BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 16/07/2010

Jolene contemplates her future while Lilian begins to thaw.

Lilian's concerned about work on a property in Hollerton. Brenda does some digging and gives Lilian the info she needs. Lilian naturally takes the credit, but shocks Brenda by inviting her to sit in on the next strategy meeting. She is part of the team after all. Matt congratulates himself on his team-choosing skills. 

Jolene's reeling after the reading of Sid's will. She's clearly still in shock. Jolene can't see things getting better, but Lilian's confident she will feel happiness again. 

Josh grooms Edana the heifer as Pip takes a few pictures. Josh's blog and Facebook group are a sensation. Pip learns about Josh's nickname for Jude - Grandpa Simpson. Seeing the joke, Pip still tries to give him a clout for being cheeky. As David admires Edana's shiny coat, Josh talks about bodybuilding. Pip wonders what he knows about that. 

One of Pip's Young Farmers friends has been following them on the web, and has arranged a group camping outing at the Royal Welsh Show. David encourages Pip to join the group, despite her fears that she dropped them when she met Jude. She clearly still has some good friends. David's delighted for her, and offers her a cuddle.
