The Archers - 21/09/2008

David's frustrated to see yet another anti-digester poster. Even though Lilian doesn't think anyone takes any notice of them, her solution is to tear it off the lamppost. David tells her just how much opposition he knows there is but they're both aware that Matt doesn't seem at all bothered about it. Ruth takes Pip to Izzy's, who is in quite an emotional state. Ruth's pleased that Pip's worrying about a normal teenage problem, rather than mass starvation and the population explosion. Ruth also calls on Usha and tells David what a fantastic job they've done of decorating their bedroom. Lilian tells Jennifer that Matt sees no point in meeting his mother again. Jennifer sympathises but is puzzled by Louise's attitude. Alice wants to know how Chris is going to feel when she goes off to university. He plays it cool but soon admits just how much he's going to miss her. Alice feels the same way, and wants Christopher to drive down with her next weekend and help her move in. Jennifer insists it would be simpler if she went with Alice but Chris assures her it's what he wants to do. As Alice is clearly delighted, Jennifer accepts defeat. Episode written by Simon Frith.
