The Archers - 15/07/2010

Worried Jennifer hasn't heard from Alice for over a week but Brian thinks it's not necessary; Alice will be safe with Christopher. Jennifer is quick to shiver at the thought of a little get-together with Susan to celebrate Christopher and Alice's adventures when they're back. The board meeting went well for Brian and he confides in David who's impressed with plans for the livestock market. All Brian needs now is the NFU backing. David agrees to put a recommendation in at the next NFU meeting but promises not to utter a word to the board about any plans for expansion. Much to Roy and Hayley's horror, Kate calls Phoebe from Africa announcing her return to Ambridge. She'll be back to study in Felpersham. The question is whether Phoebe would be happy if her mum was around for a whole school year? Kate updates Jennifer, who is concerned whether it will all work out the way Kate thinks. It's a bombshell for Hayley and Roy. Once again, will they be the ones left to pick up the pieces?
