BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 18/03/2018

Clarrie fears the worst, while Shula speaks from experience.

Fallon and Harrison have now finished decorating Woodbine cottage. They playfully tease each other over which one of them will win the Sport Relief challenge. Fallon believes Harrison's line of work gives him an unfair advantage but he's not convinced. 

Jill tries to convince Shula to change her mind about breaking up with Alistair, but Shula says that she doesn't love him anymore and has probably felt like this since Dan left home. She confides in Jill that only Kenton and Jim know at moment but she is planning to see David and Elizabeth soon. Jill suggests waiting a while but Shula is adamant that their marriage is over.

Clarrie tries to persuade Will that it might be good for him to go to Nic's funeral. Will remains unmoved, saying that he and Poppy will stay at home and remember Nic in their own way.

Shula sees Will and offers her condolences. She tells him that going to Mark's funeral was hard but seeing how many people loved him and having that chance to say goodbye was worth it. She also draws a comparison to Caroline's funeral and the comfort it gave her. Shula's words hit home and later Will tells Clarrie that he and Poppy will go to the funeral. Clarrie is pleased and Will hopes that everyone will now stop going on about it.
