BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 28/02/2017

Lynda sizes up the competition, and Lily has a near miss.

Excited Josh shows his Dad his new website. David agrees there's some decent kit on there. But what David really wants is some help in the lambing sheds. To David's annoyance Josh dashes off to pursue another brainwave.

After accidentally disturbing the rabbits Eddie's after, Josh has to work hard for Eddie's agreement to help promote Ambridge Farm Machinery. As Eddie points out, there's a lot of money in second hand kit. He manages to secure an offer of several good bottles of anything he likes in return for finding Josh the right customers. 

Annoyed Lynda's worked out that the couple who recently cancelled with her is now staying at Grange Farm. She is quickly defeated when Eddie assures that the Sterlings are on board with B&B at Grange Farm. Lynda's woes continue when she has a near miss with speeding Lily. She laments the plague of bad driving in the village; it's time something was done.

Kirsty and Tom share their troubles. Tom explains that not only has he cancelled his place at the Nuffield conference in Brazil he's pulled out of the scholarship altogether. Kirsty wishes he'd think again. But Tom's decided; that door is definitely closed.

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