I've got a confession to make.
I don't feel entirely comfortable doing this, it feels slightly sacrilegious to say it - but I don't particularly like The Archers. There. I've said it.
I'm not a fan of radio drama full stop, in fact. Too much over-emphasising words and sounds. Too much melodrama. Too much ham, if you know what I mean.
Remember I was talking about the video I've got to make at the Farmers Weekly Awards, well some of the Archers cast members are coming along and a friend of mine is going to interview them.
So, if you're a fan of the show, and have a question about it, tell me and I'l forward them to the guy who's doing the interview.
I have been without radio for more than two years - there is a radio aerial on the roof, there is a tuner, but they ain't connected. I can only get radio in the car, so I have problems getting out of it at journeys end. Friend said this weekend "but how do you know how to farm if you can't listen to the Archers?". I thought that was rather good!
I'm told that was one of the original aims of The Archers, Mopsa - to educate the general public about farming.
Start the Week with Andrew Marr - now that's one show that would keep me in the car!
