| 0:16.0 | Welcome to Ambridge on the couch and in-depth look at the archers with me. |
| 0:24.5 | Except it's a shame that people miss out on the start where we do our real in-depth bits |
| 0:28.4 | that we can't put in the show. |
| 0:29.9 | But you'll never know what we said about this week of the archers. |
| 0:35.8 | And in-depth look at the arches with me. |
| 0:37.8 | Jeff Thomas. Well, we're not that diplomatic, are we? Let's face it, for the rest of the time. So, you know, you're not missing much, really.
