BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 31/05/2015

Eddie is in party mood, and Jennifer plans some mother-daughter bonding.

Jennifer looks forward to having the young farmers around on Friday. Liam at the Echo may give them a photo - it's all good for the flood relief fund. Brian worries about drunken revellers at Home Farm. Kate turns down Jennifer's suggestion that they compete as a team in the treasure hunt. Brian and Jennifer agree to leave the youngsters to it in the evening. Jennifer has mixed feelings about whether to take part in Open Farm Sunday at Berrow Farm, although it could be good to promote their soft fruits. Kate won't have it though.
Roberts has suggested creating a memorial for Scruff in the garden but Lynda can't face it. Oliver has suggested a holiday and Lynda assures Caroline she'll be able to manage without her. 
Eddie throws a birthday bash for his hippy mate, Baggy. They're having it in secret in Joe's room at Grey Gables. Eddie pulls up in a van containing all the booze and food. They need to sneak all this - as well as their guests - past reception. Joe distracts Lynda, inventing a story about seeing some dodgy looking characters trying to break in to a car. Baggy's loud music alerts Caroline, who has had a complaint. It looks like the party's over - but what's Eddie going to do with all the leftover food?

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