72. Succession at Brookfield

Emma Freud is joined by Felicity Finch, who plays Ruth Archer, farmer and Bake Off contestant Mike Wilkins, and tax expert Barry Jefferd to discuss the inheritance of Brookfield. Is Pip the favourite child? Should Stella push for a pre-nup?

Listeners share their suggestions for Pip and Stella's nuptials, and Emma quizzes Felicity on Ruth's wedding from 1988. We revisit Ruth's hen party, awkward wedding gifts, and badly behaved guests.

Emma also digs into the archives to solve the mystery of why two young New Zealanders appeared in Ambridge one summer...
