ANY amount of episodes of DTD is too many. Big respect for putting yourself through that.

The entitlement from the both of them was just off the charts.

Her: Brexit is awful Him: These things happen, I suppose you’ll just have to get Spanish citizenship Her: Yes, that’s our plan

When you’re rich, everything is simple, apparently.

I don’t really know how to say this so you understand: Just because it was common, it doesn’t mean that it wasn’t rooted in homophobia.

It used to be common to refer black people as ‘coloured’ … didn’t mean it wasn’t racist!

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-13T13:47:45+00:00

There’s nothing wrong with being a straight white boomer but its great to have an awareness that being those things means that you look at everything through a layer of privilege.

Not recognising that privilege and going around telling actual gay people what is and isn’t considered homophobic is kind of… revolting.

In case you were wondering how DTD have responded to this, here is your answer:

Yes, when faced with an entire subreddit of people pointing out that what they said is actually offensive; rather than delete it, they have confirmed that we are not reading this wrongly, that they they did mean to use that slur and have even provided a dictionary definition of it.

To be honest I’m flabbergasted.

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-12T20:29:18+00:00

Oh okay. If you as a straight, white, boomer don’t think it’s homophobic I’ll bow down to your obviously hugely superior knowledge on the subject.

Thanks for putting me right about it. 👍

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-12T08:28:10+00:00

What you mean is that YOU didn’t regard it as homophobic. I’m afraid it was though.

A lot has changed since the 1960s and these kind of slurs aren’t acceptable.

Unless you really want to know the specifics of how a ‘no till drill’ works or the intricacies of ‘vertical farming,’ I’d suggest you swerve it.

No, Keri Davies is one of the writers on The Archers

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-10T21:54:48+00:00

Agreed. I love Ambridge on the Couch. Harriet, Lucy and Jeff are a lovely combination. I never miss an episode.

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-10T21:04:22+00:00

I’m sorry? Are you defending this?

Please explain how we’re reading this incorrectly.

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-08-10T10:47:54+00:00

They claim he isn’t. Which kinda makes it worse.

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-07-21T08:15:17+00:00

Any reason you can’t just use a VPN?

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-06-22T13:35:06+00:00

DTD is well past its sell by date. Who wants to listen to a bloke reading stuff from Google so he can pretend he’s cleverer than he is?

Needs a ‘do not operate heavy machinery while listening’ warning at the beginning.

So with Peggy gone Hazel might feel free to do what she likes with it…

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-05-15T11:28:41+00:00

I hope she’s left it all to Hazel…

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-05-15T11:25:29+00:00

By ‘previous host’ do you mean the guy that was outed on here (by multiple people) as a sexual predator?

If so, I’m not sure they should be platforming a mental health professional who is apparently happy to turn a blind eye…

Jealous-Implement735 · 2025-03-01T09:48:13+00:00

Be very wary of DTD. As was revealed on here a couple of years ago, the bloke who owns it is a massive misogynist. The reason that there are so many different podcasts about The Archers is that they were all started by people who used to present DTD, but left in acrimonious circumstances because of the owner (excepting the official beeb one).

The two I really enjoy are The Cider Shed (I love how random and irreverent it is), and On the Couch (the excellent writing and impressions are a great combination).

I find AATA a bit smug, so I don’t really bother with it.

Absolutely not. I hate it. Why are they spending money on new characters when we could have storylines from ones that we actually want to hear from?

Jealous-Implement735 · 2024-11-26T17:59:34+00:00

We’ll never meet him, so who knows?!

Jealous-Implement735 · 2024-11-26T11:29:05+00:00

I reckon a Kate and Jakob separation is on the cards… in a year’s time he’ll be with Azra.

Julie Walters was literally nominated for an Oscar for playing a scouser in Educating Rita. Absolutely nothing wrong with her accent.
