This farming life

[steveR]

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!!

Oh God, not another one...

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

Do you think the person doing the editing has no clue about what they are screening?

I don't know anything about Clydesdale horses but I take it they are quite valuable.!
I don't think I would give my limmy cows a wash before they calve!

 

[neilo]

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

I was saying just that about the Clydesdale mare to Mrs NeilO. Is it a coincidence that they breed Suffolk sheep too?

Going by the state of her mane, I don’t suppose it’s a weekly occurrence.

TBF the Blacks are excellent stocksmen. One of the few farmers in that part of Fife to keep big numbers of stock. Ronnie, the father, very very able when in his prime

so, tell me, the accent of the people from Orkney sounds Irish to me?

I can't stand Matt Baker, and his narration is pants as well. I don't know how you guys manage to watch this BBC Blue Peter'ed bilge.

nothing like it , deal with a couple of irish lads and struggle on the phone some times , bloody mobiles dont help

 

[Willie adie]

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.

From what was aired I think HSE would have had a field day there, maybe they thought discretion was the better part of valour

They ought to get David Lamb off Come Dine With Me,brilliant narrator and a fitting name

The orkney guy ,who has built the conveyer when ringing lambs ,is quite clever ,
needs a patent on it

He’ll have a job patenting a design he’s copied from commercially available kit.
Fair play though. I suspect it will have cost about one tenth of buying one.

 

[Bald n Grumpy]

Haven't watched episode yet but have seen him in a video somewhere talking about the lambing box he had made for the front of his quad

 

[flywheel]

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

Sean was 32 when filming started
