so they moved it to radio and called it the archers?
and simply dropped the light hearted element and changed the name to eastenders for its return to television?

Ha, in a way yeah
The Archers was originally developed after the war to inform farmers about new technologies and best practice, seemingly something they still try at times to do now. There were a few short lived soaps around this time on the radio and tv all with differing approaches. In fact Coronation Street wasn't seen as a soap by its producers for a long time, serial drama and even documentary-drama being preferred!
