The Archers - 02/11/2008

Peggy and Jennifer collect Jack from the Willows. Jennifer's prepared plenty of food but Peggy is determined to do as much as possible herself and, after initial difficulties, Jack seems to be settled. Peggy thanks Jennifer for her help and insists that she now leaves her to it. But as Jennifer leaves, Peggy sinks, exhausted, into a chair. Elizabeth's surprised to learn that Peggy's taking Jack straight back to the Lodge. Lilian explains that Peggy won't hear of any other option - she's always vowed she would look after Jack herself. All Lilian can do is provide as much back-up as possible. Elizabeth knows how competitive Nigel is, and worries that he'll take risks at Lower Loxley's team chase, but the Go-Getters make a good start and Nigel rides well. Oliver does a great job commentating and Lilian gets into the spirit of things, cheering the Go-Getters on. They're doing really well as they approach the penultimate fence. Nigel clears it well but Caroline takes a nasty fall. Oliver's concern can be heard in his voice and Elizabeth and Lilian can tell it doesn't look good. Lilian thinks Caroline has damaged her collar-bone, and knows how much that's going to hurt. Episode written by Carole Simpson Solazzo.
