Dumteedum is a podcast about the BBC soap opera The Archers. I co-host it with the comedy scriptwriter Lucy Freeman. Each show features a monologue from Lucy, listener calls and our reflections on the week’s events and gossip in the fictional village of Ambridge, the home of the rural soap with an irreverent but affectionate tone. Supported by an engaged community always ready to offer commentary and plot predictions, we summarise and dissect each week’s stories and the issues they raise with perceptive insight and wit.
The podcast that appears to be about the long-running BBC soap but is actually mostly about the listeners and their lives. Dumteedum is not ‘obsessed by’ The Archers – it simply takes an unduly close interest in the goings-on of the inhabitants of Ambridge, in the rural heart of the country.
One of the most surprising things about the show is the support it has offered listeners suffering from depression or survived abuse, which mirrors storylines in the show.
Community is writ large with Dumteedum, we have done 4 live shows at the BBC social club and the Birmingham Town Hall in front of an audience, and numerous meet ups, In New York, Toronto, London, Oxford, Bristol, Newcastle and San Fransisco. Dumteedum Meet ups
Currently, the show has over 350 5 star iTunes reviews ratings. Social media is an important channel for us: our followers on Twitter are highly engaged, there’s a lot of retweeting and conversation.
Just before Christmas in 2014, we held an awards ceremony for Dumteedum. It was a mark of the success of the podcast and the interest and loyalty it’s engendered in just six months that our listeners travelled from all over the country to attend, as did The Archers actors and scriptwriters. The Dumteedum Awards Show was live-streamed with 1100 views.
Brilliant @DumTeeDum this week. Made even the endless M6 seem a joy…a juicy joy 😉
