My Dream Farm

One to look forward to, I missed the first episode last week but can’t wait to see this tomorrow night. Experienced horticulturist Monty Don assists six families as they try to realise their dream of quitting the rat race, by helping them return to the land. This week is about Karon Roberts and Simon Sanders who have quit the rat race to breed rare pigs in Suffolk. They have swapped the London suburbs for a windswept corner of Cornwall, but in their pursuit of a self-sufficient lifestyle they soon begin to haemorrhage money. The couple have grand plans for an enormous barn housing a farm shop, cafe and art gallery. But the whole scheme is threatened when some of the pigs fall ill. This is the 2nd week of a series of 6, all based around the same principles. I’d love to do something just like this, totally up my street. If you would like to tune in, it's on Thursdays, Channel 4, 8:00pm - 9:00pm
