BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 25/05/2012

Ruth is unnerved and Amy won't budge an inch.

Amy agrees reluctantly to go out with Alice and Chris. She warns Alice not to expect her to sparkle. Alan wishes he could make it easier for Amy, but she says he can't change what's happened. He wishes Amy could forgive Usha, but emotional Amy can't talk to him about it. She tells Alice she's still angry with Usha. They were so close; Usha was like a mum to her. How could she have kept quiet about Carl? Amy doesn't know how she can trust Usha now.

Alan finds Ruth clearing up glass on the yard. They discuss Amy, and Ruth tells him that it won't work to pressure Amy. She'll just need time to work it out. Alan thanks Ruth for her advice. He mentions that he spotted one of the farm gates open earlier, so he closed it. Ruth's grateful. When Alan's gone David tells Ruth the police are sending someone over. They agree they don't want the children knowing anything of the situation. Ruth feels happier once the police know everything, and David reminds her they need to get things in perspective. In lighter mood Ruth answers the phone. It's another anonymous call.

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