大象传媒 Radio 2 Breakfast Show presenter Terry Wogan is delighted that members of the cast from The Archers will join him to perform three scenes written especially for 大象传媒 Children in Need on 大象传媒 ONE on Friday (18 November).
听
He has been a fan of 大象传媒 Radio 4's The Archers almost as long as the nation's favourite radio drama has been on air.
听
Characters Brian Aldridge and daughter Debbie Travers-Macy appear in one scene; in another caravan lovers Ed and Emma Grundy get up-close and personal; while Lynda Snell turns in a sheepish performance with husband and wife team David and Ruth Archer.
听
"It's lovely to be working with Tamsin Greig who plays Debbie," says Charles Collingwood, who plays the wealthy and charming Brian Aldridge in The Archers.
听
"We're doing a lambing scene so, without wishing to give too much away, all I can say is it's great to be getting down to earth for 大象传媒 Children in Need."
听
Adding to the fun are Coronation Street stars Sally Lindsay (who plays Shelley Unwin) and Antony Cotton (Sean Tully).
听
And while the radio stars from The Archers enjoy their tv moment, the television soap stars get to grips with sounds effects from a radio production studio.
听
It's a recipe for disaster which should produce a bundle of laughs for viewers of this year's 大象传媒 Children in Need programme on 大象传媒 ONE from 7pm with Terry Wogan, Fearne Cotton and Natasha Kaplinksky.
