These pages contain some of the history of the Great British institution that is The Archers and it's interactions with the real world since the programme started on January 1st, 1951. Many of these articles demonstrate a fascinating insight into the programs relationship with real political and social groups. Others give anecdotal accounts of the programs background and history.
