ARCHERS UPDATE
In their own separate ways, Josh and Freddie are hoping an Easter Bunny with ready cash will hop into their lives. Both of them have plans, but neither has enough of the folding stuff to turn those dreams into Ambridge reality. The other Easter Bunny, whom some of us find a little creepy, continues to hop around the village, possibly hoping for another frisky frisking from Lily. The approach of Easter brings Ruairi back to the village, prompting the younger Ambridge set to gather round to hear tales of life in That London, but will their rural ears be prepared for what he has to say? Meanwhile, the mystery guest at Grey Gables – who may or may not also be the Easter Bunny – continues to put noses out of joint.
