The headline gives it all this week - we all want to know how and why Ian is going to work his way out of his current impasse with his life partner and his best friend in the village. Lucy believes that Ian would normally talk through his problem with Adam using his normally calm approach to resolving difficulties. Ian obviously cannot think about matters clearly or see a way forward and bringing a reconciliation of all three parties over (hopefully) the near future will prove instructive for listeners.Andrew White from Portland, Maine was making his first call and he has a Jean Harvey fan club which Lucy is glad to know exists. He did not disclose his occupation. Vicky from Cambridge was also a first time caller and she likes Charlie Thomas and she thinks he will stay as well as asking why all the new men are wrong 'uns (Rob, Alex, Toby and/or Rex et al). She buys toilet rolls.I was not the only one who spotted the frisson between Hayley and Roy - thank you Vicky Cole. Lucy does not believe she could be so relaxed over her parenting as demonstrated by Hayley to Phoebe. Luckily Kate did not have the opportunity to get it wrong. Not enough lions roaring in Kenya.Kosmo reminder paragraph: Jennifer did NOT have an affair with John Tregorran - he wouldn't! She did however later have an assignation with her ex-husband Roger as we heard the bedsprings squeaking in a hotel room and she later admitted it to Brian. Does bedding an ex count as a real affair? Subsequently the other side of this is discussed with people being friends after a relationship ends. For Lucy's benefit Caroline took in a lot of men!"Well there was the meltdown over the botulism" demonstrated to Lucy why she loves doing the podcast.Kosmo reminder paragraph: Have the listeners forgotten the Archers two-hander when Kathy and Sid had an entire episode in the Bull to themselves as she had just found out about Jolene? Now that was original.Millie Belle has had a busy week on the Facebook page - go and check out all of updates.KosmoOn this week’s episode we have calls from Andrew White who says we’re a gateway drugVicky Cole who’s pleased Hayley’s backMichele who’s loving the feminist agendaWitherspoon who’s frustrated with PhoebeBlithe Spirit who’s annoyed with CharlieVicky from Cambridge who loves him.
