Katie and Philippa review events in Ambridge from Sunday 27 to Tuesday 29 September. And we're worried, because Emma has just said life's good. Tornado, flood or loose elephant in the dog field: something is coming.
Philippa has done her research (badly) and brings three baby name suggestions for George and Amber, all better than theirs, obviously. Katie wonders how the name will sound with Grundy on the end, and hopes Joe survives as a middle name.
We also talk about Amber's first days as a mum. We thought the writing was beautifully done, from the pain and exhaustion to that shopping list left on the side, and we're sending her solidarity. Susan steps in brilliantly, and gets a gossip in about Harrison and Lily while she's at it.
Plus: team Martyn or team Brian, Lynda's dog field plans, Martyn telling Ed to "talk to the Archers", where the Grundys are all going to live, and Brian and Adam. Brian is still not reading the room.
Philippa also thanks Julie and Morgan at the BBC office for letting her join their event, where she read the parts of Adam and Lilian, sound effects and all.
We finish with Star of the Week, Twit of the Week and our predictions. Katie's are very wise. Philippa's are not.
We're back next Tuesday. Share your baby name ideas for George and Amber in the Facebook group.
