The Archers PodcastAvailable for over a year
Emma Freud meets Emma Grundy, played by Emerald O'Hanrahan, who imagines her future as a youthful grandmother to George and Amber's baby. Archers scriptwriter Nick Warburton, who wrote this week's episodes, reflects on his calling as a storyteller, and looks back at some of his most memorable scenes, including a confrontation between Jazzer and Shula, and Emma Grundy's energetic public campaign against Borsetshire Water, accompanied by the massed bells of the village. And Georgina Euden, a solicitor specialising in agriculture and landed estates, and a passionate Archers listener, gives her expert opinion on the succession chaos at Home Farm, and how it mirrors what often happens in the world beyond Ambridge.
