June Spencer, the only remaining member of the original cast, appeared on the Radio 4 soap in May 1950, but has since resigned despite pleas from BBC bosses. However, she is far from being the only long-serving cast member who has brought Ambridge to life. More than a dozen actors have appeared on the show for more than three decades, with fellow Archers legend Patricia Greene (Jill Archer) only marginally behind June Spencer with 65 years under her belt. FEMAIL reveals the actors who have appeared on the radio serial for the longest time. Patricia Greene, Angela Piper, Judy Bennett, Brian Hewlett, and others are among the top rowers pictured from left to right. Patricia Gallimore, Charles Collingwood, Trevor Harrison, and Timothy Bentinck are in the bottom row, from left to right.
