The Archers

Available for over a year

It’s the Flower and Produce show, and Clarrie and Usha are discussing the new category ‘fruit and veg tableau’. Usha made a scene from the film 'Conclave' using radishes for clergymen, while Clarrie worries about Keira, who was up baking until after midnight. What if the judges don’t like her apple and cider cake? Lily arrives to say the judging is about to start, so the refreshment table may become busy. Harrison comes over for a cuppa when Usha congratulates him and Lily, who start to panic before Usha mentions the cricket match. David is nervous over his and Martyn Gibson’s judging choices. Martyn thinks they’ve made a pair of excellent judges, but not everyone can be winner. Keira comes to Clarrie asking if she’s seen Khalil or Henry around. David asks if Keira’s had a look at the rosettes. Clarrie says they should go look together but Keira says she only entered for fun. Martyn decides to say a few final words at the presentation, and Keira made the favourite cake. Leonard and Tony are at their repair stall when Robert brings Ambridge Hall’s broken toaster. They promise to have it fixed in a jiffy. When Robert returns, Leonard confesses they haven’t fixed it yet, but a gentleman called Dom offered to have a look. Robert recognises Dom from ‘The Repair Shop’ on TV. Leonard confesses he doesn’t know who Dom is, before Tony arrives, recognising Dom immediately. They thank Dom for all his help and Dom promises to help fix John’s old tractor for Tony.
