BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 31/12/2015

Pip is in hot demand on New Year's Eve, as the Grundys make plans for the future.

Eddie starts making plans for getting pigs onto Grange Farm - he'll get hold of a few weaners. Joe feels a good omen about 2016.

There's a Young Farmers' party on for New Year's Eve. Pip's going with Matthew, to Rex and Toby's disappointment. However, Pip ditches it in the end, as Ruth's flight from New Zealand has been delayed and Pip was going to go after picking up Ruth from the airport.

As David looks forward to the plaster coming off his arm, he's worried about having to break it to Ruth that they may have to let the cows go at Brookfield. Meanwhile, Elizabeth tells Shula about David's marriage worries. Ruth finally returns from New Zealand. She has had a lot to think about over the last few weeks and feels exhausted.

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