BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 19/03/2020

There’s a near miss for Ed and Lilian delivers some good news.

Ed’s relieved he never worked for Philip who he sees as a cowboy but Emma’s not so sure. Eddie thinks it makes sense why Philip’s quotes are so low. Emma’s not getting flashbacks anymore. 

Emma shows Ed a video of Neil dancing while on holiday. Ed is pleased for the relief – it’s hard going at Grange Farm with Oliver beating himself up over the hotel fire. Ed has enjoyed spending time at Ambridge View and George and Keira are well behaved when he’s there. They misbehave when he goes. Ed and Emma reminisce about their school days and they move closer but the mood is broken by a message from Susan. Emma thought they were back tomorrow but they’re on their way back now. Ed makes sure to leave before they’re back. 

Lynda tells Oliver not to take Robert’s outburst to heart. Oliver still feels bad for his lack of action after the explosion but Lynda insists everyone sees him as a good man. She can’t say the same thing for Philip. Lilian arrives as Oliver leaves. Lynda regrets her earlier words against Philip, blaming the pain she’s in. Lilian reports that the Grey Gables accident has sparked something in Ambridge – people are being generous for the Lent Appeal. Also, it’s been decided that the Bull should give up its new name. The old sign will be put back, and more important, Lynda will get better.
