The Archers Folgen

With Martyn Gibson’s water company links, Neil asks a favour of him to help David and Chris with the Show’s equestrian situation. Neil shocks Martyn by revealing that Adam has left Home Farm, quickly realising Martyn didn’t know, as Martyn storms over to see Brian. Martyn wants assurance that Home Farm will honour their contract for the Borchester Land harvest. Ed reassures Martyn and Brian props Ed up as his deputy, leaving Martyn to make a pointed comment about paying Ed a manager’s salary, and Ed tentatively asking Brian about this. Brian puts him off and suggests a drink. Neil’s faux pas leads Susan to wonder about offering Adam work in the shop while Jim’s away. They also discuss George and Amber falling out over the Gordons’ posh cot, and Bert staying at Clive’s. Neil thinks they need a city break, like Jim. Lottie invites Neil and Susan to join her and Chris in the busy Bull, also offering Neil a way to avoid Martyn. She then includes Brian and Ed. Privately, Martyn offers Chris some help with the Show, then finds Ed. Martyn wants Ed to effectively spy on Brian at Home Farm and report back to him. Ed’s not keen, and Martyn offers a potential bribe in the form of a large tree surgery job. It appears Ed won’t be bought though. At their table, Lottie invites everyone’s best idea for Pip and Stella’s ‘Lesbi-Hen’ party. Susan wins the prize of a free dinner with her idea of a treasure hunt based on meaningful locations around the village.
