BBC Radio 4 - The Archers, 15/06/2022

Tom and Natasha have somewhere to be. Beth and Ben have their patience tested.

David and Ruth try to placate Ben who’s fed up with Steph being in the way at Beth’s home. David checked in with Vince yesterday about Steph’s Suddenly Single party. Vince was grateful for David’s concern for her wellbeing. Steph requests a punchbag and a pinata with Liam’s face on for the party. David insists she’ll have to source those herself. He’s not happy about holding the party, but Ruth reminds him they can’t pick and choose their customers.
Beth joins Ben as he moves a group of sheep. They share one another’s frustration with not having their own space. Neither of them feels comfortable being intimate at Brookfield. Ben’s hopeful that the Suddenly Single party will help Beth move on and out of Beth’s place. Beth complains about Steph eating her food and leaving the kitchen in a mess. Ben thinks she should challenge Steph but Beth says she only ends up crying. Beth is at a loss as to how to tackle it. Ben gives some supportive advice based on what his course mates have said. Beth is put out that Ben’s been sharing details of their sex life, or lack of it, with other people. 
Tom’s tense while he waits with Natasha for her scan. She reassures him – their babies are going to be fine. They chat about Stella running Home Farm in Brian’s absence, wondering how Adam will feel. The sonographer confirms everything looks well with their babies. Tom leaves the room and Natasha can’t wait to find out if she’s having girls or boys.

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