The Archers

Joy tries her best to talk Susan out of resigning from the Shop, eventually persuading Susan to talk to George before making a final decision. Susan then finds George with Amber on the Green and tells him about her decision to resign. George insists she mustn’t resign. He really appreciates her willingness to sacrifice something she loves for his sake, though. He then brings up her and Neil shopping him to the police, plus the engagement ring Susan gave Amber before Neil insisted on taking it back. George says he’s okay with Susan, but he still sees Neil as the enemy. Lilian tells Joy that Phoebe’s arriving from Scotland today and Kate is beyond excited, though Lilian hates the idea of being called a great-great-aunt. Joy then receives a text from Susan, wanting to meet later. When Susan turns up at The Bull Joy is delighted to hear she won’t be resigning after all and has at least partially reconnected with George. George takes Amber to a cocktail bar, insists on paying, but won’t tell her how he got the money. He then proposes to her again, this time with a ring of his own. Amber is awkward and George suspects something’s not right, supposing it’s to do with her parents’ disapproval. Amber agrees that’s the reason she’s been upset, but also thinks they shouldn’t rush into organising the wedding straight away. George suggests meeting her parents to try and get them to change their minds about him. Amber wants more time to think about it, though.
