BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 31/01/2020

Kirsty faces a shock and Josh holds his hands up.

Today’s the day Stephanie will decide whether she still wants Brookfield as her wedding venue. Josh is feeling the pressure. With Josh’s kit confiscated by the police, and his reputation in tatters, he’s stuck for things to do. David assigns him some tasks around the farm. David is dismayed to discover that Vince has come in Stephanie’s place, as she’s at a dress fitting. Vince plays up the risk he’d be taking in booking Brookfield when the police could show up and ruin the whole day. Josh steps in and takes all the blame. The police were there on account of his stupid mistake, and it wouldn’t be fair for the wedding business to suffer from his actions. Stephanie needs more time to mull it over. Vince admires Josh’s honesty, and hands him his business card and the details of his hot shot lawyer.
While Jack is distracted by the new playground, Kirsty fills Helen in on her plans for a secret wedding. Helen is touched to be invited. Kirsty’s surprised to find Gavin waiting outside her house. As Philip arrives, Gavin breaks down and explains that his fiancée Kelly has chucked him out. His wedding’s off. With the state he’s in, Kirsty insists Gavin stays with them for a few days.

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