- Awful adverts ruining listening
The prolonged and aggressive adverts that have started running either side of this and other podcasts on this platform are ruining listening. Do we really need to be pushed to buy in every small aspect of our lives? I used to listen to the Archers every morning; it is now least-relaxing start to the day and means I’ll likely stop listening and using the Apple podcast app. Please stop imploring us to go to TURKIYAAA. Please stop us having to endure Ray Winston. The ads are half the length of the ... more

United Kingdom4 days ago - Give George a chance
OK it’s only a story but... it’s dreadful the way villagers in Ambridge are treating George, who after all, has paid the price for his mistakes - and let’s not forget, on that night when he acted in panic, starting a chain of wrong decisions, he had been trying to help Alice, whose destructive behaviour was really the catalyst to this storyline. Will none of them remember that?

Apple Podcasts5Kelly 🇮🇪🇵🇸United Kingdom19 days ago - More please
I don’t know what everyone is annoyed about. I absolutely love the adverts. It’s just a shame that I have to then put up with 15 mins of some drama about the country side. I mean who actually wants to listen to that.
In all seriousness though. The only thing that would make the Archers better would be the BBC recording the show in Dolby Atmos.
