BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 04/04/2010

Pip shows her priorities are still in order, and Brenda spots a golden opportunity.

The dawn service is difficult without Phil, so Jill's delighted when Pip turns up to keep her company. They enjoy a huge breakfast at the Village Hall, courtesy of Usha. Pip tells Alan she's busy with revision, coursework for her Environmental Studies diploma, and work at Lower Loxley.

Jazzer tried to swap his talent show prize (a Bridge Farm Hamper) with Mr Pullen's dinner for two at Grey Gables. After eating the sausages and ice-cream Jazzer tried, unsuccessfully again, to swap the rest for more of the same. 

Brenda's working for Gourmet Grills at Lower Loxley's Easter Fair. Pip introduces Jude. Brenda tells Tom they went to the same drama group when she was fifteen. Jude doesn't recognise her though.

Jude tells Pip they're going on holiday to Newquay next week, with his mates. Pip's never surfed but her main concern is the cost. She doesn't let on, and tells Jude he's brilliant.

Brenda has a quick look online, and sees the perfect job - junior account executive for a PR Agency. It's a twelve month contract based in Leicester. Tom's aghast at the distance but there's no stopping Brenda. It closes on Friday, so she wants to start on her application right away.

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