Dum Tee Dum Episode 84 – The aftermath

DumTeeDum opened with a recording from the DTD get together at the weekend where many podcast listeners gathered and both Lucy and Roifield recalled various encounters and non-encounters during the evening. Apparently even some lurkers were outed – and must now call in. Ruth’s constant moaning is getting everyone down – especially the way that Jill is being used by the family – at 85! Lucy attributes it to misguided guilt – but I reckon it is just mis-use of the character. Yes Ruth deserves some sympathy – but she needs to get involved and talk to David – it […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 83 – A nice short show with Kate Unwin

Lucy revealed she will be coming to the DTD “dinner” in a blouse and nothing else apparently. Reports awaited. There may still be opportunities to join the party. Lucy has abandoned double entendres in favour of single ones – dumbing down for the masses! Kate Unwin is a new listener and first time callerinerer who phoned in because Roifield had told her to do so – the power he wields! She knows Annabelle Dowler having worked with her and Kate has also been appointed as a new member of Roifield’s wonder women! Lucy also has a new member of her […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 82 – Rob revisionism and Amy Gilbert

This week Peter Stirk sponsored the podcast on behalf of WaterAid – please support them. During Lucy’s monologue I think she implied that Miranda is not funny – so I am not the only one. Ed needs luck and some financial collateral. Lucy has forgotten that Helen saw Ian a few weeks ago when the coven were meeting at Gay Grables, although he has vanished since. The South Kensington Lycee always had the best looking girls when I lived in the area – and Roifield confirmed that little has changed! Roifield also highlighted (thank you) the way Kenton suddenly recovered […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 81 – Two calls Ducks, Geese and Greece

A multi-national Dum Tee Dum opened the show which this week was sponsored by Water Aid. Speakpipe might be playing up – so calls were limited this week. As a result Roifield was desperately filling – linking tv zombies to botulism and salmonella in chicken where with some surprise he could reveal that the incidence of salmonella in US chickens is decreasing. Sounded like a ramble in the countryside for me. K J England blames Rob for hiding Scruff in the silage – but this is pretty unlikely as the silage was made after the flood. So Rob is probably […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 80 – Call the MidWife

Graham Seed in a gorilla suit will be at the DumTeeDum get together on November 14 when much fun will ensue. Derek prefers the shopping at Bicester Village rather than Oxford. Peggy came in for some heavy criticism in this episode – but Lucy has perhaps not realised the journey she has undertaken from being a left wing firebrand from the East End through marriage to an alcoholic to her current status as semi-matriach of half of the village, most of whom turned out alright. Lynda’s value to the village came about from fortune telling, running the fete and being […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 79 – Jane Perrone

“Don’t cry for me” said the plants as Jane Perrone the horticultural editor of the Guardian joined our hosts this week; so it is a highly organic and very educational podcast with mentions of the restorative powers of dettol and sugar solutions, mince pies (team Roifield on this one), stollen, urine and compost heaps. Roifield has decking in his back garden whilst Lucy admitted to a very large bush. Jane advises that there may be rats living under the decking so removing it needs the attention of her lurcher. Jane reckons The Archers team generally get gardening matters right; she […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 78 – Calls and Callerinerers

Lucy had good reason for not being her usual organised self so emulated an impala leaping around between subjects which made the podcast even more entertaining than usual. The monologue did major on teeth and geese, and she accurately replayed the worst successful job interview in history. Lots of predictions this week – the Sterlings do not return but the Grundies move to Grange Farm as caretakers; Roy gets together with either Lizzie or Kirsty; although the betting is on Kirsty (aided by Fallon and Kathy who knows about violence at the hands of Owen King) sorting Rob with a […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 77 – Nigel – Graham Seed

Nigel’s voice returned to our ears as Graham Seed joined our DTD hosts. Lucy’s monologue concentrated on the mystic powers of ginger biscuits which had circulated among the Ambridge residents this week. Lucy beautifully questioned Graham who commented that Nigel was a rounded character that involved a lot of his own personality and then replayed his own death scene and murder at the hand of David. As for Lizzie dallying with Trade! There remains huge public recognition of the loss suffered as well as the resulting publicity. The influences of William Smethurst and Mary Wimbush were mentioned as was Tim […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 76 – Tweet of the week

DTD opens with a royalty free rendition of Happy Birthday for Joe Grundy. It concludes with Lucy awarding Roifield “Tweet of the Week”. Squeezed in between are new callers and emailers. Common sentiments include a belief that Helen will get sectioned, Pip is unfairly hated (mainly because she is not the real Pip) and that Christine’s historic contributions are not recognised. Next week Graham Seed from Brookside will be on the podcast. Kosmo On this week’s show we have calls from: Sean Geraghty who thinks Dusty Substances is indulging in a double entendre Lady Garf Garf who thinks Rob’s planning […]

Dum Tee Dum Episode 75 – What did happen last week?

Who knew? The world’s problems can be solved, according to Lucy courtesy of Pip, with a tuna pasta bake! Rob knows how to turn a local organic farm shop into a world dominating chain of supermarkets, by dropping the local, organic and farm products. It was a quiet week as the new scriptwriter bedded herself in with Joe’s tomato plants. And it was equally boring, according to Larkin, in 1955! Various comments were made about some turgid writing this week. Dusty Substances thinks the geese will be an opportunity for optimism over the next few weeks with an inevitable cock […]
