0:00.0	Ready for sunshine, flavor, and adventure? This summer, Sun Express Airlines takes you nonstop
0:05.8	from London Stansted to six unforgettable destinations across Turkey, including two exciting new routes,
0:12.9	Dallaman and Kayseri. From the turquoise coast to the heart of Anatolia, your dream getaway
0:18.5	is just a flight away. Book now from just 59.99 pounds and let turkey welcome you with sun express. This is a dumpty Dumpty Dum, Dum.
1:01.5	This is Dumpty Dum, the podcast that lets you talk to the world about the archers and the past week in Ambridge.
1:05.4	I'm Stephen Bowden, and not everything I do is about what happened at school.
1:09.7	And I'm Theo Bloom, ready to pour my orange juice over Lawrence's head.
1:28.2	And then there's you, our lovely Dumpty Dummers. You've got a really nice vibe. Welcome to Dumpty Dum, the perfect place to reflect upon the last seven days in our favourite Borsuchure Village. This week's scripts are written by Katie Hymns for the second week in a row when we were treated to more excellent dialogue from Chelsea, along with some intriguing developments at Home Farm and a stunning episode on Friday.

1:57.3	this week from Jacqueline and Christchurchurch and the tweets of the week from Michelle.
2:01.3	But let's start with the week in Ambridge from Suey.
2:08.0	Hello, lovely dumpty dummers. It's Suey, Queen Altart here. And yes, I am back from running a revolution in America.
2:14.7	It was only a tiny one and it was set in 1848 and the revolutionaries won.
2:20.0	Thanks, Jacqueline, for filling in. So, too long didn't read this week. The cricket payment scandal
2:25.5	may bring Ambridge down, but they've already been relegated, so that's okay. Adam has resigned from
2:30.7	Bridge Farm, but it remains to be seen whether he'll have a permanent job at home farm.
2:35.5	Amber was awful to Kate, enough that I almost felt sorry for Kate, who turned into a sister
2:40.4	bear and was ready to savager. Lawrence ended up wearing a glass of orange juice. Hurrah! Zanab got
