The Archers - 27/07/2010

Worried about finishing her grassland survey, Pip asks Ruth to lend a hand. But Ruth's busy milking. Pip needs the help now as she's volunteering at Arkwright Lake at the weekend. Ruth has a brainwave and asks bored Josh to help his sister. When Pip says she'll pay him he reluctantly agrees. When they've finished the work, Josh confides that he thinks Jamie's got issues about his dad. There's stuff he still won't talk about. Pip thinks Josh is being a good mate to Jamie. Eddie's talking to Joe at the vegetable stall, when two young New Zealand female sheep shearers arrive looking for somewhere to stay. Bert's told them there's a cheap campsite nearby, so Eddie shows them his. Unimpressed by his sales pitch, the girls say they'll stay one night and see how they feel in the morning. Joe's fed up they're not staying for the week, especially as his veg isn't selling too well. Alysha calls at Keeper's Cottage for some milk. She says Bert had warned them off the campsite, but now they're set up they think it's a nice little site. They might stay a bit longer after all. Delighted Eddie welcomes them to Ambridge.
