The Archers - 29/01/2008

Nic walks to Keeper's Cottage with the children. Joe's the only one home but Nic's glad of his company and admits she's finding things quiet - especially with Will being so busy. She later tells Brenda how lonely she gets. Brenda's got a busy lifestyle but says she'll give Nic a bell to meet up for a coffee. Sid can't understand why Lilian's ignoring her phone. She's refusing to make things easy for Matt and keeps her mind occupied with plans for The Bull. She's got ideas for Shrove Tuesday which involve borrowing a huge paella pan and making Borsetshire's biggest pancake, which she believes will up their takings. Brian's surprised to see Lilian behind the bar, especially when Lilian tells him she's left Matt. He wastes no time in contacting Matt, and suggests he comes to get her before she tells everyone what he's been up to. Matt rushes over and insists they need to have it out but he has no intention of apologising and Lilian's annoyed by his attitude. When he says the drinks are on him, she takes him at his word and pours a pint over his head. Episode written by Mike Barrington.
