BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 16/11/2010

It's Race Night at the village hall and Eddie begs a favour from Lilian.

Harry makes a house call to Peggy for her next computer lesson. Peggy has emailed Conn, who replied with photos. Her next challenge is to open them. Harry decides to show Peggy an application that lets them look at any location in the world. They can even find Conn's house. Harry suggests Peggy pays Conn a real visit, but she says she can't possibly leave Jack for so long. 

At the village hall, Jazzer and Eddie plot to make sure Nathan Booth loses badly at the charity horse race. Caroline tells Lilian about her uncle Lord Netherbourne, who's still very fragile. At least he has carers, including Caroline. Tony has escaped another evening with Kathy, and he mentions his concern for Helen. Caroline's distracted by the arrival of Nathan, dressed in a Ocean's Eleven-style lounge suit and orange shirt. 

Eddie nabs Lilian and asks her to do him a good turn. Lilian's persuaded to keep bidding against a confident Nathan on the final horse of the evening. She almost overdoes it, but in the end Nathan pips her with a bid of £150. Eddie's plan works and Nathan's horse comes in last. Afterwards, Eddie realises he hasn't really thought about facing Nathan at subsequent panto rehearsals.
