BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 14/06/2018

Jill comes to the rescue, and Fallon has a bright idea.

Lynda's keen to make sure that Fallon is on top of preparations for the fete. She's taking a back seat on the committee now, but she impresses upon Fallon the importance of a unifying theme. Fallon's priority for today is sorting out her bridesmaids. At the fete committee meeting Fallon introduces her big idea; Pets' Party Pieces, a pet talent show. Lynda thinks it's perfect. 

Jennifer can't persuade Brian to talk to Kate. Before this trouble with the land sale she'd thought Kate was turning a corner. She'd made peace with Lucas and Noluthando, and was doing a wonderful job with Spiritual Home. Lilian reassures Jennifer that Kate's a survivor. 

Elizabeth confesses to Jill that she's worried about Lily. Jill urges Elizabeth to say what's on her mind, and Elizabeth tells her that Lily's dating Meredith. Elizabeth wants Lily to feel free to say anything - or nothing - to her. But something's wrong. Jill promises to keep it secret until Lily is ready to start telling people her news. This conversation prompts Jill to visit Shula. She doesn't understand why Shula has ended her marriage, but she still loves her, and will support her no matter what. Shula admits she's had a horrible week - Alistair was so cold at the mediation session. Jill hugs her, and she starts to cry.

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