Enjoyed the first two episodes of "This Farming Life" tonight. Will watch the other two plus "Lady Lairds" tomorrow and Thursday. Between these, "The Mart" and "The Croft", I don't recall so many programmes on farming before.

Also, Addicted to Sheep, was an excellent programme-it was featured on country file a while back.

There also used to be lambing live with kate humble and adam henson on bbc. Also kill it, cook it, eat it. You need to google them both they where both excellent!

This latest farming program is the best by far, no all knowing presenters hyping everything up, just a fai r view of farming life.

I agree. The presenters are often more interested in putting themselves across rather than the subject matter.  Adam Henson is an exception but then he was a farmer before he became a presenter.  Farming doesn't need people bouncing around being enthusiastic all over the place.

Really?

I'm enjoying the series as well. Particularly the couple with the croft.

Sorry, not making myself clear. Differentiating between professional presenters paid to be enthusiastic about anything they're presenting, from the Boat Race to Crufts, and people who are genuinely passionate about the subject concerned.

I've no problem with a smiling face, but Ellie wearing her hair loose when she's around machinery I do object to.  It sets a bad H&S example, and is of course putting her life at risk, should she get the hair wrapped around a pto.  Still, she's taken to wearing her hair up far more often now since I pointed out the problem to the Beeb  .  I'm not usually a complainer, but when it comes to farming I do care.

I too am loving all the farming/countryside programs at the moment. Is a bit of a distraction from my own small holding though and makes me want more space, although 3.5acres is really enough for us at the moment.
