Let me tell you about my special interest and favourite radio show BBC Radio 4's The Archers!!!! Please imbue the below with a tone of extreme glee:

BBC Radio 4's The Archers is a radio soap opera set in the fictional farming village of Ambridge. It was created in 1951 as an effort to get more farming listeners and to get more general audiences interested in farming due to the shortage of skilled farmers after ww2. The BBC tested out a variety of more dry farming programmes that failed to gain listenership, so they went to a farming conference and asked "hey what do you guys actually want from a radio show?"

And the consensus was that they wanted "a farming Dick Barton". Dick Barton was a spy drama which was half thriller and half domestic drama¹. While a farming spy thriller sounds very funny, they opted to instead make The Archers half domestic drama, half facts/debates about farming. Also they pilfered most of the writing team from Dick Barton lol.

The Archers initially had a very strong focus on the Archer family, and its cast broadened over time to now be a very wide ensemble. It is released in 15 minute segments per day, and as an omnibus² on Sundays. It is set in "the present", and always has been, so developments are happening in, kind of, real time. This means that there's a (now elderly) character who was in The Archers as a young woman is still present and the UK public has heard every part of her life, and her family's lives. There is a crazy web of dramas that is carefully recorded at the BBC and referenced as life events. For example, Nickie³ is a young mother who died of sepsis (rip) and recorded a message for her 3 year old child to listen to when he's 21. This message was then given to him literally 18 years later. Of real time. Listeners are very frequently life-long Archer fans, so there are people who heard both instances of this 18 years apart⁴. Isn't that cool!! They're keeping track of all the minutiae of a small village life from birthdays to anniversaries to that memorable stupid night out they had in their teens that their friends and family still reference to tease them. All for the sake of realism. And it works!

When The Archers was first airing, for quite a few years the cast and bbc offices frequently got post offering direct advice to the characters from members of the public who believed they were real people (or, were having fun doing some fiction writing). One very concerned letter writer offered one of the Archers come and stay at their house during a contentious unplanned pregnancy. For some of that time the cast were asked/encouraged to write back in character, but (thankfully) that practice has now stopped. Parasocial relationships have always been a thing lol.

The Archers has never been afraid to tackle big social issues. It was the first UK soap opera to have a gay wedding (with a civil partnership between Adam⁵ and Ian - contentious both due to gayness⁶ AND the class divide between them). It had a very well known and (unintentionally) well timed story about coercive control in abusive relationships with Helen Archer and her HORRIBLE ex (and now deceased haha fuck you) husband Rob which came to a head at the time the laws around coersive control were changing, so it became a central figure in explaining what this kind of abuse looks like, what it means, and how it affects people⁷. It had another big storyline about modern slavery in the UK, one about workplace bullying (very well done bc it was inflicted on Tracey whom everyone adores. And by everyone I mean. Me. I adores her. Let's go Horrobin-nation.), one really very affecting one at the moment about reconnecting with biological family very late in life, and the feelings that can bring up, and the fostering system of the 60s/70s. There was a really masterful and fairly subtle scene, after some of the Grundy family going "why in the world has our beloved George started going down the alt right misogyny pipeline when he's so surrounded by strong women??" and then it cut between the three Grundy households and in every single one of them the men waited around for the woman of the house to start making dinner and complained about it⁸.

All this might make The Archers sound like a long slew of trauma each week, but! There are always multiple ongoing storylines and SO MANY of them are comedy plots. You only get maybe 2-4 minutes of tragic stuff and then you cut away to such antics as "Linda Snell MBE is trying to put on a pantomime to her very very high artistic standards in one week while being actively sabotaged by a guy who hates pantomimes", "we were going to just have a small christmas as young flatmates but our parents all guilted us into an invite. And also the old woman who lives across the street.", "Hilda is a devil cat from Hell but someone from the family HAS to take her bc the elderly matriarch is going into an assisted living facility", "Stick in the mud, upper class The Prof. has a lodger of the rowdy laddish scottsman who wants to let his pet tarantula out to play" (the prof and jazza's relationship becomes one of the most touching and profound ones on the whole show btw). Every year there is a timetable of big village events (because, again, it's in real time!) that the audience gets to look forward to along with the characters because there's ALWAYS drama. Last year the village fête had a hostile takeover because Ed Grundy wanted to use it as aggressive marketing for his ferret business. Last year's Flower and Produce Show had an upset because a series of farcical events led to a table of pies getting destroyed, with only one remaining as the defacto victor¹⁰. And that's just from last year. Competition runs deep in this village.

As with any media I love, The Archers has its problems. It very much told from a white British normie perspective. It is set in a small rural village, so, statistically it is accurate to have it be 99% white, but it comes off as deeply self-conscious when there are non-white characters because (as an audio medium) it feels it has to clunkily find a way to say or remind the audience THIS CHARACTER IS BLACK or THIS CHARACTER IS ASIAN. I feel this doesn't efficiently utilise the strengths of an audio medium to be diverse - I had fully been picturing Welsh Natasha as south-asian bc she reminded me of a friend of mine until they introduced Ardil Shah and suddenly people were saying to him on first meeting "ah the vicar's wife is muslim..." and (really bad) "when I was a teenager I did a hate crime against an indian guy and I feel really bad about it" (??? is it Ahdil's job to absolve you???? Why put him in this position - and not interrogate in the show why it is weird to put him in this positon). Maybe they're concerned about the general public not clueing in to the fact that they're not all white if it's not spelled out very loudly in their first appearance, and they do then subsequently get storylines that aren't about race. It is true for small English villages that people will be Noticed for their ethnicity.

But Ambridge isn't a real village, it is an idealised one. If someone is really struggling to find housing, eventually the Ambridge Fairy (not a real character, just a fan term) will come along and oh look, conveniently an affordable living situation has opened up¹¹. Chelsea¹² gets an abortion and this is outed to the whole village, and there's only one or two people judging her harshly for it who eventually come around and apologise. Everyone rallies around making the Big Event go off despite the hitches! And I think more of that Ambridge acceptance and normalisation that it employs with those storylines should be extended to characters of colour. The general acceptance of south asian people in the UK increased from seeing - someone. I don't know her name I'm not a bake off head - just be happy and baking and a normal person. They could do this with the Archers, as they have already done with gay characters. Although, credit where it's due, I do believe they are doing just that with the rest of the Shah family and with Gay Paul's family.

Anyway. A big thing I love about The Archers is the intergenerational aspect of listening. Most people are introduced to it via family members (because the relationships and history are fairly complicated, it's hard to just dive in on an episode, and there's not really an obvious "start here, new listeners" place bc it's year-round, there aren't new serieses. Also as a new listener it can be hard to discern whose voice is whose and who is related to whom so sometimes you're going "are they flirting or are they cousins...? Who are they talking about...?" lmao). If you are talking to pretty much any old person in the UK, there's maybe a 70% chance they listen to or used to listen to The Archers, and can give exciting (to me) facts about characters previous storlines that I had no idea about bc to me they are "The Grandma" but to them they are "one third of a heated love triangle between two sisters and a guy, and a battle for parental approval that the other one definitively WON by dying young in a barn fire, and that pattern of child favoritism carried on through to her parenting". I am always discussing what's going on in the Archers with my parents (who also listen) and my book club (who don't).

If you want to learn more about The Archers. Listen to it if you can (it's on BBC Sounds, and on Itunes, idk how accessible it is outside the UK...). I know I said it's hard to get into but give it like 4 omnibus episodes and you'll have heard at least one complete short storyline and 4 in-episode short ones and you'll have gotten to know whoever is in those episodes. The history of their characters is an added bonus, not a requirement, and if it's important to the episode someone will say the relevant details to someone else bc they're all incurable gossips ❤️. And! You can read Flapjacks and Feudalism: Social Mobilty and Class in The Archers ed.s Cara Courage and Nicola Headlam (a book of essays on sociology through the lens of the archers. and the others in the essay book series, Flapjacks is just my favourite.) I also recommend Life on Air: A History of BBC Radio 4 by David Hendy, which only briefly and occasionally discusses The Archers but it always excites me when it does. Apparently someone was so pissed that The Archers timeslot was moved and nailed a dead fish and threatening letter to the comptroller's office door (relatable). There's also an Archers reaction podcast, TumTeeTum (named after singing along to the instrumental theme tune, although I personally go Bah bah duh bah duh bah dahhhh), a poisonous facebook group where people post the worst takes known to man and a new accompanying podcast where they interview the actors. I can't speak to the general quality of those 3 because I don't participate in them at all. My knowledge of the facebook group is from perusing it for research purposes and my general knowledge of facebook open communities. And! you can also type bbc radio 4's the archers into a search engine of your choice!!

¹when Dick Barton was being recast as Dick Barton the first actor was retiring, they did an open call for audition tapes and got one from an 8 year old who stated his qualification for the role as "I can shout really loudly". He did not get the part.

²all the segments collected together into one episode. This is how I listen.

³I actually might spell some names wrong bc. It's a radio show. Lol.

⁴not me, I only started properly listening about 6 years ago

⁵the guy who plays Adam is also voice actor for Raphael Balder's Gate 3. Reportedly also a pretty gay role lol.

⁶the current main cast Queer Ambridge Contingent are: Adam and Ian (long term married, have a little baby Xander through surrogacy, had a memorable small argument recently about how Ian is still kind of afraid to hold Adam's hand or kiss him in public even though it's Okay To Be Gay); Stella (CLOCKED her when she named her whippet "Weaver" after the woman in Alien. LESBIAN.) and her girlfriend Pip Archer (unlabelledly queer, has a little daughter Rosey who is Obsessed with Stella lmao); Rúairi (bisexual, was in a problematic sugar baby relationship with a much older woman LOL); Gay Paul the vet nurse (I am the one calling him Gay Paul no one in the show is. I call him Gay Paul because he has Gay Kevin from Riverdale energy (positive). He immediately befriended absolute Ambridge LEGEND Linda Snell MBE and had a rocky relationship with a guy who tried to strongarm him into an open relationship which Gay Paul did not want.); And I have my suspicions about newcomer Zainab. What with her not noticing/caring if teenage boys are interested in her but being deeply upset when her and Chelsea had a falling out on valentines day. I'm on the lookout. Honorable mention, Lilly's made up study-buddy Millicent who her mum became certain she was secretly dating because she'd use "studying with Millicent" as an excuse to be away from home to in fact date her SIXTH FORM ENGLISH PROFESSOR (WE HATE RUSS IN THIS HOUSE!!!!!!).

⁷I will say, I personally really did not like how they brought Rob back into her life for a while as he was terminally ill. The Archers falls back on "outsider arch villain" a little too often, and I think showing an abuse survivor happy and settled and firmly moved on without her abuser being a major player in her life was a more responsible path than He Will Always Get Some Power Over You Until He Literally Dies. But I'm not an abuse survivor, maybe some people felt seen and understood by this. It was also just geberally unpleasant to listen to lol.

⁸also he was ??? Rewarded ??? For calling his mum a stupid slut to her face by being given a new bedroom. Which he only asked for to get revenge on his female superior at work (who was renting the place his dad owned) for doing her job and telling him how to look after the pigs safely.

⁹shoes horses and suchlike

¹⁰ there is a recipie for the winning pie somewhere on the Internet, which my parents' friend who is MORE into the archers than me has reportedly made at least twice

¹¹ something interesting in how the archers is written is that there are class based catagories that are necessarily perpetuated for archetypal storytelling. The Aldridges are moneyed, upper class snobs. The Archers are middle class (they do frequently worry about losing x thing with an especially bad year, but they're land and business owners and run artisanal cheese courses). The Grundys are working class. They work at the tea rooms and pubs and farms that the Archers and Aldridges (and others) own. These strata include other families and intermingle - Jennifer Archer became Jenny Aldridge, for example. But the dynamic of upper middle working class has been preserved through every generation of The Archers (initially VERY insulting towards the bowing and scraping working class labourers, now the Grundys, Carters and Horrobins are arguably more the main characters than The Archers. But as the financial divide irl gets steeper between a Grundy and an Aldridge, it gets less and less easy to dismiss this Ambridge Fairy "it will be okay just keep working". The characters themselves have spoken about this to each other - Clarrie despaired that she and Eddie have been working multiple jobs their entire adult lives to make ends meet and might have to work until the grave. Every windfall they get to shore them up is eventually taken away from them or used up by the needs of living. But The Archers NEEDS to have good old salt of the earth types who aren't too depressed to move to be able to continue the age old comedy of stuffy stiff upper lip rich folk vs cheerful and honest poor folk that it's always engaged in. All this isn't necessarily a bad thing but it is interesting.

¹² we LOVE chelsea in this house!!!!

Don’t Use Did

    I do my best to be a good person and go out of my way to avoid negative/controversial topics. That’s an admirable goal, but I worry about accidentally writing something genuinely awful. Yes, I might upset the entire internet and worldwide legal community by using the word “did.” What is so bad about this humble word? Words can be acronyms, and this one is claimed by several organizations, including:

Department of International Development (UK government department)

Digital Image Design (Software Company)

Dissociative Identity Disorder (human psychology)

Damsels in Distress (Film)

Department of Irrigation and Drainage (Malaysia government department)

Dansk Ishockey Dommerklub (Denmark ice hockey)

Digitization and Interoperability Division (US Army data standardization office)

    Does this mean that if I publish an article titled “What did I do last week,” the Malaysian Department of Irrigation and Drainage will send the police after me? Of course not. They are a reasonable organization and understand the word did ranks 107 out of the most used words. Clearly, it is fair use.

    Not so fast. Dance India Dance (a competition reality show) is referred to as DID, and as part of its intellectual property protection efforts, it routinely sends out DMCA notices. True, but they only go after big organizations, not a humble person like me. Well…

    The informative article “What Did Ada Lovelace’s Program Actually Do” about the amazing 1815 computer programmer Ada Lovelace got a DMCA takedown notice:

    I would understand if the article related to dancing in India, contained their copyrighted script, or offered a copyrighted video from that program. Even worse, a blatant rip-off such as Dance Indiana Dance.

    But no, the word did asked a question about a long-dead programmer. What exactly happened? An automated search engine detected the word did, generated an automated email to a computerized DMCA system that sent a takedown notice to a web host that automatically deleted an article. This is the same heartless performance that Arnold Schwarzenegger performed when he played the Terminator. IE, no human interaction. Hasta la vista, baby. Of course, there is a bit of humor. Deleted by their invention.

    What does this mean? Should we stop using the word did? Are we now writing in a digital minefield? To answer this question, we must take a step back. Humans pass through waves of changes. In the 1950s, we sprayed DDT on everything, dramatically reducing pests and increasing crop yields. Yay? Years later, we learned about the errors in our ways and stopped using DDT.

    Copyrights allow me to (potentially) make money as an author by preventing other authors or publishers from stealing my work. For example, I cannot publish a Harry Potter book, copy a paragraph, or call it my own. This is why the DMCA exists, and I believe it is an excellent entity for authors, publishers, and booksellers.

    In time, the DMCA algorithms will improve, and the DMCA organization has already corrected the “did” flaw. So, all is well? Well, no.

    Take the word “predator.” Scientists have classified wolves as predators. So, let’s write a wolf book called “Predator.” General Atomic owns that trademark. What about the movie Predator, Predator generators, and Predator ski clothes? They all got or were sued. (I know this because I worked there.)

    This brings us back full circle. When writing, it is essential to research for copyrighted material and trademarks. Yet, we live in a modern age and must expect random automated systems to overstep common sense. Translation: Keep doing what you are doing until somebody yells at you. DID you think there would be another way to end this article?

     You’re the best -Bill

    January 18, 2025

    Hey, book lovers, I published four. Please check them out:

   Interviewing Immortality. A dramatic first-person psychological thriller that weaves a tale of intrigue, suspense, and self-confrontation.

    Pushed to the Edge of Survival. A drama, romance, and science fiction story about two unlikely people surviving a shipwreck and living with the consequences.

    Cable Ties. A slow-burn political thriller that reflects the realities of modern intelligence, law enforcement, department cooperation, and international politics.

    Saving Immortality. Continuing in the first-person psychological thriller genre, James Kimble searches for his former captor to answer his life’s questions.

    These books are available in softcover on Amazon and in eBook format everywhere.

UK secures £6.3B in data infrastructure investments

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/uk-secures-6-3b-in-data-infrastructure-investments/

UK secures £6.3B in data infrastructure investments

.pp-multiple-authors-boxes-wrapper display:none; img width:100%;

Four major US firms have announced plans to invest a combined £6.3 billion in UK data infrastructure. 

The announcement, made during the International Investment Summit, was welcomed by Technology Secretary Peter Kyle as a “vote of confidence” in Britain’s approach to partnering with businesses to drive growth.

CyrusOne, ServiceNow, CloudHQ, and CoreWeave have all committed to substantial investments, bringing the total investment in UK data centres to over £25 billion since the current government took office. These new facilities will provide the UK with increased computing power and data storage capabilities, essential for training and deploying next-generation AI technologies.

“Tech leaders from all over the world are seeing Britain as the best place to invest with a thriving and stable market for data centres and AI development,” stated Kyle.

The largest single investment comes from Washington DC-based CloudHQ, which plans to develop a £1.9 billion data centre campus in Didcot, Oxfordshire. This hyper-scale facility is expected to create 1,500 jobs during construction and 100 permanent positions once operational.

ServiceNow has pledged £1.15 billion over the next five years to expand its UK operations. This investment will support AI development, expand data centres with Nvidia GPUs for local processing of LLM data, and grow the company’s UK workforce beyond its current 1,000 employees. ServiceNow also plans to offer new skills programmes to reach 240,000 UK learners.

ServiceNow’s AI platform is already utilised by 85% of Fortune 500 companies and more than half of the FTSE100. In the UK, the company works with organisations including BT Group, Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team, and hundreds of public sector bodies such as the NHS and the Department for Work and Pensions.

Rachel Reeves, Chancellor of the Exchequer, commented: “This investment is a huge vote of confidence in the UK’s tech and AI sector, and is exactly the kind we want to see as we grow the economy. That’s what the International Investment Summit is all about too. Showing global investors and business that Britain is open for business.”

CyrusOne, a leading global data centre developer, announced plans to invest £2.5 billion in the UK over the coming years. Subject to planning permission, their projects are expected to be operational by Q4 2028 and create over 1,000 jobs.

AI hyperscaler CoreWeave confirmed an additional £750 million investment to support the next generation of AI cloud infrastructure, building on its £1 billion investment announced in May.

These investments follow recent commitments from other tech giants, including Blackstone’s £10 billion investment in the North East of England and Amazon Web Services’ plan to invest £8 billion in UK data centres over the next five years.

The UK government has been actively supporting the growth of data infrastructure and the broader tech sector. Last month, data centres were classified as ‘Critical National Infrastructure’ (CNI), providing the industry with greater government support. Additionally, the Tech Secretary appointed entrepreneur Matt Clifford to develop an AI Opportunities Action Plan, aimed at boosting AI adoption across the economy.

As part of the ongoing International Investment Summit, Prime Minister Keir Starmer is bringing together 300 industry leaders to catalyse investment in the UK. The summit will see discussions on how the UK can capitalise on emerging growth sectors including health tech, AI, clean energy, and creative industries.

Bill McDermott, Chairman and CEO of ServiceNow, said: “The UK is embracing technology transformation at scale. In this new age of AI, the country continues to be a global leader in driving innovation for the benefit of all its communities.

“Our investment accelerates the UK’s push to put AI to work, empowering people, enriching experiences, and strengthening societal bonds. Together, ServiceNow and our customers across the UK are delivering a future where technology benefits everyone.”

The series of investments and government initiatives bolstering UK data infrastructure aims to secure the country’s leadership in AI and technology innovation within Europe, and reinforces it as an attractive destination for international tech companies seeking to expand their operations.

Which Franchise Can Be Started With Minimum Investment in the UK?

The franchise industry contributes significantly to the UK economy, injecting a value worth 15 million GBP every ear. Thousands of aspiring business owners want to jump on this bandwagon to fuel their enterprising dreams. However, many future entrepreneurs lack the funds to establish elaborate business units. They seek low-investment business avenues that can help them achieve success. If you also want a low-cost option to jumpstart your business goals, an education franchise will be your perfect choice. The education sector is booming, with an increasing proportion of people seeking online education to upgrade their knowledge and skills. The best part for aspiring business owners is that an education franchise is a low-investment venture, especially if you choose the right one. Let’s break down how to find a franchise to start with a minimum investment in the UK!

Join BYITC Franchise Programme

https://supermaths.co.uk/profitable-education-franchise/

Why Choose an Education Franchise for Your Low-Investment Venture?

Education franchises offer programmes and courses to improve performance outcomes academically and otherwise. These courses can empower children with lifelong knowledge and skills to improve performance outcomes across different scenarios. For example, an Abacus maths franchise can help students hone quantitative skills. The rising popularity of these services makes this type of franchise an excellent choice for a future business owner. They also require minimal investment to start and operate, ensuring ease of operations and profitability.

Things to Consider While Choosing a Franchise with Minimum Investment

The UK market is full of education franchising opportunities. But how do you shortlist the best options and choose your best fit? The following parameters will help you simplify your search for a top-notch education franchise.

Look for Cutting-Edge Digital Solutions: Innovative digital capabilities can simplify business operations for franchisees. Top-notch web solutions and software applications are critical for quick and efficient service delivery. Using these digital tools will reduce your costs and minimise business complexities.

Seek Marketing Support: Getting marketing support from the franchisor can also minimise costs while setting up a franchise. If you start an Abacus maths franchise, you must seek guidance from the franchisor to understand your target market. Their marketing support can help you reduce customer acquisition costs and drive increased profits.

Training Support: Top franchisors offer comprehensive training modules to help franchise partners manage their operations. Adequate training is imperative for operational success in the education industry. Learning the right operational techniques will help you excel in this space and deliver excellent service to the students who enrol for the programmes. It will also help you minimise costs and drive efficiencies in your business processes.

Return on Investment: You should evaluate the RoI potential of a franchise business before making an investment. The breakeven opportunity should be quick and the RoI must be substantial to warrant your investment into the education franchise.

Product Portfolio: The franchise you choose should have a significant product portfolio that meets the current market demands. For example, English and Mathematics courses are extremely popular in the education market. Therefore, you should focus on buying a low-cost franchise that corresponds to these market trends.

Choose a Reputed Global Brand: Partnering with a credible brand will help you leverage its popularity and goodwill. For example, the British Youth International College (BYITC) is the best-known global brand for Abacus maths franchises. Establishing an alliance with such a credible brand will help you ensure success with a low-cost franchise.

Getting Started with a Low-Investment Education Franchise in the UK

Now you know why education franchises are some of the best low-investment options in the franchising industry. But how do you start your venture? You can initiate your journey to success by contacting the team at Super Maths and English. They bring BYITC’s industry-leading programmes in the franchise format, allowing students to improve their maths and English skills.
