It seems that, in The Archers, the words “legacy” or “secure the future” are actually euphemisms for greed. Brine is doing exactly what he wants to do and looking for ways to justify it, which is pretty much what we all do most of the time.
Alice is indeed irritating. I can accept she is has a good knowledge of aeronautical engineering. That is what her quals are in. But how exactly does that transfer to farm machinery. Not that it can’t be done with time and a bit of extra training, I imagine a lot of engineering is fairly similar but she has only been working for 2 years and now she is also an expert on agriculture in general?
Agree with your assessment-I know everyone does serve themselves ultimately but just find Brian so irritating right now. After being such a git to Adam who had warned them that there would be no miracles in the business-now he just wants to abandon a years full work at the first sign of things not going his way? If I was an investor in the whole enterprise I would be pissed- a full year of being sold on this and then suddenly a full swerve backwards?? Just seems like a waste of time and effort. I understand why adam seemed heartbroken and pip was stunned. I was sick of hearing about herbal lays(still have no idea what they are)that is all people talked about for YEARS and all of that was for naught? I can only imagine if I had worked for months on something and then brian says it is a no go and that is the final word. And then suddenly he has a grand plan after years of just being a country squire -now he gets to be the boss who pulls out the plan for major profit and Adam should just shut up! So infuriating.
Yeah they are just making Alice as big a cheerleader for making farming a matter of industrialisation and machinery with no idea as to how farms work or practical experience. She just seems so smug with her marriage and career and above the little people as Brian.Profoundly irritating and not in a fun or comic way like kate (which I often compare her to).
