Oi, you lot, lay off the Archers!

The Archers has a lot in common with a good folk club, e.g:
People in the Archers don't fluff their lines or have to apologise for delivering them badly.
The younger actors are sometimes a bit clunky but often improve.
Several of the older ones have beards.
The Bull in Ambridge sells real ale.
The plotlines (like songs) often have good stories and some humour.
The Archers deals with many issues to do with England's rural heritage.
It has being going for almost 60 years, which is longer than most folk clubs.
And best of all, it's traditional!

What more could you a folkie want from a radio drama?
