BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 03/01/2016

Jill is feeling excited, and Jennifer has Oxford on the brain.

Jennifer has Oxford on the brain due to Phoebe's application. She also chats to Peggy about Kenton's twelfth night karaoke coming up at the Bull - for which Lynda wants the Calendar Girls cast to reunite.

After a lovely church service this morning, Jill and Peggy hope for the village hall to be reopened by Easter - they joke about Neil being a slave driver in managing the repair project. Peggy feels a sense of new possibility with the coming of the new year. She's keen to know the latest from Jill about Brookfield. She's not the only one, as Brian is invited in to hear their plans. Ruth's keen to reassure sceptical Josh that whatever happens with Route B, they'll be fine.

As Ruth gets talking to David about spring-calving, she starts to wonder whether David's really happy about her new idea for the farm. But David hides any doubts and says he's excited.

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