The Archers 2012 Calendar. Britain’s longest running radio soap opera, The Archers is broadcast on the BBC Radio 4. Billed as an "everyday story of country folk" with rural flavour despite the fact that it's recorded in the heart of the city of Birmingham! This classic square wall calendar opens out to reveal a month to view featuring some of the stunning and leafy countryside images depicting the rural setting and outstanding natural beauty from the area where the hits radio series is set. The perfect 2012 calendar gift for those who love nothing more than listening to the latest soap instalment!
