BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 13/01/2015

Susan wants the best for Emma, and Tom wants to help Johnny.

Emma wants a no-frills, second hand dress for her wedding. Susan shares with Clarrie her horror at the idea of Emma wearing 'cast offs'. They offer to make the dress for Emma - she can design it herself and choose the fabric. Emma's delighted.

Johnny's keen to get outside and keep busy, asking Pat to give Tony his love. Meanwhile, Tom shares with Pat that Roy isn't coping well at all. Tom feels guilty for not being there sooner, especially as Roy was so supportive after Kirsty. Pat tells Tom not to give up on Roy. Tom also tells Pat about his concern over the state of the shop. Pat offers to have a word with Helen.

Tom goes out to join Johnny, who says he's not letting Tony's accident get to him. Tom carefully brings up the subject of dyslexia - Johnny seems to struggle with his writing. Pat reports back from the hospital - Tony's simply bored waiting for a bed to become free in Felpersham. Tom comes back to Jonny with some coloured paper, which he gets Johnny to read from - and he seems to do ok. Johnny's resistant when Tom mentions seeking help from the college's Learning Support Team, but Tom persists, saying that asking for help is not a sign of weakness - he knows himself.
