Record a copy of the Archers off R4. It's recorded in an old fashioned

How come an everyday story of countryfolk escape entry to the excessive

Dunno. I usually listen to it in the car on the way home from work and
always have to turn the radio up. Which is a good sign. ;-)

I'd say it's such an institution that those who make it are left well

Pretty much spot on.

It's produced at The BBC's Birmingham Studios and, especially where the
archers are concerned, they've been doing things their own way since the
1950's - if William Smethurst's Book "The Archers" is to be believed.
