Victory at Ambridge - Part 2
Travel back in time to 1944 Ambridge for a thrilling, wartime prequel to The Archers. At Brookfield Farm, with eldest son Jack away in the army, Dan and Doris Archer worry about Jack’s pregnant wife, Peggy, stuck in bomb-stricken London. Should they invite her to Ambridge? How will a city girl like Peggy cope with living in the sticks? Meanwhile, Brookfield land girl Wanda is embracing rural life, particularly when dashing RAF war hero Max Gilpin moves to the village. Village life continues against the backdrop of the seemingly unending war. However when a series of ancient prophecies are unearthed, predicting death and destruction, the residents of wartime Ambridge (played by the cast of The Archers) are drawn into solving a cryptic mystery which sets the village alight. Dramatised from the novel by Catherine Miller, Victory at Ambridge is a vivid portrait of village life in England at a turning point in history. Dan Archer .... Timothy Bentinck Doris Archer ....
