BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 19/01/2016

Lynda is ready for a grand reopening, and Tom is ready to know a secret.

Lilian enjoys a look at some of Robert's backstage photos from the Calendar Girls performances. There's nothing too revealing, to Brian's disappointment as he asks for a look. The best, recurring picture, seems to be of Neil covering his eyes.

The date for the village hall reopening looks to have been set - they're aiming for Easter Monday. Lynda's keen to mark it with something special - perhaps a special guest? Lilian isn't quite ready to leave Home Farm and move back to the Dower House just yet, despite some subtle hints from Brian.

Eddie and Joe are erecting a new shed at Grange Farm, after the one burnt down during the wassail. Joe reveals that Tom wants to know Joe's mother's secret black pudding recipe.

Brian feels guilty for the treatment Charlie has had at Berrow Farm and in the village. Adam ruefully agrees - but that's life, eh?

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