BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 03/06/2014

Helen is working hard, and Jennifer takes Lilian in hand.

Tony explains to forlorn Jazzer that the focus at Bridge Farm will be on beef in the future. Pat wonders how John would feel if he knew they'd let the pigs go. They talk about handing the farm on in future and agree they need to build bridges with Helen.

Jazzer's not happy working on the veg. He asks Rob for work at Berrow Farm and notices that Rob's not happy about Open Farm Sunday. Jazzer and Ed will be going in for the sheep shearing competition at the Borsetshire Show.

Helen tells Pat she feels like a hamster on a wheel. When Pat mentions that she hardly sees Helen these days, Helen is defensive. She reminds Pat that she's left home and isn't coming back.

Jennifer is determined that her kitchen will be finished soon but project manager Buddy has a broken arm. Lilian is keen to outdo Lynda with some handmade present for her unborn grandchild. Jennifer offers to help Lilian with her knitting. But Lilian is thinking of buying something and pretending she made it herself.

Rob makes dinner for himself. He only bought one steak, thinking Helen would have already eaten. Helen rustles something up, but also makes a salad for Rob. He jokes that he's happy to fend for himself once in a while.

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