The Archers - 07/05/2008

Clarrie is still furious with Eddie for advising Will to bury the buzzard. Eddie plans to talk to Baggy; he knows a lot of people and Eddie's asked him to check out who might be doing the poisoning. When Eddie suggests opening their field to the public on Farm Sunday, Clarrie dismisses the idea - they have enough on their plates already. Clarrie asks Ed to look after George until Emma collects him. Emma is surprised to find Ed enjoying time with George. Relaxing in Ed's company, she begins to reminisce. Ed becomes uncomfortable. He doesn't want to think about it and hints that it's time for her to leave. Kathy and Kenton are back at court. Kenton reassures Kathy that her ordeal is almost over. Kathy confesses her fear that Taylor's sentence will be minimal - she is clearly terrified at the thought of her attacker being free within three or four years. Kathy and Kenton are elated when the judge passes a sentence of 15 years. Though still anxious that Taylor may secure an early release, Kathy finally allows herself to feel relieved and tells Kenton she feels her ordeal is finally over. Episode written by Simon Frith.
