How on earth are they going to explain it if something terrible happens back in the main show?

I did hear JD mentioning she's having trouble with Kate;no details were relayed so maybe they're going to talk about her soon. IMO Kate has sounded unhappy for a long time but she's denying it isn't she? so what do you reckon she'll be kidnapped or worse?

Yes obviously Did you hear even Kate say it was dangerous in Jo burg? I'm amazed she didn't find out how Pheebs was going to get to her friend's and follow her.

Well Pheebs has been eavesdropping and found out that Kate is carrying on with 'another man'. It does sound like there's not much love lost between her and Lucas who is very authoritarian ( Kate's rebellion has ended in her going with a black guy who's worse than her Dad!).

Pheebs has started to rebel big style and has run out to go round her friend's who obviously lives a long way 'cos she needs to get a taxi. In "dangerous" Joburg and has been picked up by someone (we don't know if he's a taxi not).

They also showed it was dangerous a couple of weeks ago with that weird guy who Lucas scared away. I really hope she just gets a scare and isn't sacrificed for storyline.

We've got a friend who worked there in RL and he was saying it is extremely dangerous esp. if you look like you might be rich or white. he had first hand knowledge. The S.W.'s knew what they were doing putting Kate there!

So we have Kate and Pheebs plus step-siblings all having to return to Ambridge after Lucas's murder (or alternatively his arrest for murder).

Lots of scope for Kate / Hailey rivalry and racism issues for the children at school.

What has happened on Thurs?!!!!!

Well it got a bit confusing (of course on radio!!) but Lucas rushes in his car to follow Pheebs who's in a taxi texting directions (the driver who has made suggestive comments and showed her a cricket bat he keeps under his seat 'just in case' but doesn't seem totally bad is taking a short cut but stopped by rd. works). Lucas sees her, she's freaking by now and it's not clear what happened ; pheebs gets out of taxi as does driver who wants his money and Lucas too.... I'm assuming here though because it's gets completely garbled screams bangs etc.....!!!! and it finishes Shock There is a repeat on extra on Sunday a.m. and p.m.

I thought that Pheebs hadn't seen what was under his seat but had assumed it was a cricket/baseball bat...the driver said then 'boom they're in the hospital'.

Presumably it was a gun not sports equipment though.

The timeline for AE versus TA is always a bit shakey (ie Thursday's episode was clearly a real-time follow on from Tuesday) so I wonder if none of this will be talked about in Ambridge until Tuesday evening as presumably all this was happening on Tuesday/Wednesday night (wasn't Kate's side of the call with Hayley already heard on TA?).

Dammit I want to hear the next episode now, I can't wait until Tuesday and a little bit of me is loathing myself for feeling like this

Yes ace I'm proper confused now; how far ahead or behind in time is S.A.? from us,if it is at all? We heard the call to Hayley in Ambex didn't we? IKEWYM I'm hooked as well Hmm

We heard Hayley's side a few days ago on The Archers where it was all 'well I'd arranged to speak with her at this time. ok. get her to call me please.' terseness from Hayley.

Then on yesterday's Ambex we got Kate's flustered 'look she's not here, she's gone out, yes yes I'll get her to call'....

I assumed these were the same call but they happened on totally different days

At least though they've stopped that hideous stream of consciousness voice over this series of AE! That was making me want to scratch my ears off!

ppeatfruit · 27/07/2012 09:19

I remember that too it was the same call then? I bet the S.W's wish they'd never started all this Grin I've only just started listening to Ambex. so I didn't hear that voice over, was it to clarify things?

Oh - a thought...perhaps Lucas has the gun not the taxi-driver...!

Voiceover was a hideous soft toned internal monologue so we had Daniel and Alasdair lusting after whatserface the wannabe Vet/Harlot
