The Archers

Harrison and Fallon both have a day off, but he’s disappointed that she’s busy clearing up at the Bull after last night’s party. Emma left early, a bit unwell, apparently. Harrison calls Alistair for a chat, and volunteers to take on some of the Under 16s cricket coaching. He’ll take on Safeguarding too. Harrison needs a distraction and complains about how awkward things are sometimes at home with Fallon. But as Alistair thinks about the fallout of his affair with Denise, he points out how lucky Harrison is – what has he to complain about? A newly energised Harrison returns home and tells Fallon to go for her idea of running a café outlet at the EV station. He’ll support her and he’ll even go back full time at work to help with their finances. He loves Fallon and wants her to be happy. Fallon’s happy that he’s taking on the young people’s cricket, although Harrison jokes that he feels a bit of a ‘mug’. Kate helps Kirsty move some fencing for the Longhorn cattle for Tony, and they chat about Roy. Mike and family are planning to visit him, and Roy has requested they bring him a particular memento – a framed aerial photo of Ambridge. But Kirsty can’t find it, so Kate steps in to help. They root through a box of things, which bring back warm memories of Roy, and they end up gossiping about his love life. Finally, Kirsty spots the photo, which includes Roy, as a tiny dot in a yellow cap, right at the heart of the village.
