BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 27/11/2011

Pat is unable to resist. Meanwhile Alan makes a suggestion.

Susan's worried that Pat will ring Sharon, who'll then blame her for giving Pat her number. Susan's also worried for Tracy's children Brad and Chelsea, as Tracy has money worries. Neil understands that Susan couldn't turn them away, but he's not happy, especially when he's left to babysit while Susan and Tracy shop for Bert and Gary.

Lynda wonders if Susan and Tracy would join her catering team for the Christmas show. Susan explains that she hasn't got time to help. Lynda's delighted to learn from Alan that Mabel has offered to read a Jamaican Christmas story. She'll also supply her home-made non-alcoholic version of the traditional Jamaican drink Sorrell. That sounds warming for a winter night. 

Pat's desperate to ring Sharon and ask if Rich is John's son. Tony's equally desperate for her not to. Tony finds Pat absorbed with the internet, trying to find Kylie's Facebook page. If there's a photograph of Rich, she's got to see it. Pat's so grateful when Tony calmly suggests they look together. They find her page, and on it a picture of Rich. Both are emotional when they see he's the image of John. Tony can't believe it but Pat has no doubt. John had a son.

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