Welcome back to Ambridge! In today's episode of The Archers (4th August 2026), things get a bit "sticky" for Neil Carter as he finally realises Bert Fry might have been pulling his leg all along. From Scandinavian liquorice to "specialist" radio stations, has Neil been "had good and proper"?
Meanwhile, the Grundy cider tradition continues as Kira learns the magic of the harvest and the secrets of the Wassail. She’s even got a secret weapon planned for the Borchester Show—a cider cake that’s sure to ruffle some feathers among the Ambridge bakers.
