Why has all mention of Lakey Hill vanished from TA.?
Would it perhaps have anything to do with Helen, who back in the early summer had another one of her regular mental aberrations, during the course of which, she viciously and sadistically, stabbed to death, Joe Grundy?
Of course the whole of the massed clans of Archers, rallied around and worked out that the only way to stop Helen being found out, arrested and banged-up, in The Jack Woolley Hospital for the Criminally Insane for the disgusting and perverted injuries she carried out during her frenzied knife attack on Joe. Was to collectively stop anybody living in Ambridge from mentioning Joe and/or Lakey Hill.
This was made easier when Peggy a former director of the BCCI . Used a large sum of her unexplained wealth, to bribe all and sundry. to keep away from Lakey Hill.
Why Lakey Hill you ask? For it was on that hill that the cadaver of Joe was to be left exposed to the elements for passing foxes and badgers to dispose of.
Could this be the reason, no mention of Joe has been made for weeks now?
In the next part, we will look at the peculiar coincidence of the blessed Shula's sudden decision to become Ambridge's very own answer to The Vicar of Dribbly. Is this so that in the probable few weeks it will take for Shula's ordination and probably sanctification, any skeletal remains of Joe, will be able to be given a Christian burial? This has to be done since next year - a leap year - a local virgin is due to be sacrificed and burnt at the stake on Lakey Hill. An event which often attracts tourists.
Also. Why Fallon is so enthusiastic about volunteering her police-cadet husband for the next Wicker-Man Festival
Stay tuned.

This is all very plausible, but where will they find a virgin?

Lookit here. Back in the Dark Days, When Radio was called "The Wireless", Mrs Dale was "worried about Jim', Her Mother was always fotmally addressed by Mr Dale as "Mother-in-Law", and The Gardener only addressed as his Surname ("Higgs*"), and the Childrens programme was a 5 minute story in the a.m. and Larry-the-Lamb/a boarding school/a famous five, The Archers was nevertheless, although a poor replacement for "Dick Barton, Special Agent", it did have a weak put plausable sequence of a storyline without "forgetting" events that had happened or started, There were a few mentioned of Lakey Hill.
However that came in those days when it became a tryst for Sundry: some unnecessary conversations for radio listners to understand what had been unuttered in the narrative; for a bit of birdsong; for Mike to make some conmment about his arboratum work and and (in them days) mere hints of unbroadcastable events involving courting couples. (e.g., Mike "wondering" wat Brian and Mandy Beesborough were doing there before the Young Beesborogh was born) . - How do you Spell Beesboroo?
So - Lakey Hill is as devoid od conent as the village itself
So all the stories there were exhausted after the time when Shula took her "Male Best Friends" (including one of her Dad's workman - a Bloke called Neil). Only the occasional mentions are made to Lakey Hill to remind us that it is still there. e.g., a Forest Cemetary (even though Ambridge's deaths are not frequent enough to justify such a place to us outsiders), A very Unlikely sports events for a village decidely unrepesented in "Sport"), Famous Celibreties visiting the place (Wiggins, Royalnesses, etc), or finding lost/escaped pigs or A dog lost after the Floode.
SO, what could possibly be left for Scriptwriters to invent there? All has been written, even Shula, the soothsayer who is soothing people whether they ask for soothing or not, (and Liz) have lost Cameron whats-is-name, have become "responsible" (liz last resorting to a Bivouac with her aptly titled "Events Manager" before discarding him. Does anyboddy want to be scriptwriter who can resurrect Lakey-Hill .
* Thinks: Was this the same "Higgs" as Jack Wooley's Chauffer?
