So who plays Henry? I expect it's just one of the actors putting on a child's voice (badly). In fact it's so bad, I expect the actor was advised/insisted that s/he not be credited
That's quite a commute to Brum.

The omnibus edition is on now.
I'm old enough to remember when the BBC televised "The Fosyte Saga" (stupidly done on the cheap in black and white) in the 1960's, the whole country was divided into "Soames versus Irene" when Soames )played by Eric Porter) raped his ice-maiden wife (played by Nyree Dawn-Porter). Soamesites and Ireneites clashed everywhere.
I think the Beeb have been looking for another "dirty Den" for years, totally politically incorrect, taking his stepson hunting, trying to send him to a private boarding-school, acting coldly towards the biggest Gay in the Village, who in his turn is luved by everyone despite his promiscuity.
And where is the lesbian interest here? Has ANY character in "The Archers" ever displayed any overt lesbian tendencies? The script carefully emphasises that Kirsty is "straight"...whereas even the BBC announcers have hinted that Rob Titchenor is not safe around his adopted family.
Parodied by Tony Hancock so memorably in "The Bowmans"... "Oi've got manglewurzels..."
So even more like "Soames v Irene". And that of course ended up with Irene marrying Jolyon ( Kenneth More) who is (was) Soames' cousin. And turning the Forsytes into two camps. Perhaps that's what they want the Archers to become, storylines for years then. Burned barns, savaged sheep...

This programme is a national disgrace! It's Helen who is on trial, not Rob. Rob's a decent cricketer and I'm sure is a closet Albion fan. Helen, on he other hand is a an Archer and thought to be a distant relative of a certain Archer associated with B&HA ...........................
