BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 12/04/2015

Ian is wary. Meanwhile, Alistair has a lot to think about.

David's impressed by Dan's award of Second Lieutenant, as Shula tells him about the Sandhurst ceremony. She'll show David the photos.

Heather's now back home in Prudhoe - Josh drove her. Ruth tells Shula her mum's considering sheltered housing.

Adam shows Ian the crop footage he and Charlie took - you really notice the flood damage from the air, and David and Adam discuss the flooded fields. Ian fishes to know more from Adam about Charlie and their working relationship. Ian joins Adam for a walk to check the crops with David. The soil's warming up nicely at Brookfield and Ruth notes that the wheat's starting to move. Adam shows Ian the improving soil. They discuss David staying at Brookfield - Adam's pleased he gets to keep his arable contract.
Alistair saw Shula and Dan having a heart to heart at Sandhurst. Trying to be supportive in the face of their busy lives and recent lack of communication, Alistair echoes Dan - they're facing a new chapter in life.

Shula really wants she and Alistair to make more time for each other. How about doing something tomorrow evening? Yes, I promise, says Alistair.

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