Truly love the podcast but why has it been delayed due to the later broadcasting of the omnibus? It doesn’t make any sense

I started listening to Ambridge on the Couch about six months ago…I’ve been an Archers fan for about 8 years now and I wish I’d found AotC earlier! It’s the perfect accompaniment to The Archers and I’m now addicted to both. There hasn’t been a single podcast episode where I haven’t rewound and...Read full review »

My favourite weekly podcast, and a must for regular Archers listeners with a sense of humour. Lucy’s weekly summaries and scripts for the vignettes are hilarious and Harriet’s uncanny ability to morph into many of the characters’ voices is amazing. And the regular makeover and styling advice from...Read full review »

So glad I found this podcast, I love listening in each week and laughing out loud, my husband and friends don’t follow the Archers so this podcast gives me the gossip and guessing I need along with the humour, great work guys, thanks for what you do :)

A whimsical and irreverent but nonetheless affectionate weekly critique of the unique institution that is BBC Radio 4’s The Archers. Highly recommended!
Ltgeorge via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 03/18/24
Love this podcast! Lucy, Harriet and Geoff are all incredibly amusing. I look forward to listening on my morning walk as soon as it’s released. You never know what will come upon the conversation next! Oh, and not forgetting Matt Rodrigues Paine (spelling?) with his brilliant compilations at the...Read full review »

Harriet Carmichael is funny. Lucy freeman is not very funny, she tries to keep up with Harriet, but her "comedy" voices and outbursts are just annoying The "fabrice" character is also pretty annoying.Read full review »

Funny and entertaining! Listening to them discuss and debate the latest events in Ambridge each week is a joy. If you enjoyt the Archers, you must give this podcast a try! And I also love that they don't put out an accompanying video each week, as some podcasts do. The whole point of a...Read full review »

Sorry it’s taken me so long to write a review. I love this podcast, Lucy and Harriet are bags of laughs, and let’s not forget the fabulous Febreeze. I would tune in for Lucy’s monologue alone, but Harriet’s impressions are the cherry on the cake 🍰. A must listen for all TA fans👍👍

No idea why anyone would rate this less than five stars. Makes me feel good every single week without fail. And I listen to you so I really don't need to see you.Read full review »

I love my weekly fix of Ambridge gossip and chat, Harriet & Lucy are hilarious.

If you like the archers , this is a must. Funny, engaging and entertaining

So much fun! And love your friendship as well!

I really look forward to my Sunday laugh along with the team. Delightfully silly and charmingly chaotic. This year’s panto was perfection! Keep on like this and you’ll be the celebs opening the summer fete!

You are a bit posher than those scuzzers at TCS but equally silly. Keep it up team. Red Agnes
Redagnes via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/24
I always look forward to seeing this podcast pop up on my feed on Sunday’s. Love the monologue, Harriets’ children interrupting her and hearing about Lucy’s move to north Wales. Enjoyed the skit where Lucy and Jeff pretended that the sometimes disjointed nature of the podcast was done on purpose...Read full review »
Poochie Lavish via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/12/24
Lucy and Harriet’s sideways look at the everyday (and sometimes more dramatic) story of country folk that is The Archers is the highlight of my week. The Sunday morning ironing pile just flies as I laugh through their rambling analysis, shout corrections at them and wonder at Harriet and Jeff’s...Read full review »

Simply superb comfort - I’ve listened to The Archers since maybe 4 years old…now in my good 50’s in the US the ladies (and Jeff and Copper … and Maurice) entertain me with the archer’s thoughts that are bouncing in my head! Love every moment, Sunday morning then re listen for a chuckle over and...Read full review »
Rooster for real via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/23
Fantastic Christmas pantomime episode. You just get better and better! Wonderful voices and humour. This continues to be my favourite Archers podcast. Merry Christmas to you!
Sunday Trekker via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/24/23
This is the best Archers podcast out there by a lot. These ladies are legitimately funny, and also sensitive and insightful. Their dynamic is interesting, as Harriet really loves The Archers and tends to give the characters and plot lines the benefit of the doubt. Lucy is, at best, skeptical, and...Read full review »

I do enjoy this programme very much, it makes me laugh a lot. I particularly like this week’s theme tune- Apache / Archers. Where can I buy it? 😁😁

It’s well good innit

Bloody lovely this podcast! A weekly hoot! Thank you Lucy and Harriet
MrsJooster via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/19/23
Lucy, Harriet and Jeff are truly The Professionals of Archers podcasting. Lucy = Bodie. Tough, laconic, urbane. Will kill you. Harriet = Doyle. Engaging, twinkly, wry. Will also kill you. Jeff = Crowley. Growling in the background. Will not kill you, but knows some people who can....Read full review »

Absolutely brilliant commentary on The Archers. Lucy and Harriet are hilarious. The skits, with Jeff are inventive and brilliantly voiced. Matt’s music is, too, always a delight. The adverts, randomly dropped in the middle of sentences disturb the flow of the programme provoking...Read full review »

Makes listening to The Archers worth it!
roisin_roisin via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 11/02/23
I so enjoy this hilarious commentary on The Archers. The audio, however, is terrible. The volume unexpectedly goes way up and then way down. At times, the sound is very muddled. Hope they get this sorted. Otherwise, very enjoyable.
Shobhana via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/23
These two are just so funny and irreverent and talented. Enhances my guilty pleasure of listening to the Archers.
Magfish51 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/15/23
I so enjoy Ambridge on the Couch, the weekly redux of the shanans the Archers get up to and find myself either enthusiastically agreeing with their takes or shaking my head and how misguided they are. It’s about 50/50 which keeps me on my toes. And now that they’ve got the mic situation under...Read full review »

I love Lucy and Harriet. Frequently irreverent in their delivery but funny and insightful at the same time.
Alandc1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/25/23
Love my weekly listen in as two friends discuss this weeks events in Ambridge… A great recap of the events and topics covered in the week…so .pull up a chair get a glass and listen in…to find out what you had already forgotten …
Southwinds via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/21/23
Lucy, Harriet and Jeff will keep you delightfully entertained with utter silliness, and hilarious sketches, whilst providing poignant observations and their own insights into all topics and characters of The Archers.
Nik Lovenow via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 09/20/23
A great listen
Simodoski via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/19/23
I absolutely love, love this podcast! So funny and I love the impersonations! Keep up the good work! 😁
ajgenieman via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/16/23
I tell myself I only have time for the plot precis but always end up listening to the end. Might as well give in and make myself comfortable on the couch.
Pippin55 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/30/23
A stunning podcast that just gets better and better, just now they managed to get the advert in a place you would expect and where they wanted it to be.
Manesk via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/20/23
As a Brit living far abroad, I used to listen to the Archers and discuss it with NO ONE. Now, I feel like three fun friends bring wine to my kitchen after the omnibus and hash out all the funny, moving and ridiculous bits. Best bit: How they flex their vocal acting skills to spoof Ambridge...Read full review »

At first glance, we couldn't believe that a podcast reviewing a fictious show existed, never mind that it was actually far more realistic and entertaining than any true life stories. What an incredible web of delicious stories is The Archers. You do a bang-up job of exploring plot and...Read full review »

Top archers companion podcast. This podcast is a must for anyone who likes the Archers and isn’t silly.
Dan The Dodger via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/18/23
I frequently laugh out loud whilst listening to Harriet and Lucy. This is such a brilliant podcast.
aitchemdoubleyou via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/13/23
I am not sure if this podcast was the reason the original writers came up with the concept of the Archers but this podcast is a wonderful main event to the side show of all things going on in Ambridge. Like it’s slightly tougher but equally high achieving brother this is only one of two...Read full review »

& of course Geoff & Cooper. You are all amazing. Happiness guaranteed in a Pod! I love you all.
💕Ruby Bellamy💕 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/06/23
I sometimes think the only reason I listen to the Archers is to then listen to this podcast. Like listening to some intelligent chaotic, random (in a good way) friends discussing something we all love! Amazing music and emails too! Thank you all!

The best archers pod cast. Like listening to friends X

Warm, funny and very serious about The Archers. What more could one ask?
Trixie_Rippon via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/29/23
Very funny and entertaining. This podcast is the perfect accompaniment to listening to The Archers. A big round of applause to everyone involved.
Doddsy123 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/29/23
I used to love the Archers. Now I only listen so I can then listen to Lucy & Harriet. They are brilliant, clever, funny & all round wonderful. A MUST LISTEN! I’m addicted…
mattbrom via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/26/23
Harriet and Lucy and company do a great job! Anyone who suggests other podcasts about the Archers are better probably are more comfortable with the mean name calling heard on the others. These women are funny and give an excellent overview of the show. Fabulous Fabrice is worth his weight in...Read full review »
