On BBC Scotland just now!

Seems like they’ve picked a good bunch of farming families to follow again & good to see Emma & Ewan back again.
Don’t think much of the new narrator though. A bit wet & CBeebies’ish for my liking!!

We thought the same about the narrator. What did everyone think about the lorries crossing the flooded bridge off the farm? It made me nervous watching it and they aren't even my animals.

 

[Further a field]

Great series but I too was disappointed with the narration , the previous guy added alot to the enjoyment of the programme I thought

Just watching the 2nd program on catch up. Some good families on it this time, laga farm, the family milking cows at Stranraer etc. Hard working

Caught bits and enjoyed it. My daughter loves it.
I wasn't happy seeing and 8 year old working the sliding race gate though.

Should be on every day. If not an Amazon deal so I can watch episodes when I want. People who are salt of the Earth and the countryside will be all the poorer if they are ever all gone.

 

[Bertram]

Just a heads up, on now, BBC Scotland

That guy in Orkney seemed a good chap. Tough seeing the poor lamb with joint ill.

Agree on comments regarding narrator.

I'd of like to of seen a return to the young couple in the lake District. I don't know how they did it, but they were really cracking on.

Had to feel sorry for the 2 wife's when the asked each other how many cockerels when it was geese the had infront of them and the Clydesdale's don't breed from a mare that has had problems really not what the breed needs and foals will more than likely pass on said traits as for Orkney guy if he's 32 am 18 lol am surely they lambs are older so should not of been rung

I just seen on Emma Gray's Instagram that someone has reported her to the police for allowing their child to be on the quad with them (wearing a helmet). They will have been reported by:
a)Someone with a serious case of sour grapes
B)Someone with absolutely nothing going on with their lives.

It's makes you wonder what exactly they are supposed to film and whether it's even worth putting yourself out there for these programmes in the first place.

I know we all have our own personnel opinion on kids on quads/farms and in these programmes there are some H&S moments that make you wince but it's still there personnel choice on their own farm.

Police can't do fudge all- what crime has been committed?

Concern's about a safety of a child? or something along those lines?

If the people who reported it are really concerned they should have contacted the HSE, they just phoned the police as they seen it as a way to stick a dagger in I would assume.

Just bad apples with a grudge probably.

My child would be safer on a quad with me than left to their own devices to use it.

I blame the producers,we all know it happens but several times during this weeks program I winced at the health and safety issue’s they were letting themselves open to. Too many people ready to stick the knife in.
However I was shouting at the screen for them to lower those pallet forks before the little kid ran into them.

 

[JSmith]

Is this a new series that’s only on in Scotland at the minute??

There are hours of filming done just to get a few seconds of TV ,why do they show the bad bits like matt bakers haybob for one or born mucky life on the farm showing cows crossing a yard so they show the slow lame one's at the back
