Few BBC programmes prompt such passionate feedback as Radio 4's The Archers – but the Ambridge umbrage could soon be no more as the corporation has said it plans to shut down the show's online messageboard. Naturally, the Archers lot are up in arms, according to the Daily Mail. "I can only conclude that the BBC does not like the way certain storylines have been received here," vented one Radio 4 listener. However, the corporation maintained that the number of people regularly using its messageboard has "reduced greatly," to below a thousand. Monkey has a feeling this racy plotline will run and run.
