BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 09/05/2010

Brenda prepares for the challenge ahead, and Josh gives Spielberg a run for his money.

Josh films Jill cooking a steak and kidney pudding and apple meringue for his school project. Jill's a natural. It reminds her of when she met Phil. She was demonstrating cooking equipment in a Borchester store. Meanwhile, Pip is having lunch with Jude and his mates, and Ruth suspects Pip's had to cook it. She wishes Pip would come home more. Jill understands her concerns, but thinks they might have to come to a compromise over Jude.

Tom wishes Brenda would come to the cricket but she's busy ironing her work shirts. She eventually makes it but is too late to see Tom bat, as he's out pretty quickly. He hopes Alistair won't be too hard on him. Tom tells Kenton he'll be too busy for the single wicket competition, especially with Brenda in her new job. Kenton remembers how getting Jaxx off the ground took all his time and energy. He admits he neglected Kathy and Meriel, and resolves to visit Meriel soon. 

David won't be entering the single wicket competition either. He knows how much it means to Shula and Alistair but he's too busy on the farm, and needs to spend more time with his kids. Alistair's going to have to look elsewhere.

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