BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 23/01/2008

Jill's been unsuccessful in getting all the specific ingredients Phil wants for his authentic oriental meal, and things are hotting up in the kitchen. Kenton and Kathy have cried off due to Kathy's illness. Elizabeth tells David it's just a bug and is grateful to Nigel for changing the subject when David tells her Ruth thinks it might be more serious. Everyone makes an effort to assure Phil the meal was good. Phil knows it was far from his best but blames it on the wrong ingredients.

After another productive meeting with Annabelle, Matt suggests a drink after work to update her on the skylark problem. He tells her how he impressed Pip with his plans to do something positive for the skylarks, and how eager she was to be on the team monitoring this year's plots for skylarks. Annabelle tells him that's not enough but he assures her he's got more up his sleeve.

Lilian's not happy when Matt strolls in late, stinking of wine. He insists he's been talking business all evening but Lilian wants to know who with. He's totally evasive but finally admits that Annabelle was around briefly. But that's all he's revealing - he's got another full day tomorrow so now he wants to get to sleep.

Episode written by Adrian Flynn.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
