Radio Times October 18th-23rd 2026
The week begins with a big reveal: the transport for Pip and Stella’s wedding. But from then on the surprises are not so pleasant. David fears history may be about to repeat itself (an Archer jilting their bride at the altar? A Pargetter falling off the Lower Loxley roof while fixing a banner?) and Ruth receives a phone call that leaves her reeling - not from a height, we hope.

Their first meeting, five years ago - when a crow’s entry into the attic at Brookfield got everyone into a flap - didn’t bode well. Yet this week, Pip and Stella - The Archers’ first lesbian couple - tie the knot. The pair are, quite literally, in transports of delight, but a wedding isn’t a wedding without some trouble and strife, not least for Pip’s family. When Ruth gets a bombshell phone call, Ben tries to pick up the pieces.
There’s turmoil at Lower Loxley too, when Elizabeth faces a situation that makes her famously stiff upper lip wobble. The family rally round but the future looks uncertain.
Also in Ambridge, Eddie and Clarrie find themselves fighting a losing battle, and another resident is in a pretty desperate situation.

Eh? Widderbeth Elizabeth? If her upper lip was ever stiff, it can only have been the Botox. Although a punch in the mahth would probably do the trick. Bagsy first to try that.
