BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 27/10/2014

Jennifer has got surprising plans, and David confides in Adam.

Jennifer invites Carol to Peggy's birthday party. Pat and Tony are holding it and Jennifer's doing a memory book. Jennifer gives Carol a book from John that clearly was meant for her (there's a dedication). They both read some beautiful passages.

Jill's relieved to be home from Northumberland. Ruth's still up there looking after Heather who has suffered a broken wrist from her fall. David enthuses to Adam about the farm they visited. Adam wonders why the rush to look for a new farm, but David feels they need to be ready, admitting that Jill is less keen than the kids.

Peggy sees Jennifer reading John's book 'Communication With The Other Side'. Jennifer might even hold a séance just for fun. Peggy's sceptical.

Carol has been foraging for sloes at Manor Court. Instead of the usual bridge lesson with Jill, she gets Jill and Peggy to help her make sloe gin. Jill bravely tells Carol about the farm in Northumberland. Carol defiantly says she'd chain herself to Brookfield to protest at the new road.

Jill's happy to see Peggy so animated. She tells Carol about Jennifer's séance idea. Carol comments that if John was to come back and haunt anyone it would be her (Carol).

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