The Archers - 02/08/2009

The cricket team celebrate today's win in the Bull. Alistair's good spirits are marred by Jim's repeated insistence that Adam is a fabulous captain - and by the news that Adam has asked Jim to replace Colin as scorer. Roy confides in Mike that cricket isn't really fun under Adam's leadership... and advises Mike to consider somewhere more exotic than Brussels for his second honeymoon with Vicky. Mike waxes lyrical about Brenda's graduation - but he's worried about her getting a job. He talks to Ed about expanding the herd and the milk round, but Ed feels he couldn't manage extra cows. Jazzer arrives, admitting he's had his phone turned off for most of the day, because Annette keeps calling. Helen despairs of Annette repeatedly texting Jazzer but Annette won't listen. When Annette hears his mobile alert she realizes he's also in The Bull, and goes looking for him. Jazzer sees Annette, and hides in the toilets. He phones Ed to come and smuggle him out but Annette catches them. When Jazzer tells her it's over, she tries in vain to change his mind. Helen wants to comfort Annette but she just wants to go home and be on her own. Episode written by Tim Stimpson.
