BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 26/07/2021

Ian demands the truth and Roy makes an impression.

Roy finally gets to meet up with his date Leyla at a restaurant. After a stumbling start the ice is broken. They have a great time and laugh at their nerves now they’re finally meeting up in person. When the wrong food arrives for Leyla, Roy gives her a short tutorial on how to complain effectively, which Leyla enjoys. They agree happily to meet up again, this time in Ambridge.
Ian’s still bothered by Adam’s shiftiness. He tells Helen he’s sure Adam’s lying to him again. He ducks out of lunch with Helen; there’s something he needs to check on. He’s looked at Adam’s messages and found out he’s meeting someone called Michael today at a pub, and not at a farm machinery sale after all. Ian blunders in to Adam’s meeting with Michael and calls him out. Despite Adam’s quiet protestations Ian accuses him of having an affair, and he won’t back down despite Michael’s obvious awkwardness. To try and stem the tide Adam confesses Michael’s hiring him as a farm manager; he’s quit Home Farm. In his anxiety to explain, he references the loan he took from the farm accounts. Michael’s heard enough, and retracts his job offer. Adam’s furious with Ian for ruining his chances, but Ian insists anything lost today is entirely down to Adam.
