Emma Freud is joined by Jackie Lye, who plays Joy Horville. It's been a turbulent time for Joy after Rochelle turned up unexpectedly on Christmas Day and brought chaos to Beechwood. Jackie explains why she thinks mother and daughter are more similar than they'd ever admit and Radio 4 continuity announcer Tina Ritchie, who has four daughters, offers her analysis on the Joy-Rochelle relationship. As Rex and Kirsty continue to argue for beavers on rewilding land, James Webb from Cornwall Wildlife Trust tells Emma about the Cornwall Beaver Project, which has been running since 2017.
