BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 22/04/2015

Shula meets a friend, while Helen is torn.

Tony's getting stronger from his physiotherapy, continuing his exercises. All being well the new bull will be delivered in a couple of weeks.
Pat and Tony meet with Tom and Helen to discuss their business idea. Pat's pleased to see Helen and Tom working together, but Helen's rather flat and a bit distracted. Tom proposes closing down Ambridge Organics and opening up a farm shop on Bridge Farm instead. Their parents are very supportive. Tom's sure Susan will be fine with it as well. Helen's secretly conflicted, but agrees she's all for it - in principle.
Shula and Alistair struggle to communicate as busy Alistair rushes off to Darrington for a meeting. Shula reaches out to him as he talks of the devastation to the surgery, which is being cleared. It would be nice for them to eat together at least one night this week. 
Shula and Richard Locke meet for coffee and have a good reminisce. Shula invites Richard over to lunch with her and Alistair. Alistair feels weary, like he's on the cricket scrap heap. He doesn't really react as Shula tells him about Richard coming over for lunch, simply happy to go along with plans.

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