriously can we kick the USA out of NATO while this Trump BS is happening? He is a Russian asset. A major Op Sec risk.

I’ve just realised…the song Tracy was singing was ‘I am the Am’ by Ceila Sparrow’s brother Rueben. #TheArchers

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)

Eventually you get to do a Schrödinger'cat cartoon. This one was in Big Issue last week. @bigissue.com

Kangaroos don't mess around.... 😬

The cast of #TheArchers, photographed at the BBC Pebble Mill studio, August 1978. Names of actors and characters in the alt text.

Olivia the Solicitor is played by Emma Amos. This is Emma Amos first trip to Ambridge (to my knowledge anyway). #TheArchers

I’d like to hear if Ambridge residents would remember the nearby Heydon Farm or Bank Farm in addition to Meadow Farm. #TheArchers

Quiz Question: The theme to The Apprentice UK is taken from an adaptation of a Shakespearean play, but which one? A) a film of Macbeth. B) a radio pay of Othello. C) a ballet of Romeo and Juliet. Answer….eventually! #TheArchers

Esme gets an important message: The landlord has said she can keep the farm…for £400 per acre for some reason! #TheArchers
