The Archers - 20/05/2008

Clarrie's overheard Usha talking about Shula but Pat already knows, via Lynda, that she was the Echo's source. Adam believes Pat's scheme is on too small a scale. Pat disagrees. Lynda wants to clear up the misunderstanding with Will over the poisoning. Although responsibility still lies with the shoot, allowances should be made for Will's inexperience. Will tells her he doesn't need Lynda, or anyone, sticking their nose in. Will doesn't care that George won't eat his proper meal. He's got George an enormous chocolate cake and just wants to have a good time with him. Eddie asks Tony to oversee their risk assessment for Farm Sunday, assuring him it just means ticking a few boxes. Tony gives it the ok but, with all this hard work, Eddie thinks they ought to charge an entrance fee. Joe insists that's against the true spirit of the day - although a parking fee is a different matter altogether... Pat opens a letter from the District Council. It's an application for planning permission to convert their packhouse across the yard into a dwelling. Beginning to panic, Pat and Tony think it through and realise there's only one explanation. This has to be a mistake. Episode written by Adrian Flynn.
