Does anyone else listen to this everyday story of country folk?

Mogs

not since television was invented

Sometimes by default but never by design.

I do - but NOT EVERY DAY. Honestly ! It was better when Walter Gabriel was still alive.

I've heard an entire blasting of it, once.

It's utterly criminal that shit like that can be broadcast.

If Scamp feels like that, I think I will sign up with the Archers Fan Club.

Walter Gabriel? You must be old. I remember Nelson Gabriel.



Scamp- It's far better than miserable plebian tripe like Eastenders or Corrie

Please! - I have listenend every day to the Archers since I was 4 years old! Way before the days of Television, when it was transmitted on the BBC Home Service (Before it became Radio 4 in 1967)

We are also coming-up for the Doctor Who 50th Aniversary later this year, and yes I did hide behind the sofa!

The aforementioned shows (by Meow) have been on for donkeys years...but it doesn't make them good.

When I require an Opinion I will give you one!

Exactly, Eastenders & Corrie are shite

scrubbedexpat141

Apparently so.

Miss Anne Thrope

But Corrie used to be good when Annie Walker and Bet Lynch and Albert Tatlock and Stan and Hilda Ogden and, ahem, Ena Sharples were on it...absolutely unmissable.

When that nice Mr Macmillan were at Noomber 10, it were right good.

I didnt think of this (Idiot!) I used to like listening to the Archers on my way home from work in the UK. If i happened to be travelling at that time. I guess here it would make for nice bed time listening. I have an internet radio for just such a purpose.
