BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 24/07/2018

There's a shock for Anisha and an emotional farewell at Home Farm.

At Blossom Hill Cottage Anisha's frantically packing, and it takes a while for Rex to get a word in edgeways. When she offers to keep his spare toiletries for when he visits he finally tells her - he isn't coming to Newmarket. It was a horrible decision, but Ambridge is where he belongs. Anisha's upset, but admits she was more surprised when he said he would come with her. She understands that he's got a business, and family, to keep him here. They agree they've had fun, but that it wasn't the right time to take such a big step in their relationship. 

Adam reveals to Brian that some of the pickers are ready to leave, as they have earned as much as they wanted to. Brian's convinced this is a ploy to get more money out of Adam.

As Debbie gets ready to leave, Brian thanks her for staying. Debbie's not sure she's done much good; she was hoping to find a solution that didn't involve selling the house. Brian reassures Debbie that she mustn't blame herself. Debbie gently points out that, whatever Jennifer says, selling the house will break her heart. After Debbie has gone Brian apologises to Jennifer again. But Jennifer is firm - they won't survive this with resentment and recriminations. They'll get through it together.

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