Doesn't a baby have to have a name to be registered? #TheArchers

#TheArchers omnibus probably made more sense than listening during the week, when the UK wasn't yet beset with weather!

Where are the Aldridge clan in all this? #TheArchers

Careful with you ilhamdullillah-ing, Zeinab, lest Carpet refer you to PREVENT. #TheArchers

The last thing we need is Dopey Dayveed doing his Brian Blessed impression. #TheArchers

Between the creme brulee and tartes taking, Lizbuff hasn't STOPPED! #TheArchers

Elizabeth made the creme brulee and tarte tatin?! #TheArchers

This is Shaya, a Persian leopard rescued from poachers who tried to sell her on the black market. With gentle care at a wildlife rehab centre, she's only just learning to trust again. Only 1,000–1,200 remain in the wild, mostly in Iran 🐆

There was a fucking hole in our planet’s *atmosphere* Like a legit, no joke, “this will unravel our entire ecosystem” hole in the world, and then we fixed it by working together across national and political lines As a species we decided, “we will survive” Let’s do that some more

There were 13 people in the hotel restaurant, so the restaurant manager borrowed a teddy from our merch cabinet to be the 14th diner. He used to work on ships - apparently, 13 diners is unlucky.

60 years ago today 144 people died in the Welsh village of Aberfan when a colliery spoil tip collapsed onto them. 109 of those were children attending the village school. A tragedy that broke hearts, which remain broken now. The strength and courage shown by that community is an example to us all.

Hasn't the poor mite been registered yet? FFS! #TheArchers

Someone saying that they grew up watching #GBBO makes me feel ancient!

Paul needs to hit the gym. Well, you all comment on Nigella's appearance... #GBBO

I really like him too. Even the way he sometimes looks like he's being held there against his will. #GBBO

Where are Zainab and Carpet? #TheArchers

"The phenomenon of settlers stealing livestock with the backing of the army and/or police is one of the most devastating blows Israel inflicts on Palestinian farmers."

Karl Marx "The bourgeoisie of the world, which looks complacently upon the wholesale massacre after battle, is convulsed by horror at the desecration of brick and mortar!" What a quote for the times.

This is so good and among many other things, it’s absolutely delicious that this guy chooses to call himself “Tommy”, because after five minutes of that name being politely repeated to him as he shrinks and transforms into a corn cob it makes him sound like a small child and not an adult.

I'm at work until 11pm, so I missed #TheArchers this evening...

Elizabeth: “If we’re going to pull this off we’re going to need all hands on deck. We need Equity to represent us, the listeners to sign a petition, and every #TheArchers podcast to join the media campaign.”

If only Fweddie had a well-organised, seriously bright, twin sister with amazing customer service skills, and extensive knowledge of his baronial acres... #TheArchers

Get yer brother to do it, Stella; he's much better craic than Dopey 'Me Me Me' Dayveed, as I recall. #TheArchers

A majority of the 635 children held in Israeli prisons in 2025 were put in solitary confinement, usually for between one and two weeks – some up to eight times. 92 per cent had not been sentenced. A third had not even been charged. The world's highest court says Israel is an apartheid state.

#Wordoftheday : hornswoggle - to deceive, dupe, swindle, pull the wool over someone's eyes It's from a Nora Roberts novel, 'Black Hills'; I never get tired of reading her books!

Do Lizzie and Freddy not know anyone who might lend them a bobbo or two for Pip and Stella's wedding? Someone in the family, perhaps?! #TheArchers

So, at the end of August I had colorectal surgery. My recovery has gone really well (no stoma, thank goodness), and I'm doing a managed return to work, driving, and taking Pilates classes. But today, I swam. In a pool. 30 lengths. Yep, NOW I'm back, baby!

I accept the main motive here is that defence spending is really just money laundering, but to a certain degree I'm starting to believe that the Labour Party is ideologically opposed to making anyone's lives better, even if it cost them nothing.

This summer: Thousands of deaths from extreme weather. This weekend in the media: What's the point of the Green Party? This morning from the Labour party 👇

We all know Dopey Dayveed loves to be the centre of attention! #TheArchers

Aren't vet prices s'posed to be regulated these days? Or is that just for cats, dogs and bunnies? #TheArchers

"We will never be the same. What has been done to Gaza cannot be undone.Gaza exposed the moral bankruptcy of our world. It has become the moral compass of the world. Yet I believe in the power of the resurrection. The final word does not belong to empire or to evil." www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnM0...
