The Ambridge Socialist
6th August
Class Collaboration at the Fete
The Ambridge Socialist thought and thinks that a ferret based Ambridge fete is just the thing to bring a piece of proletarian glamour to the village. However for an unknown reason Eddie Grundy claimed that organising the fete had got beyond him. He has been forced into a partnership with leading Ambridge petty-bourgeois Lynda Snell.
The Ambridge Socialist Fete Tips: enjoy the ferrets and visit the rewilding stall
The Youth
Socialists know that the youth are the way forward. They have energy, time and ideas to change the world (sometimes). Clearly the Archers scriptwriters share this view hence we are hearing more from Mia, Chelsea, Brad and er George. Whether this will actually attract younger listeners is one thing but it’s certainly true that the Ambridge generations need to move on.
Cheese
Helen and village idiot Tom are trying to secure the cheese contract for the new Grey Gables. Ardil who for unknown reasons has decision making powers (surely it should be the head chef or would be if Ardil hadn’t just sacked them) seems to have a range of producers in mind. The Ambridge Socialist suggests threatening Ardil with a local boycott unless he features local produce.
Dogs
Ed who seems to specialise in dispensing with the dogs of Ambridge has hit Weaver with a trailer(accidentally it should be noted) and the greyhound has had to be destroyed. Paul (sous-vet) had taken photos of the dog just before the accident and it was all a bit sad. The Ambridge Socialist however thinks there should be more cats in the Archers.
Meanwhile however the Daily Mail thinks Friday’s episode which featured Weaver being put down showed that the Archers is Woke. The Ambridge Socialist will investigate…
