| - Jennifer Aldridge (also Archer) is a fictional character from the BBC Radio 4 soap opera The Archers. The character first appeared in 1951. The role was played by a variety of actresses, until Angela Piper joined the cast in June 1963. As of 2022, Piper has been on the show for 59 years and is currently the second-longest running cast member. Jennifer is the daughter of Jack Archer (Denis Falwell) and Peggy Woolley (June Spencer) and the mother of Adam Macy (Andrew Wincott), Debbie Aldridge (Tamsin Greig), Kate Aldridge (Perdita Avery) and Alice Carter (Hollie Chapman). Jennifer has featured in some of the show's most high-profile and controversial storylines, mainly involving her family or her relationship with husband Brian Aldridge (Charles Collingwood). Throughout her almost six-decades on the programme, Jennifer has experienced what some consider the usual ups-and-downs of soap opera characters. During her teenage years in Ambridge, she had a dalliance with the local cowman and later the birth of their son out of wedlock, a divorce, her marriage to wealthy landowner Brian Aldridge, coping with his numerous affairs, the loss of her Home Farm farmstead and many financial woes. Newspaper, The Derbyshire Life, has called Piper one of the "most recognisable and distinctive voices in Britain", while Piper herself calls Jennifer "capable, caring, family-oriented, well-groomed and more intelligent than many are prepared to admit". The Archers official website describes the character as someone who enjoys "bragging about her children's successes" and dislikes "anything that endangers her social status". The character's widespread popularity also lead Piper to write Jennifer Aldridge's Cookbook, selling more than 40,000 copies. (en)
