Fascinating isn't it! I suspect he'll lose his temper under cross examination. I doubt he likes the idea of a female barrister, except the ones who make his coffee.

 

HaHa geddit?  The old ones are the best.

 

Nice one GJ I'm sure he doesn't , but I am praying that the SWs will give us a happy ending ....but somehow I can't see it happening And I can see Tony and Tom getting thrown out of court  

Way to go Kirsty The judge will probably tell the jury to ignore , but once heard it can't be forgotten I thought the Henry ( Henwy) section was badly done though ....it added nowt and told us nothing !!

What an episode tonight At last Helen has got her act together  

Finally caught up. Yes! Everyone was pleased at Chez Joe.

Ditto GJ But methinks it won't be plain sailing when it comes to the verdict  

It's looking a bit more positive.

I know what you mean Baz. The Jury may go against the evidence dare I say, in a bold salute to the Brexit vote!

I am hoping that the judge allows Jess's testimony ....and that it supports Helen's .

We are enjoying this. It took an unusual turn last night.

Yes, of the about  7k members on the Addicts site I belong to, none of us had predicted that turn of events I just hope it's a red herring and they don't decide on a retrial !! I'm not sure my nerves will stand it !! What do you think the hour long (evening ) edition will comprise of GJ ? 

And with a father like Bruce it's not surprising Titchynob has turned out like he has ....apples and trees springs to mind  

The Sunday episode looks like it's going to be great ....Nigel Havers and * star cast * playing the jury .....even the actor who was Nigel is going to be in it  

Sorry! I tend not to participate until I'm up to date which I am now!

If Helen gets off will Rob then be prosecuted?

I would like to think so Amythist .....but I can't see it somehow ....there is no physical evidence ....I think the best we can hope for is his complete humiliation .....and expulsion from the village ....and of course Susan will have known it all along  

Yayyy .....to parody a famous gentleman ....the battle for Helen is over , the battle for Henry and Myson begins  

Just finished listening. Bit of a chilling end to it all.

I know I'm in the minority but I thought that to be a great piece of radio drama.

I was pleased with the outcome GJ ....but felt they wasted the hour TBH . The result came out of the blue .....I wanted to hear more of the reasoned arguments behind their eventual decision  , rather than some of the stereotypical characterisation ( Catherine Tate for example  at times sounded exactly like her Donna Noble character out of Dr Who :laugh and garbled interactions we heard .  Having said that the outcome has certainly opened up a can or worms re Rob , which will obviously run and run

Sadly it looks like the battle for custody will begin. I'm still hoping Stephan will emerge and Rob's part in the flood will be exposed, and then he will be burnt on the 5th of November on the village green bonfire.

If only ! Mind you , I loved Pat shutting the door in his face tonight Although I am concerned that some daft just judge might give him custody

Yes I'm waiting to hear what Susan has to say And the fallout for Ian and Adam  

Mrs Jer said that when you have a good character like Rob you don't let them go that easily! The Floods, the animal poisoning, the hen house and why FB people want their old Archers back are still to be explained.

TBH I will be glad to get back to*the everyday story of country folk* GJ So many unfinished storylines have been sacrificed for the Helen/Rob story .....although it's obviously going to run and run I am hoping that once the custody bit is over it will be put on the back burner fir a while !

Fantastic result tonight ....I was grinning from ear to ear ,

It was great result.....all we need now is that the rest of Rob's dastardly acts get out and he goes to jail

Yes  And I am waiting to hear Susan's take on him now ....although of course she * always knew he was a wrong 'un* Wonder if Justin will withdraw his job offer
