I'll have to check it out..

It's something different and it looks interesting.

You get a good look at Jeremy's rather HAWT (compared to Jeremy) GF in this clip.

Binge washed it yesterday.... Laughed out loud a bunch and learned a bit also. Just about everything Jeremy was doing, I do on a small scale from the honey bees to the trout ponds. I’m no “farmer” but we do have a small farm in South Georgia where I grow sugarcane and make pure cane syrup that we sell...a true small family business. https://www.parrishcanesyrup.com/
We also plant small food plots for the deer and quail.
Farming is a tough way to make a living but it is very enjoyable if you are wired for that type of work...I personally like it a lot.

I have seen a coupe of episodes and enjoying it so far.

Nice to see that really silly government rules are not just from the US Government.

watched the first episode last night, it's alright!

Looks like you are sold out you big tease:D

PM when I can order some.

Thanks!

I've been to Ben's fiefdom. Quite the setup. He should be proud.

I think it’s more an issue with the narrow old gates and the size of the fields. If you watch he has 1000 acres but the biggest fields are maybe 100-200 acres. Lots of navigating narrow lanes and tight gates built 300 years ago. You just couldn’t get one of the massive JDs we use here in the Americas into his fields or barns.

He can't even get the Lambo tractor into his barn. I sure would not want to drive a F350 around in England either.

He needs something like this:

A big drill unfolds. They still have to go up and down gravel roads here in NA.

good show. gives me anxiety. so much to worry about. beats my lifestyle by a mile though

And the farm down the road is Metcalfe's. Old guys that made their money doing car stuff want to lose it all by becoming gentleman farmers? Harry has his cars in an out building, so where does Clarkson keep his?

i think Harry is probably a more capable, skilled farmer, perhaps with more money but i’ll give jeremy credit for trying…..though this is a tv show which is the motivation for biting off more than he can chew i suspect

IIRC, Harry has a farming degree.

Enjoying it so far. Nice to have TV money to subsidize the learning experiences.

Farming is all about getting the harvest in, come Hell, high water, pests, not to mention bad crop prices. It's constant crisis management in a way. The crops don't wait for you. Weather doesn't wait for you. You get a lot of days when you eat excrement sandwich for that rare year when you get filet mignon.

I don't know if it's filming with COVID restrictions and losing the ability to have a make up person on set, but it seemed that Jeremy aged a lot in the one year of filming.

I cannot imagine one year having a brainstorm for a new show involving farming and halfway into it a pandemic hits, lockdowns and commodities prices plunging. Talk about having to do a "pivot" and change your whole game plan on the theme or just shytecan the whole project.

finished it. what a great show. i’ll miss it. doesn’t seem like there will be a season 2

I have to admit I liked it better than Richard Hammond's show with that guy from Myth Busters. This one I finished, that one, I think I stopped watching after episode 4.

I’ve watched a couple of episode and I really like it. It’s painful to watch him dragging that little field cultivator around with that big ass tractor and complaining about how long it’s going to take. With that Lamborghini he nds a cultivator at least twice that wide.
His cute and cheerful girlfriend seems an unlikely match for that pot-bellied, acerbic old man.
