features new characters and up-to-date happenings in Ambridge, giving
an insight into the characters and their tangled lives. Nearly five
million people listen to The Archers every week in the UK alone,
making it Radio 4's most popular non-news programme.
Keri
Davies' intimate inside knowledge of all the characters (his son,
Dominic, plays the part of Shula's son Daniel), and his wry and
succinct style make this book an absorbing read. Highlights in the
past year include:
- The
ongoing relationship between Brian Aldridge and Siobhan Hathaway,
which is holding audiences in thrall as the couple wait for the
birth of their child. Brian claims that his "stressed appearance"
is due to collapsing world grain prices and a complex organic
venture in Hungary, but we know better.
- Kenton
Archer's less than positive influence at Lower Loxley. This oh-so-obvious
charmer has become a regular visitor at Kathy Perks' home, where
he enjoys the fruits of her cooking and leads her to believe that
his intentions are honourable. But how he wishes he could stay
the night more often聟
- Helen
Archer, manager of Ambridge Organics, is launching a second version
of her new cheese, Borsetshire Blue, after the disastrous failure
of her first attempt earlier this year. Meanwhile, her brother
Tom wins an award for his sausages, and does his best to eclipse
her launch.
This,
the fourth edition of the Who's Who is fully revised, featuring
new characters and up-to-date happenings in Ambridge.
