Is anyone else an Archers fan?

Recommended Posts

I was clearly middle-aged before my time as I've been a fan of The Archers on Radio 4 since I was a teenager! 8)

 

On their website, they have a section called "Fantasy Archers" where fans can post their own parodies or alternative storylines. Its usually completely surreal but very funny.

 

The latest one to go up is the world as seen by one of Betty's chickens (though I guess they are Mike's chickens since Betty died.... :roll: ). Here is the link:

Are there any other Archers fans out there? :?:

Ooh yes, I like the Archers. I remember hearing the theme tune all round the caravan parks when holidaying as a child (of course, in those days we only had the radio to entertain us in a caravan!). I like to listen to the omnibus, or (when I'm not at work), catch the 2 o'clock session with a cup of tea before the children come home from school.

 

It can be a bit alarming when you find yourself doing the things your parents did, can't it!!! :lol:

Oooh, you're so right Linda! I listen to the 7 o'clock slot most nights. I'm either just getting in from work, or I've just put my DD to bed, depending on what day it is. Even hearing the theme tune reminds me of my mother!! :roll:

 

Richard T - I think Peggy's eager to sell Grey Gables quickly because of Jack's deteriorating health.

 

Another way I often listen is to catch up with episodes on 'play again' when I am on the Omlet frum - multi-tasking you see!! :wink:
