Afghanistan, January 2007.

We felt there were Taliban fighters coming through this complex called Jigramport.

A military operation that did not go to plan.

It was the most intense far far I've ever been in.

What we need to do is cut off the snake's head.

And a daring rescue attempt that defied belief, told by the soldiers who were there.

Right, I'm about to sit on a helicopter and fly into a Taliban fort.

The Fort, listen first on BBC Sounds. You're listening to Weddens Days episode. The Fort. Listen first on BBC Sounds.

You're listening to Wednesday's episode of The Archers from BBC Radio 4. After my squabble with Justin, I must admit I was rather grateful to you, Oliver.

Oh, why's that?

Well, arguing in church, isn't as bad as almost killing the vicar?

At least you gave the village something else to tut about.

Ah, well, the toxic corgette wasn't strictly Greg Gables' fault.

No, no, but on top of all your other flower and produce show woes,

you must wish you'd never agreed to host the damn thing.

Well, it's certainly not generated the goodwill that Dane had hoped for.

Oh, sorry about that. Everything sorted? Yes. Somebody accidentally used someone else's holter. It's all fine now.

Nice chatting with you, Brown. I ought to take Duke back to his stable, hadn't I, boy. Did you have a good hack?

Not too bad. Could have been longer. See you then. Yeah. All right, Oliver. Come on,

you. This way. Come on, you. So, you're sure you're all right picking up Martha from school?

Yes, Alice, fine. If you're worried about facing the other parents in the playground.
