Switched it off tonight as soon as they started waffling on about the beavers

Was the previous tenant booted out to make way for this charade?

Expensive crop, Beavers
2000 metres mesh fence. bottom 2ft buried & covered with stone

Got to be over £20 / metres = £40,000

I’m not watching the show but…

Are the (prospective) tenants expected to be involved in ‘looking after’ / managing the beavers?

If so, who will be pocketing the revenue from the many visitors that will be willing to part with substantial sums of cash to have a ‘guided tour’ of the beaver habitat?

Hans Porkson retired maybe 3 years ago

Not sure whats been happening since then, NT been doing up the house, has the land been let short term ?

 

[ajcc]

Don't think so. Though if I got the tenancy I might hire t them to do the beaver visits

Felt for the couple knocked out tonight

I think it’s a bit like a viva exam. They have reviewed the business plan and made a provisional decision. At the interview you might go ‘up’ a grade ie you can stay, if you have interviewed well but they probably don’t chuck you out as a result of the interview alone.

They have made it clear they expect some changes to the business plans for those have got through first interview. Good test for their flexibility as well as correcting errors.
