BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 27/01/2020

There’s chaos at Brookfield and Alistair digs for information.

Fiona and Alistair are pleased to see how much progress Jim has made, but Fiona is concerned that meeting Michael, another survivor, has affected Jim more than he’s letting on. Over lunch, Alistair digs for details of Fiona’s holiday. She relents and admits she was on holiday with someone new, Angie. Fiona thinks it’s the real deal and Alistair couldn’t be happier. Her concern now is how she’ll come out to Jim.
Vince arrives at Brookfield bang on time. Thankfully, Philip was able to clear the builders’ mess out of the yard promptly. Vince ropes Josh into talking him through their plans for the kitchen and toilet extension, but their discussion is interrupted by the arrival of two police officers. They promptly arrest Josh on suspicion of theft. More officers arrive to search Brookfield for stolen machinery. Ruth and David’ll have to produce paperwork for all the equipment on the farm. Vince can see they have a lot on their plate and makes a hasty retreat.
Later that night, a dejected David returns to the farm. The police are keeping Josh in overnight. Worried, Ruth and David go over all eventualities but come to the conclusion there’s nothing more they can do now. They’ll just have to wait and see.
