Ambridge is the village inhabited by the characters in TheArchers; it is close to Borchester, the county town of Borsetshire. The BBC maintains that these places are fictional, but *we know the truth*. But where exactly are these places? Careful examination of the broadcast material yields clues ... - To get to Ambridge from London by rail, one goes from Euston and gets off at Hollerton Junction, and the journey takes about 2 hours and 20 minutes. Birmingham is 1 hour 30 minutes from London, but that's an express train. Anyway, it's somewhere along here .
