At the centre of the week is Kirsty’s possible pregnancy, as Helen inserts herself into events in the way only Helen can, while Alice becomes increasingly fixated on Brian's health and Adam is left crushed after yet another setback at Home Farm. We also get into: Kirsty’s missed period and whether this could be pregnancy, perimenopause or something else Helen being overbearing, exhausting and impossible to avoid Tony discovering just how much the Angus cows made at market Alice pushing the dementia theory further Rex’s drunken behaviour and why it could change things with Alice Brian’s increasingly appalling treatment of Adam Why Adam’s hopes for Home Farm were so painful to hear unravel The sense that the Ruairi and George fallout is still building towards something bigger Plus our regular features: Star of the Week Twit of the Week Predictions This episode contains spoilers for listeners who are not up to date with this week’s episodes of  The Archers .
