81. Kirsty's big news and alcohol in Ambridge

The Archers Podcast

Available for over a year

Emma Freud discusses the big news in Ambridge this week, with Kirsty Miller, played by Annabelle Dower. They are joined by Archers fans Emily Unia and Amber Medland to explore the drinking habits of various villagers. What can we learn from Lilian's gin habit or the Grundys' cider making? We also revisit the life of Dan Archer, Ambridge's original patriarch, who died 40 years ago this week. And one listener shares an Easter egg they noticed in an episode last week...
