Problem: French beans not ripening properly (Blauhilde)

Anyone know why my purple climbing beans are not ripening fully - can it just be the dry conditions? Plants are growing well with many rich green leaves and in last couple of weeks beans setting on the many flowers. But whilst they growing to 10cm / 4" in length, practically all are remaining flat and not fleshing out at all. Leaving them a few days means the seeds in the pod become visible so already past their best.
I'm already watering in the evening every 2-3 days - do they need even more, here in the Midlands. What else could be wrong? Thanks
