BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 21/06/2018

Phoebe offers some advice, and Will suffers another setback.

Joe and Eddie speculate about the entries for Pets' Party Pieces. Maybe they could enter Gem - or the ferrets? When Joe hears Nathan's doing a ventriloquist act with his bearded dragon he thinks that's just plain daft. To distract Will from the stress of his meeting with the solicitor Joe suggests Kai as a candidate. Will's having none of it; Kai's a working dog. He gets a call from Jennifer. Some of his birds are out. Will needs to deal with it, so he resolves to delay his appointment with the solicitor. Despite his best efforts the appointment is missed. Will's frustrated but Eddie's glad - he would rather Will came to his senses and called the whole 'custody' thing off. 

Phoebe finds Kate downbeat about her business. Phoebe hadn't realised the Home Farm clean-up had affected things so badly. She tries to encourage her despondent mum, finding all the positives about Spiritual Home. But Alice's words have hit a nerve with Kate. No-one takes her seriously; she might as well give up. Phoebe counsels her to stop sulking and start fighting. Phoebe confides to Jennifer she's worried about Kate and wants to support her. Jennifer agrees they can't let Spiritual Home go under. If anyone's going to pull Kate out of the spiral, it has to be them.

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