Summary

This week’s podcast is presented by Stephen and Jacqueline.

We hear from:

· Amber Rage in Ambridge - a second time caller-innerer - who is on #TeamGeorge in his dispute with Lilian;

· Katherine, who is frustrated that so many inhabitants of Ambridge won't let George move on;

· Claire from Clapham who has been enjoying people being told the truth this week;

· Tracy from California who has solutions for Home Farm and Meadow Farm, and advice for George;

· David from Carmarthenshire, who has been impressed by all the strong women calling George out over his behaviour;

· Dumteedum regular Vicky and her friend Di, who have had some laugh out loud moments listening to what's going on at Home Farm this week;

· Globe-Trotting Richard, who has been researching who is liable for what at Meadow Farm;

· And finally Glyn, who has been enjoying some, but not all of the conflict we have seen this week;

And we have emails from Omnibus-listener Jeff, from Laura aka Edna Cloud, and from Chris in Indiana.

As usual we'll hear a roundup of the Dumteedum Facebook group, this week from Witherspoon, and the Tweets of the Week from Theo plus the round up of this Week in Ambridge, from Suey.
