BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 14/11/2014

Peggy leaves her party early, and Ed does the right thing.

Tony lies on ground as Helen takes hold of Henry. Ed tells Johnny to throw him a brush, with which Ed hits the bull. Ed instructs Johnny to get the gate and they steer the bull in.

Helen gets frantic Peggy to talk Henry into the house. Ed calls an ambulance. Paramedics arrive and treat Tony - he can only just speak. Tony says he had to get Johnny and Henry out of the way. Ed gives a blow by blow account to the paramedics. Johnny feels guilty for letting go of Henry's hand (and causing the accident) - he's desperate to go and see Tony.

Helen calls Pat who rushes to the hospital. Tony has suffered major injuries - they may have to make a decision about operating. Helen feels it's her fault for leaving Henry at the farm. Pat says we've got to stay strong for Tony's sake. The Doctor talks to Pat about Tony's spinal injury. They need to do an MRI to work out whether to operate - if they do nothing Tony could be wheelchair-dependent for the rest of his life. Pat checks with Tony and says let's operate - but it's not without risk. He could be paralyzed from the waist down. At Tony's side, tearful Pat tells him to keep fighting, and don't dare leave her now.
