All About The Archers
Obsessed with Ambridge? So are we. All About The Archers — a fan podcast companion to BBC Radio 4's The Archers
What it is All About The Archers is a weekly fan-led podcast dedicated to The Archers — BBC Radio 4's long-running everyday story of country folk, broadcasting continuously since 1951 and the world’s longest-running soap opera. Set in the fictional English village of Ambridge, The Archers follows the lives of farming families and villagers including the Archers of Brookfield Farm, the Grundys, the Aldridges of Home Farm, and the wider community that gathers at the village pub, The Bull.
This is a companion podcast made by fans, for fans — not an official BBC production. It assumes familiarity with current storylines but welcomes listeners at any stage of their Archers journey, even beginners.
Hosts Philippa, Katie and Quentin — three enthusiastic Archers fans who bring warmth, humour, and genuine investment in Ambridge life.
