Tonight's Real Time episode of The Archers put Harrison's persistent, inappropriate courting of Fallon at centre stage, with the storyline showing the emotional fallout for Fallon and wider tensions in Ambridge. The episode was the programme's second Real Time instalment of the year after the Home Farm meeting. Listeners criticised Harrison's behaviour as stalking and inappropriate while debating whether Fallon provoked some reactions by demanding details of his new relationship with Lily. Posts noted that Lily is Kenton's niece and that Harrison's fling with her has intensified the sense of betrayal for Fallon. On the Emma Freud Archerd podcast, Lily actress Katie Redford said she was teased at a wedding for having slept with Harrison, a comment that listeners referenced in discussions about the plot. Several contributors called the Lily/Harrison pairing preposterous and said the storyline leaves Fallon stuck between wanting him gone and struggling with the breakup's emotional fallout.
