Career-wise, all her stars seem to be aligned with Rachel winning a minor journalism award and been given a small promotion at work, but emotionally, she’s still adapting to life as a single woman once more. And while all seems to be going well in the office, with even Rob Kingsbury softening his attitude to her, Rachel does tread on the main newsreader Mary Masterson’s toes with a fashion faux pas…

At least you’ll get to hear an entire chapter in one session with this latest instalment being a shorter chapter than usual.

But of course, being an entire chapter HAS meant extra work for Fletch this week – FIVE male characters feature, so he’s been a busy boy indeed.

In the second half of Chapter Six, we see the fallout of Rachel’s first news reading attempts and the reactions from other members of the news team.

There’s one bright moment though – a welcome development in Rachel’s friendship with Mitch…

A challenging week for Alan Fletcher too – playing FOUR male characters! Including the voice of the slightly sinister but anonymous letter-writer!! WHO could it be? Can you guess??
