The Archers - 05/07/2009

Jim has lunch with Alistair and Shula. He's interested in the fact that Shula went to the cathedral today instead of St Stephen's, but Shula doesn't rise to the bait. Everyone is impressed to hear from Elizabeth that Antony Gormley might be coming to open the fete: it would be quite a coup. Jim coerces Alistair into taking him to the supermarket and then a car showroom. It's clear he's already starting to push his luck. As Vicky prepares her flat for sale, she and Mike look forward to their big day. Vicky tells Mike that she hopes to drop her hours to part time after they're married, so they can spend more time together. Mike thinks it's a wonderful idea. Later, an enthusiastic Lynda asks Elizabeth to take on some of the publicity for the fete. They both hope Gormley will appear on the day... Episode written by Nawal Gadalla.
