16 min - BONUS: Meet the scriptwriter who wrote this week
Today we interview SARAH HEHIR who is a scriptwriter for THE ARCHERS and wrote THIS WEEK ending 20th October 2023!
We discuss some of the scenes we have heard this week, characters, plot lines and much more. 15 minutes on your podcast player and longer on YouTube.
We'd like to mention that Sarah has a play touring the Balkans at the moment that is also set in Manchester and they’d love to bring this play to the UK.
It called “The Shadow Garden” and tells the story of the Bogujevci family: the first children to give evidence in a war crimes tribunal. This tribunal gives shape to the shifting narrative, slipping between time, place, reality and imagination. The shadow garden exists on stage as a parallel world of memory and alternate futures .
With one foot in Manchester and one in Kosovo, the family occupies a very private space in a very public arena. Through the children who survived, we learn about their loss and the resilience is takes to seek justice against the odds. Accounts of war are largely dominated by male military voices; this play celebrates the kind of power that doesn’t sit in the weight of a gun. The Shadow Garden is a collaborative, multi-media show developed with an international team and produced by Gjilan Theatre.
Sarah also has a play called “The Facility” published by The English and Media Centre for Key Stage 3 students. Its a contemporary play inspired by Antigone.

About All About The Archers
From the publisher's feed
Obsessed with Ambridge? So are we. All About The Archers — a fan podcast companion to BBC Radio 4's The Archers
What it is All About The Archers is…
a weekly fan-led podcast dedicated to The Archers — BBC Radio 4's long-running everyday story of country folk, broadcasting continuously since 1951 and the world's longest-running soap opera. Set in the fictional English village of Ambridge, The Archers follows the lives of farming families and villagers including the Archers of Brookfield Farm, the Grundys, the Aldridges of Home Farm, and the wider community that gathers at the village pub, The Bull.
This is a companion podcast made by fans, for fans — not an official BBC production. It assumes familiarity with current storylines but welcomes listeners at any stage of their Archers journey, even beginners.
Hosts Philippa, Katie and Quentin — three enthusiastic Archers fans who bring warmth, humour, and genuine investment in Ambridge life.

- Guest interview episodes: occasional in-depth conversations with cast members (past guests include Emerald O'Hanrahan, who plays Emma Grundy)
- Occasional emergency episodes - when events later in the week in Ambridge need an urgent response.
- Also available on YouTube
Regular segments Star of the Week · Twit of the Week · Listener predictions · Listener Q&A · Food chat (a nod to The Archers' famous culinary references)
Topics covered Ongoing storylines, character motivation and development, relationship drama, family conflict, farming and rural life, village mysteries, long-running plot arcs, and speculation about what comes next.
