Julie Beckett – The Archers Unseen: A Secret History of Ambridge

- Main Information
A peek behind the curtains of the UK’s most well-known village, with a writer who’s been working in Ambridge since 1998.
Location by location, via the Bull and the occasional barn, Julie Beckett takes us behind closed doors and picks up on all sorts of whispers around money, births, deaths and marriages, and romance and sex (often in inappropriate places …). Every relationship, each personal triumph and disaster, and all the hopes and dreams of a community over the years are folded into the personal stories of the characters we know so well today. An event which Archers devotees cannot miss!
