With thanks to all of our contributors, our community of Academic Archers Research Fellows (aka our Facebook group and conference attendees, and you, dear reader), the team at Emerald, and to all the people of Ambridge who prove, year in, year out, to be such a fascinating and infuriating subject of study.

ABOUT THE EDITORS

Dr Cara Courage is a placemaking, arts, activism and museums academic and practitioner, and Head of Tate Exchange, Tate's platform dedicated to socially engaged art. Cara speaks internationally on topics covering the C21st museum, the civic and activist museum, socially engaged art in community and museum settings and arts and urban design, placemaking and planning and has published widely on these topics. Cara is author of Arts in Place: The Arts, the Urban and Social Practice (Routledge, 2017), and the co-editor of Creative Placemaking and Beyond (Routledge, 2018), and editor of Routledge Handbook of Placemaking (Routledge, 2021). More importantly, Cara is also co-founder/organiser, with Dr Nicola Headlam, of Academic Archers, and has co-edited three books on the programme, The Archers in Fact and Fiction: Academic Analyses of Life in Rural Borsetshire (Peter Lang, 2016), Custard, Culverts and Cake: Academics on life in The Archers (Emerald, 2017), and Gender, Sex and Gossip in Ambridge: Women in The Archers (Emerald, 2019). Brought up in a farming family, The Archers was a constant refrain in her grandmother's kitchen, much to Cara's chagrin at the time. Many years of working from home with BBC Radio 4 on in the background brought about a process of Archers-osmosis that eventually wore Cara down to become a fan, though her joy is found more in chastising those in Ambridge than celebrating them.
