BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 04/03/2013

Chris overindulges, and Jazzer takes a tumble.

Tom complains to Pat that they should add more interesting produce to the veg boxes. Pat disagrees. People like home grown, seasonal organic veg, and they'll continue as they are.
Ed and Jazzer discuss what to call themselves in their new sheep-shearing business. Ed notices the dodgy paint job Jazzer is doing on their new tractor. Celebrating their great investment, Jazzer trips over a paint tin and marks the bonnet with his paint-covered hands. He'll have to start over again.
They join Tom and Chris at The Bull. Bitter about Alice going to Canada, Chris has been getting drunk. Concerned Tom has tried to reassure Chris that they'll get through this, just as he and Brenda are rock solid despite their own bickering. Chris is eventually helped home by Tom and Jazzer, before passing out on the sofa.
Ed collects Keira from Pat, who's been looking after her and Henry. Pat feels it's nice for Keira and Henry to play together. It also helps their mothers.
Tom again tries to explain to Pat why they should buy in a few extra veg varieties. Defensive Pat says that until he receives any specific complaints the subject is closed.

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