Route B has to be turned down, because the Archers wouldn't be the Archers, without the bally Archers ! Personally I think that David and Ruth should bundle her old Mum into a sack and take her back down the M1 at high speed. Flipping silly storyline ...they haven't really explained how Route B would be so ruinous to the farm in the first place. Lots of farms have roads going through them.
I can't see Roy and Hayley having a reconciliation myself. I'm afraid that Roy has burnt all his boats behind him now. He is like a love sick old dog, fit only for shooting. Wonderful story line though !
I think its time Tom came back from Canada....now that John's son seems to have got his feet firmly under the table, there is endless material for a fight here.
Mind you, I never really liked Tom...arrogant little tit if you ask me. He should have had his a r s e kicked a long time ago.
