101. Lily’s Love Life and Visiting The Repair Shop
Emma Freud catches up on Lily's love life, with actress Katie Redford. She is also joined by The Repair Shop's Mark Stuckey who's been tasked with fixing an important Archers prop.
Emma Freud catches up with Katie Redford, who plays Lily Pargetter, to find out about her character's fledgling relationship with Sgt Harrison Burns. BBC broadcaster Tina Ritchie shares her thoughts on this controversial pairing. Does Lily have a 'thing' for older men? And do the actors really kiss when recording romantic scenes?
The Repair Shop's Mark Stuckey discusses his recent trip to The Archers HQ, when colleague Dom Chinea visited the Flower and Produce Show. The Archers then made a return trip to The Repair Shop Barn, to see if Mark could repair a special piece of Archers equipment. But you'll have to wait till next year to see how he got on...
We delve into the archives to test our knowledge on Flower and Produce shows gone by, and to remember an eccentric Ambridge stalwart, Marjorie Antrobus. We revisit the moment her pedigree Afghan hound Portia ran into Jack Woolley's Staffordshire bull terrier Captain.
