Is Paul really dead? Would Tracy Horrobin have made such a bad cleaner for Peggy? Plus charming Jim, silly Clarrie – and memories of Zebedee Tring…
Here’s my pick of online listener discussions between 7 – 12 June 2013
Whilst some feel cheated out of a showdown between Matt and Paul, there has been praise for Sunny Ormonde’s portrayal of a distraught Lilian. Listeners say she should be relieved more than upset. And many think it’s not over yet – is Paul really dead? What will happen at the funeral?
@BBCTheArchers I've never been so deeply moved by a performance as that of Sunny Ormonde, her portrayal of Lillian's torment is stellar! (@Drama_King12 on Twitter)
This is like when Kathy went to cry on Pat's shoulder after her affair with Dave Barry. That went on for WEEKS AND WEEKS. #thearchers (@woolminer on Twitter)
Instead of crying, Lilian should be wiping the sweat from her brow, for having lucky escape from Paul the loony tune! (Sue Pidgeon on BBC The Archers Facebook page)
A very disappointing ending. I'd hoped that Lilian would tell Paul it was all over and that he, being the absolute fruit cake, would lock her in the wardrobe...

Making hay
A new (old) car at last
He does like a free feed
Jennifer’s back onside
In the slurry
Let’s hope George is praying for her soul
Having to go to the funeral! Torture...

Happy Father's Day from everyone at The Archers!
Which Ambridge Dad do you think most deserves a nice, peaceful day?

If you, like Clarrie, had to get your hands on a spot of information (flower festival related or otherwise), which Ambridge resident would you choose?

Listeners were in shock this week as Lilian and Paul’s love story came to an abrupt end! In the days beforehand, many speculated on the outcome and omnibusers broke with tradition and tuned in during the week.
Meanwhile, listeners wonder if Rob has his eyes on the Bridge Farm heifers. Could Pat’s precious cows end up in Brian’s mega dairy? And at home, the elusive Jess Titchener is fuelling gossip – where is she?
And as Jennifer tries to steer clear of Jim as she attempts to find her mum a home help, she has come under scrutiny – listeners think her...

Michael Fenton Stevens (Paul Morgan) and Sunny Ormonde (Lilian Bellamy)
In January 2010, Lilian Bellamy was approached by a stranger looking for her partner Matt Crawford and was surprised to discover he was Matt's half-brother Paul Morgan. Divorced with adult children, Paul ran a building business. He told her that he had always wanted to meet Matt. Their mother was terminally ill and had become more open about her past.

Lilian told Paul that Matt was in prison but she would tell him about Paul’s visit. She was sure it would be something positive...

Someone at the door!
A mainly female workforce this year...
At least the supermarket is keen

Badly shaken by the visit
Aren’t mums a worry
