Fantastic!

I am a new listener to “The Archers” and I always enjoy listening to “The Archers” and “The Archers Omnibus”. Fantastic cast and characters! Cannae wait to listen to more episodes in the future. Slainte Mhath!

Oh dear....

Fifteen years of The Archers, but our days together are numbered. The characters, storylines, and scenes have become woke and embarrassing. The escape to greener pastures is no more. Perhaps one day the BBC, writers, and producers will WAKE up to what they've done.... Bye, bye Home Farm, et al....

Way of life

I grew up listening on and off for many years back in the UK, now older and with my own family in the USA I am able to share what was a daily ritual on tuning in the radio into a start the podcast on demand, especially on the longer road trips.
