关于此有声读物

Two stories of love, lust, happiness and heartache from Britain's longest-running and best-loved radio serial. While there are tears and traumas aplenty for some Ambridge residents, others find passion and fulfilment in these two stories of romantic rivalry. Pub landlord Sid Perks is led astray when his keep-fit regime at the local gym leads to a steamy affair with Jolene Rogers, a country-and-western singer with a figure strongly reminiscent of Dolly Parton. After a traumatic divorce from wife Kathy, Sid marries Jolene and they prove to be a successful partnership, transforming The Bull. But for Emma Carter, choosing a husband is not so straightforward. She finds herself in a state of emotional turmoil, torn between loyal, devoted Will Grundy and his dangerous bad-boy brother Ed. Her inability to pick one over the other brings about fraternal quarrels, a wedding, a family feud, a divorce and a paternity dispute over baby George... For Archers addicts and new listeners alike, the ups and downs and emotional storms of these two love stories make for riveting listening.

作者简介

The world's longest-running radio serial was first heard nationwide at 11.45am on 1 January 1951 and was billed in the Radio Times as 'the daily events in the lives of country folk'. The show's brief was to promote food production in post-war Britain, while also appealing to a much wider audience than just farmers. BBC producer Godfrey Baseley hit on the perfect formula, enlisting the writers of hit serial Dick Barton – Special Agent! to write the script. It was a runaway success, and after a mere four months The Archers took over Dick Barton's hallowed 6.45pm time slot, achieving audiences of 20 million by 1955. Over the years, the programme has continued to combine important agricultural issues with the romantic highs and lows, family feuds and comic moments essential to a soap opera. Although it lost its educational role in 1972, the programme is still the way many townsfolk learn about life in the countryside. It is now Radio 4's most popular non-news programme, and a much-loved national institution.
