BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 31/03/2019

Freddie makes his presence felt and Ben receives an offer.

It’s Mothering Sunday and Jill’s planned a family lunch. Freddie looks forward to meeting Jill’s new boyfriend, Leonard. Freddie adjusts to life outside of prison. He feels he has missed so much what with Tom and Natasha’s wedding, the Aldridges leaving Home Farm and Adam and Ian’s baby news. 

At Brookfield Pip asks Ben if he’d like to be Rosie’s godparent. Ben’s quick to turn Pip down; he doesn’t believe in God so he wouldn’t be comfortable being her godfather. 

At Jill’s Mothering Sunday lunch Freddie quizzes Leonard as to what first attracted him to Jill and annoys Lily with jokes about Russ’ age. Ben’s desperate to learn what life is like on the inside but Freddie’s not keen to talk about it and Ruth steps in to defuse the situation.

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