Lovers of Ambridge will be able to get more involved in the lives of its residents in a spin-off series off The Archers.

The twice-weekly Ambridge Extra will make its debut on 5 April on the digital Radio 4 Extra (formerly Radio 7) and run for 13 weeks. It will delve in to the lives of those who tend to get sidelined by more established characters or have left the main show for an off-air life.

The BBC says the show can be enjoyed without any previous knowledge of The Archers.
