The Archers - 25/03/2009

Usha's dressed for a run but couldn't get her trainers on without thinking of the mugging. When she burst into tears, Alan says he'll run with her. On the run, Alan struggles to keep up. He tells Usha that Shula's agreed to bring her donkey to the Easter service, and he's pleased. Will and Brian walk the shoot. Will tells Brian he's learnt lots in Gloucestershire, and would like to start growing cover crops for the birds. Brian's dubious, but says Will should talk to Adam. Lynda finds Robert with chocolate around his mouth. He's eating the Easter egg he's bought for her. She's driven him to it. Robert storms off and finds Joe. Robert says the five mile radius diet's killing him. It even excludes alcohol! Joe thinks he can help. Lynda finds Joe and Robert in the cider shed. Joe corners Lynda about the Antony Gormley plinth. He'd like to tell ghost stories on it. Lynda's unimpressed, but he's free to enter the competition. Alan and Usha recover from their run in the Bull. Brian appears, and discovers people have learned about Matt. He says Debbie's coming over, but she'll have to join a long queue of people wanting to talk to Matt. Episode written by Simon Frith.
