Just before Christmas 2010 I was invited to photograph Tom Archer from BBC Radio 4’s epic radio soap, The Archers.<\/p>\n

Although it was nothing to do with the highly publicised 60th Anniversary of the show, it was great catching up with a leading actor behind the soap opera that has seen through more British history than any other soap on TV or radio.<\/p>\n

Tom (his name in real life too) has played a leading role in this quintessentially British drama for 13 years.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of shots from the session.<\/p>\n
