	archers of loaf \| alias records
		The Archers have set themselves apart from the masses musically by displaying a distinctive style in their songwriting; they maintain their unmistakable sound while continually exploring new territory, especially with their last release "White Trash Heroes".
		The Archers also included some of their quietest songs to date with the poignant "Chumming the Oceans" and the murky, dreamy lament "Form and File".
		Spin noted "The Archers are champions of the day after R.E.M. and Sonic Youth's tomorrow...they play folk-noise punk that's a relief from the secondhand doom, tissue paper sexiness, and wooden rage all around them." A great band was growing and changing within their own sound.

	NG London/Recent Acquisitions/Sir Henry Raeburn, 'The Archers'
		'The Archers' is one of a small number of outstanding portraits from the early part of Raeburn's career, in which he employed an exceptionally accomplished and subtle fusion of arresting compositions and dramatic treatment of light and shade to create a sense of intimacy between the spectator and the sitters.
		Robert and Ronald Ferguson became members of the Royal Company of Archers in 1792 and 1801 respectively and the contemporary revival of archery as a fashionable sport appears to have served as inspiration for the composition.
		The National Gallery is delighted to have been able to acquire this painting, which enables visitors to Trafalgar Square to appreciate the role of Scotland in the story of European art at this period.

	The Archers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Archers is set in the fictional Midlands village of Ambridge close to Borchester, the county town of Borsetshire, an imaginary shire situated between the (actually contiguous) real counties of Worcestershire and Warwickshire, south of Birmingham in the West Midlands.
		Killing off Grace Archer was widely seen as a "spoiling" operation by the BBC; the cast had realised something was going on when the decision was made to record the episodes in London rather than Birmingham, and the episode was broadcast on the night of ITV's debut.
		In early years her character was the hippy of the Archer family, her first child, Adam (now back in Ambridge after many years living in Africa and firmly out as gay) being the result of a fling with a cowman, Paddy Redmond.

	Powell and Pressburger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The pair named their production company The Archers, and cemented their partnership by adopting a joint writer-director credit for their next film, One of Our Aircraft is Missing (1942), which they also produced.
		At any time, and particularly at the present, the self respect of all collaborators, from star to prop-man, is sustained, or diminished, by the theme and purpose of the film they are working on.
		The Archers were always much more than just Powell and Pressburger themselves, they were a group of some of the most talented film makers around at the time.

		The Telegraph staged a debate of the proposition, "The Archers is an everyday story of country folk", a statement that received a desultory endorsement - three raised hands in a packed audience - at the start of the proceedings and substantially less than a majority at the conclusion.
		The Archers deployed two of its biggest guns, Charles Collingwood, a genial and funny raconteur who is nothing like Brian Aldridge, the serial adulterer he has played on the radio for 28 years, and Graham Harvey, its agricultural story editor and a celebrated author of books about the countryside.
		Thomson argued that The Archers was the "Crabtree and Evelyn of soaps" and it did not represent the bleakness of farming in its present dire state.

		With The Archers, though, I think there is a further explanation — one that deals with the strange appeal of the series to liberal intellectuals like Stephen Fry.

	Bible Study - Archers
		An archer was one who used a bow and arrow for hunting (as many still do), or warfare (as some still do; special forces of various nations sometimes use crossbows for near-silent attacks, such as taking out sentries one by one prior to a full-scale attack on a base or compound).
		During Bible History, archers were a powerful element of an army, particularly against swordsmen and spearmen who did not have the effective range of an archer.
		"And the archers shot King Josiah [see Josiah's Reforms]; and the king said to his servants, "Take me away, for I am badly wounded." So his servants took him out of the chariot and carried him in his second chariot and brought him to Jerusalem.
