Clarkson’s farm

Packham's not a Countryfile presenter & they've had a weekly update on a farm for years now, Adam's Farm or some such thing.

Neither is Rowlatt but a bit of hyperbole to add emphasis to this woeful magazine programme doesn't go amiss. Adam Henson is a decent bloke and deserves his own show, but it's not Countryfile, he's better than that. Rani was moved to better things a while ago cos square pegs in round holes doesn't work. John Craven is there because he's 110 and it gets him out the house.
The floor is now yours. ;)

I'm bailing out mate, I just got wrong for spoiling the thread...

Aye my second sentence wasn't about the prices, more that it didn't really jump out at me as a menu I'd specifically go out of my way for. The prices themselves weren't bad considering how much the mark up a venue with a "name" connection can be, and as you say it's not reheated fare either.

I think reading between the lines his idea for cheap affordable food will be blown out of the water when he realises the true costs involved. I think that will be shown in the latter episodes.

Not keen on Henson either, known as quite a pompus arse in farming circles.

I know, I used to wind my farmer mate up by mentioning "Adam" & his expensive kit, sounds really knowledgable, knows his stuff that bloke type conversation...
 
He seemingly hasn’t learned anything in all these years. Getting a bit repetitive now. Cocks something up, buy a big piece of equipment, fixes the issue

It's like the vast majority of programmes that have multiple series. A new/novel idea is great to watch, then producers try to repeat the winning formula by doing more and more daft things. Enjoyed the show for the most part but it's had it's run now.

That's why he's bought the pub. Expanding the world.

What does this Kaleb stage show actually entail? He's obviously a larger than life character but by the clips of the show it seems like hell on earth

Not my kind of thing but credit for him having the confidence to do a nationwide stage tour with no public speaking experience. Plus a book. He will have done very well out of it all.
