Perhaps the £20 a day was the approximate price for an uplift…..

+1

Seems reasnoble.

No problem with that- it’s the “oh farming is so hard” stuff that makes him a ****. Oh it’s so hard, if it wasn’t for the massive advert I get on the BBC every week I wouldn’t be able to afford as many collector’s edition cows. This one’s gold plated! Gotta catch em all!

****!
and yet he was doing it BEFORE he was on telly. in fact one of the reasons he’s on telly was because of his connection with rare breeds. weird that, eh? still farming is probably harder than operating a tv remote control, something you appear to be incapable of doing.

Its getting really bad, its all so terribly Blue Peter for the countryside…

weather forecast is good tho 🙂

Agreed about Adam Henson, he is a complete and utter bell-end and quite frankly if I ever met him I’m kick him in the bollocks.

Good point, actually. Well, Blue Peter from the 80s. What’s Blue Peter like nowadays?

I’d like to give them all the Deliverance treatment…

Not quite sure what you mean here; you’d like to brutally anally rape the presenters of a popular TV programme? 😯 Or have a banjo duet with each of them?

Blimey. What terrible thing has he done to you personally then, to warrant such anger and violent retribution?

stole the manual for his tv remote control?

I thought that tiny MTB segment on CF was quite funny! A bit Slippy was it?? 😉

What, banging on about it on the telly? No, I don’t believe he was.

A mate ended up on a skiing holiday with Adam by chance. Said he was pretty sound. Go figure.

Nothing wrong with spending ££’S on a decent set of outdoor wear, warmth & dryness is worth the cost.

Julia is starting to look a bit injection moulded these days though.

What’s happened to the little blond girl?

What’s happened to the little blond girl?

Which one?

Nope, still not regretting selling my television.

What bugs me about the programme is the fact that Julia Bradbury wears a different set of clothes for almost every scene. Last night she was in a Mammut goretex cag which cost over £500 – yes more than £500 for a blooming cag!!!!!!!!!

Has it not occurred to you that the various segments might have been filmed days or weeks apart? They are frequently in different locations, after all.
Or is that too simplistic an answer for those looking for something else to whine about?

The little blond with the long hair and a northern accent?? Oh and the wellies??

On the point about Adam, well actually the whole programme really, we have 2 farms in the family up the in that Harrogate like, and it’s the only programme that the whole family watches. Ok mostly cos of Adam ( we have sheeps and cattles ) and the weather forecast.
MrsBouys Bro can often be heard tutting to himself when they rattle on about “niche” herds….
We’re Organic, took 7 years of hard graft and mahoooosive amounts of paperwork and red tape to go through, and we think its worth it.
It would be nice to hear some more “real life” stories on the programme instead of the polished exterior of farming in general.
Though to be fair, Matt did give the Borders sheep farmer an airing, not enough of one but an airing non the less.

Nope, still not regretting selling my television.

Because a few random strangers don’t like Country File ?

I used to really like Sunday morning Countryfile but don’t like it since it moved to the evening slot some time ago. I have met Adam albeit briefly when we took the children to the farm park (One if the best ones of that type we have been too.). He was pleasant and really helpful – didn’t have the air of the ‘big I am’ either…

It gave the impression that mountain bikes are useless or even dangerous when used in the slippy conditions that are commonplace in the British Wintertime. This hardly gives an attractive and positive impression of the sport!

Still can’t resist the opportunity to open a tread about a TV program though, eh? 😉

Ellie Harrison?
