AFTER years of playing a farmer on Emmerdale, one soap star is trying out for real.
BBC show Kelvin Fletcher’s Big Farm Adventure will show the actor’s new life in the country.
Where was Kelvin Fletcher’s Big Farm Adventure filmed?
The new six-part documentary is filmed on Kelvin’s farm which can be found in the Peak District.
The Strictly Come Dancing champion swapped urban life to start farming in the countryside in 2020.
He moved there with his wife and their two young children Marnie and Milo.
Their 120-acre farm has an 18th-Century cottage, outbuildings, 20 sheep, three pigs and three alpacas.
The family moved from their home in Oldham to the farm on the edge of the Peak District National Park.
What has Kelvin said about his farm?
In an interview with the Radio Times, Kelvin said it was a “big step”, but they were ready to “embrace something new”.
He added: “Often life is a case of always being on to the next thing, and I guess lockdown was a real pause when you couldn’t help but be present and reflect.
