    Andrew Wincott on Playing Adam Macy — "I've Been Waiting 20 Years for This Story"

    05/06/2026 | 25min
    Philippa sits down with Andrew Wincott, who plays Adam Macy in The Archers, for a deep dive into one of the most gripping storylines the show has had in years. Recorded on 2 June 2025 — so buckle up, more may have happened since.
    They discuss: why Andrew saw this succession story coming two decades ago; whether Adam is a principled farmer or a series of spectacular failures; what it was like to record the extraordinary four-person partnership meeting episode; Brian's King Lear qualities; the bombshell "you are not my children" moment; how much Adam really wants this for Xander; and whether Ian's advice has made things better or worse.
    Plus — Adam's ideal biscuit. It's darker than you think.
    Part two, with listener questions from the Facebook group, follows in two weeks.
    Topics covered: Adam Macy | Brian Aldridge | Home Farm succession | Debbie Aldridge | Partnership meeting episode | Jennifer's legacy | Sustainable farming | The Archers 2025

    Brian's Last Stand, Bubble Wrap Dreams & Rex Finds His Voice

    02/06/2026 | 15min
    This week in Ambridge (Sunday 31st May – Tuesday 2nd June), Philippa and Katie dig into the drama at Home Farm, where Alice is clutching at straws and Ed Grundy gets an unexpected job offer. Rex has a week of two very distinct halves — overdoing it with Alice's sobriety, then absolutely finding his voice with Brian in a way nobody saw coming. Stella makes a welcome return, and her honest chat with Brian is a highlight of the week.
    Tom and Natasha are officially bad at money. A climate-controlled bubble wrap greenhouse (starting at £50k, going up to a cool million), boots on eBay, and a passing suggestion to sell the business — it's not looking good. Meanwhile, Martyn's enthusiasm for management speak gives Ian a headache, but their relationship edges forward.
    Plus: biscuits get the appreciation they deserve, Ed might win the Borchester Show, and Philippa has seen the cast list for later this week and isn't saying a word.
    Stars and twits of the week, predictions, and the news that the interview with Andrew (who plays Adam) is out this weekend — and it's a corker.
    Coming soon: the second half of the Adam interview with your Facebook questions.
    Topics covered:
    Home Farm: Brian, Alice, Ed and the staffing crisis
    Rex and Alice's sobriety storyline
    Stella's return and her frank conversation with Brian
    Tom and Natasha's financial disasters (climate greenhouse, eBay boots, private school)
    Ian and Martyn's management-speak clash
    Star of the Week: Rex / Stella
    Twitch of the Week: Martin / Tom
    Predictions: Brian's collapse, Tom and Natasha going bust, the Borchester Show

    The Archers Does Race Across the World

    22/05/2026 | 27min
    In this very special episode, we imagine what would happen if The Archers met Race Across the World.
    To mark Lauren’s final regular episode, we choose our Ambridge contestants, send them racing from New York to New Delhi and back to Ambridge, and decide who would make it to the finish line.
    Expect:
    Tracy and Brad as serious contenders
    Chelsea proving she could win people over anywhere
    Justin and Lillian in matching tracksuits
    Helen and Tom falling apart almost immediately
    Kate chasing spiritual enlightenment
    George getting into trouble abroad
    Leonard, Ben, Jakob, Natasha, Susan and more thrown into the race
    We also ask who we’d personally choose as our Archers travel partner, with answers ranging from the practical to the unpredictable.
    A huge thank you to Lauren for all the laughs, chaos and brilliant Archers chat. She will be very much missed, but we hope to tempt her back for future specials.
    This episode contains Archers chat, mild chaos and a lot of questionable travel planning.
