BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 14/07/2019

Alistair faces an impossible task and Peggy has a change of heart.

Peggy invites Lilian over for an urgent meeting. Peggy and the trustees have agreed that the fund should be open for anyone in the civil parish Ambridge to bid for. They must live there, and be part of the community. Whilst exciting, it’s going to require a lot of work, so she’s changing Lilian’s title to Chief Operating Officer to reflect the extra responsibilities.
Later, at The Bull, Lilian gives Adam the heads up that villagers from outside the family will be able to apply for Peggy’s fund. Lilian has a plan: she’ll send the announcement to the advertising pages of The Echo, in the hope no one will read it.
Alistair asks Jim if he can tell Fiona what really happened in Jim’s childhood. She’s feeling pushed out and is starting to worry that Jim is gravely ill. Alistair explains the situation to Fiona, who is horrified. She thinks they should have known, that Alistair should have spotted something in the time they’ve lived together. She assures Jim that everything will be alright, they’ll deal with 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.
