About this episode
As the Ambridge storyline about historic child sex abuse comes to an end, Roger Bolton hears audience views and discovers how The Archers production team handled this difficult story. The Editor of The Archers, Jeremy Howe, explains how the story was planned and why a much loved character, the retired academic Jim, was chosen to be at the centre of the plot.
Also, a father and daughter try - and fail - to agree on whether some new radio comics on Radio 5 Live are actually funny.
And media analyst Claire Enders spells out the existential crisis facing the BBC, as listeners comment on the future of the licence fee.
