BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 27/12/2019

Philip gets a shock and Phoebe makes a peace offering.

Phoebe implores Kirsty to give her some advice. The rewilding is in a mess, and she’s especially unpopular with Pip and Rex right now. Kirsty thinks Phoebe could do with remembering that before anything else, Pip and Rex are her friends. Perhaps she needs to see them on that level again. Phoebe agrees and brings Pip a chocolate log as a peace offering. Pip can barely bring herself to talk to Phoebe, and doesn't care that she’s sourced the final piece of land for the rewilding. All she wants right now is to spend time with her family.
Gavin arrives for his post-Christmas dinner with Kirsty and Philip. Before they've even sat down to eat, he announces that he and his girlfriend Kelly have got engaged. He hopes Philip might help him financially, and talks them through his plans for an extravagant wedding in Bali. It'll cost twenty grand, thirty tops. Philip is completely taken aback, but Gavin is confident he'll cough up eventually.

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