I just realized that c/ambridge looks like it's a community about Cambridge. Welp, that's a thing.

Welcome to feddit.uk :)

I was just thinking that about the name.
It's fine, if Cambridge join, you guys can just have a boat race down the Thames.

I'm a big believer in geo-located instances for communities, so Archers on a UK instance sounds like a good plan!

That's what I thought :). I'm awkwardly located in the USA (where we just celebrated our treason-versary), so I had to make a secondary account to make this community on feddit.uk. But hosting a The Archers community on lemmy.sdf.org would just be weird and wrong.

I feel the fault for that lies with the creators - what were they thinking?

Probably for the best they didn't go with their second idea of calling the village Ocksford.

Huh, there's no Oxford community yet.

Thanks for starting this - I was really struggling with the shock revelation that

spoilerJazzer is English!

But had nowhere to discuss it on here.

That was the biggest mountain out of a molehill and I hope it doesn't derail anything.

spoilerI can't believe Jazzer would have his nose so bent out of shape by that! I hope he's acting ridiculous because he thinks it's funny, and not because he's actually upset. Poor Tracy.

Well it was rather clumsily handled to make it more of a drama than it actually was.
