    I think I'd now be combing the school registers under both spellings,
    just in case. Honestly, after Brritski's suggestion (OP, Britters?)
    earlier this month I've been listening to each episode under that
    assumption and nothing I've since heard in Ambridge[1] has shattered
    my delusions.

    This is the first time that Helen Aitken has directed.

    I sort-of assumed that this Helen Aitken was moonlighting from her job
    as a radio announcer elsewhere in the BBC but I was wrong.

    Thanks for that link. Interesting article; on first impressions, she
    sounds responsible. Although it talks about the 2021 calendar as if it's
    just coming out, so is presumably quite old.

    It mentions Brian comforting Jennifer when she realizes she's "related
    to a Horrobin" by referring to Alice's "starter marriage"; I don't think
    I've heard any similar thoughts about the current situation - maybe
    nobody (apart from the pair) thinks yet that it's actually going to happen.

    It appears that the BBC may have made a mistake. It has been reported
    that the correct chaplain is:
    Chaplain --a-a-a Jason Barnett

    Now I am unable to know the difference between these two. Mr Barnett
    (having looked at photos) I recognise as an actor. Mr Bartlett I do
    not. However these things are important so I thought it should be
    mentioned.
