BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 17/11/2015

Lynda is put on the spot, and there is news to hold up rehearsal.

Phoebe has passed her driving theory test, and is still busy reading science and current affairs papers and magazines in her quest to get into Oxford.

Neil's grateful for the offer of Jennifer's old kitchen units, for the village hall restoration. As Susan chivvies Neil along to their play rehearsal, Susan's miffed that Neil's letting Bridge Farm take his workers (Jazzer) away to help with the shop - and that manager Neil is doing the dirty work seeing to the pig arks. 

Calendar Girls rehearsal has a late start due to Susan filling Lynda in on some good news: Neil heard from Jim that the village shop has been given Community Asset status. Susan hopes that'll put paid to Hazel Woolley's schemes - hopefully they'll reopen before Christmas. Susan's quite happy to steal an idea or two from her rivals at Bridge Farm. Susan gossips about Rob and Tony's supposed 'to-do' in the yard yesterday and how amazing Rob is. Meanwhile, Jennifer tells Elizabeth all about Adam and Ian's wedding coming up on December 14th.

Lynda has completed casting for all the female roles and nudity is naturally the hot topic: Lynda's pressured into appearing in her Calendar Girls calendar - it's everyone or no one!
