Archers summary for 25 Apr 2018

Headline: “Emma makes a breakthrough.”

Emma did no such bloody thing. Emma did nothing at all to make anything improve. Emma listened as Will said, “I shouldn’t have said what I did,” and replied, “No, you shouldn’t have.”

She has no idea how to accept an apology. Graceless cow.
