BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 30/03/2010

Kenton's got a challenge for Robert, and Vicky plays midwife at Grange Farm.

Robert's done a great job with Jim's shelves, so seizes the opportunity to ask Kenton about redecoration work at Jaxx. Kenton reminds Robert he's got a more pressing job - the clap-o-meter. Robert doesn't know how he's going to make it work 

Vicky watches the birth of another bull and thinks it's magical. Ed points out it's farming, and the bulls have to go. Vicky doesn't agree. Mike's finding it difficult to make Vicky see sense. Ed tells him it's not too late but Vicky's already done some research, and Mike knows that she'll soon come up with the idea of veal. Ed insists this is a no-go and Mike assures Ed he'll sort it. But Vicky's already onto the idea and is making plans. Robert has advised her to speak to Pat, who had a go at raising veal calves years ago. 

Vicky passes on her good news to Mike and Ed. They try to persuade her that it's too much work, but Vicky's having none of it. They can leave it to her - she'll sort out a buyer for the calves. Mike realises he's beaten, and to Ed's dismay he suggests they could give it a go.

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