BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 12/10/2015

Ed has reason to be gloomy, and Emma has made up her mind.

Rob's all dressed up in his 'ratcatcher' and Henry wants to join him at autumn hunting. Rob agrees with Helen that he can't because of school, but mentions Saturdays and the holidays as a possibility.

Fallon and Emma look around at Bridge Farm, the site for their new tea room once the café's up and running. Meanwhile, Clarrie's keen to use Susan's kitchen to make some apple pies. Clarrie asks Emma to help Eddie set up a website.

Helen defends Rob when Emma innocently asks about how the job hunting's going - for the time being, says Helen, Rob is project-managing the shop, which is great surely. Rob finds Helen talking to Emma about her plans for the café space and he privately criticises Fallon's style, which he thinks is a bit twee.

Ed discovers that his cattle have gone missing (have they been stolen?), which leaves him feeling depressed. Feeling confident about making something of herself - helping Fallon's business and giving up her cleaning job - Emma reassures Ed he'll bounce back.

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