I have listened to The Archers for years, my Mum used to listen ever since it started! I have been regularly listening since the early 80s; sometimes I give it a miss when I feel each storyline is becoming more unbelievable.
Helen/Rob storyline was excellent, and educated many people on coercive control. Both excellent actors, along with the actors playing Rob's parents.
I miss still Nigel, and I stopped listening for several months because of that storyline. Lizzie and Vince bring a smile to my face, and I enjoy Lillian's story, along with Brian and Miranda's effect on Justin.
George is trouble, and it worries me very much, he is 18 going on 19 and a young man. He does have positive male characters in his life, so I just don't understand him.
Alice's storyline is beyond me, and it will end horribly. I tend to catch up on Sunday mornings rather than listen every evening.
