Hi all! Been a while (I listened to the 25th May episode, was not a fan) and wondering if it’s still monologues or back to normal, aka people actually having conversations…
For those who have persisted, do the monologues get easier to listen to?

Not really. Tonight’s were particularly cringeworthy.
There is a bit of dialogue now, but monologue still constitutes the majority of the programme.

Tonight’s was badly-written very soft porn. Implied sex in all directions, no actual slurping.

That might actually be a step up, I always hated the on air kissing.
Almost as much as the awful huffing/puffing which was Ian and Adam post swimming.

Two couples (three characters on air) suggested strongly that there was about to be a seduction. It was to spewk.

Last week, wasn’t Lynda cast & helpless in the garden? In which case, sex seems a remarkably bad idea.

She was. This week, however, a pair of sex-oriented scripties has decided she is about to seduce her husband because they are no longer talking to each other.

Maybe she’ll overreach herself, and break.

I’m also wondering whether it is Lynda or her actor who cannot pronounce bruschetta.
And salad with coq au vin?

One can only hope so.

To be fair, with social distancing that might be rather tricky to, er, pull off…

And the teaser was pure Monty Python: suggestive digestive…

Fig Newton would be even more suggestive.

Just saw a rumour on Facebook that it’s back in the studio next week for The Archers cast… so how many weeks lag is there between recording and publishing? And will they continue from the previous storyline, or have the storylines progressed since May?
Be nice if they could publish a “while you were gone” summary if the latter.

There used to be a six-week delay between start of recording-week and first day of broadcast of the recordings.

And six weeks of recordings done in one week of studio time.
