A CARTER FAMILY TOP THREE THIS MONTH WITH ALICE, SUSAN AND CHRIS ALL OCCUPYING THE TOP THREE PLACES.
The month began with a two-character episode featuring just Philip Moss and Gavin Moss, but then things began to return to normal with more and more dialogue episodes with four or five characters per episode. We even had a couple of six-character episodes on the 16th and 29th September. (I wonder if, during the monologue episodes, there has been a rule for the scriptwriters similar to the RULE OF 39.)
A new character appeared, although not one that is likely to become an Ambridge regular – Alice Carter’s pregnancy counsellor appeared in two episodes.
Finally, mark this day on your memoirs — Tuesday 22 September — when Chris Carter uttered those three memorable words to the unsuspecting Lynda Snell: RIGHT YOU ARE! (Not heard since April 7th.)
