0:00:13 > 0:00:17- Here I am, - in England's vast expanses!

0:00:17 > 0:00:20- I'm in the Pickworth area - in Rutland...

0:00:21 > 0:00:23- ..and this is Grange Farm...

0:00:23 > 0:00:26- ..the home of Delyth - and Will Gilman.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30- Delyth's roots - are in the Hiraethog area.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33- She grew up on Brynclochydd Farm.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36- Now, she lives in these expanses.

0:00:37 > 0:00:38- She has three sons.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42- The family - runs a large cereal farm.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44- We'll learn more as we go on.

0:00:55 > 0:01:01- Grange Farm lies half a mile from - the ancient village of Pickworth.

0:01:01 > 0:01:07- It is surrounded by thousands of - acres of wheat, oats and barley...

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- ..growing in huge fields.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12- It's the middle of August...

0:01:13 > 0:01:17- ..and the season for combine - harvesting is coming to an end.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21- This year, we have 3,000 acres.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24- There are 500 acres left to harvest.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26- Progress has been good.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28- The combines are huge.

0:01:29 > 0:01:34- They'd raise a few eyebrows - in Gwytherin or Llanilar!

0:01:34 > 0:01:38- You'd have a hard time - getting them there!

0:01:38 > 0:01:41- We've been using two combines, - this year.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- We've had good weather - for making silage.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48- Yes, we've had favourable weather.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51- We haven't had any rain - for over six weeks.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53- It's been dry.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Is it dry land, generally?

0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Yes, the land is dry, generally.

0:01:59 > 0:02:00- It's stony and dry.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03- One half of the farm is wetter...

0:02:04 > 0:02:07- ..though rain doesn't affect it - too badly.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10- Barley is your biggest crop.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Do you also grow oats and wheat?

0:02:13 > 0:02:16- We grow oats, wheat, barley, peas...

0:02:17 > 0:02:19- ..oilseed rape...

0:02:20 > 0:02:21- ..all kinds of crops.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- We've expanded our range - quite a lot, over the years.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29- This area - has good road links nearby.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- It makes it easy for you - to transport your produce.

0:02:33 > 0:02:38- That's right - in the background, - we can hear the hum from the A1.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42- The A1 can take you anywhere - within a few hours.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Most of our produce is sold - in advance on the futures market.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- It's used to make bread - and biscuits.

0:02:51 > 0:02:56- We have a contract with Jordans, - who make cereal bars.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- We have thousands of tonnes to sell.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03- Prices change on a daily basis...

0:03:03 > 0:03:08- ..depending on the value of the - pound, and other crops worldwide.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- I should think - it's a difficult situation.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Yes, though that's true - for all farmers.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- So much relies on the weather.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21- Weather conditions worldwide - affect our sales.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26- High production in another part - of the world causes oversupply.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31- On the other hand, we profit - if production is poor elsewhere.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33- Do you spray your crops?

0:03:34 > 0:03:35- Yes, to some degree.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Black-grass is a major issue.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40- That's our biggest problem...

0:03:41 > 0:03:45- ..and there are no chemicals - available on the market...

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- ..that can kill it, - apart from Roundup.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51- We've sprayed lots of patches.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53- Every year is different...

0:03:53 > 0:03:56- ..when it comes - to the use of chemicals.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01- It's nice to see some hedges, - and the trees are a vivid colour.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Do you cut your hedges every year, - like we do at home?

0:04:05 > 0:04:08- We don't cut them every year.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11- We're involved - in a conservation scheme...

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- ..similar to Tir Cynnal in Wales.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- It's called - Higher Level Stewardship.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22- Hedges are cut three times - within a five-year period.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24- The trees are a vivid colour.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27- There's a nice mix, isn't there?

0:04:27 > 0:04:28- There's a nice mix, isn't there?- - Yes.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34- A lot of these woodlands are Sites - of Special Scientific Interest...

0:04:34 > 0:04:38- ..and the government - is keen to preserve them.

0:04:44 > 0:04:49- There's a huge contrast between - Brynclochydd and these expanses.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51- Did you fit in happily?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Yes, I've settled in.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56- I've been here for 12 years.

0:04:56 > 0:05:01- You're not Delyth Brynclochydd - any longer...

0:05:02 > 0:05:04- ..now, you're Delyth the Grange!

0:05:04 > 0:05:06- I'm Delyth Gilman.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09- People here don't call you - by the name of your farm.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12- That's what everyone does in Wales.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- People here find that strange!

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- In this area, - people just use your name.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20- I apologise, Mrs Gilman!

0:05:23 > 0:05:30- Yes, Delyth's roots have been - transplanted to Grange Farm.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35- Hopefully, the future will be - secure - in the hands of her sons...

0:05:36 > 0:05:38- ..Tomos, Jack and Seth.

0:05:39 > 0:05:43- The hard work of combine harvesting - is drawing to an end.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47- Great loads of grain - are placed in storage.

0:05:47 > 0:05:51- Keeping the produce dry - is vitally important.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54- This year, we've been fortunate.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Sometimes, we have to dry the grain - using machinery.

0:05:58 > 0:06:04- Large fans, behind us, - blow air through these vents.

0:06:04 > 0:06:09- We keep quite a lot of grain - to use as seed.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- This is sent away to be tested.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14- Depending on the results...

0:06:15 > 0:06:19- ..the grain is given - certain treatments before sowing.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- We have to pay a levy for this.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24- My father-in-law looks after that.

0:06:26 > 0:06:31- This form of farming is completely - different from keeping animals.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Yes, completely different.

0:06:34 > 0:06:39- This type of farming involves - a lot more work than I'd imagined...

0:06:39 > 0:06:40- ..to be honest.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44- At home, - we harvest just a few fields.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46- It doesn't work like that, here.

0:06:46 > 0:06:51- No, it's not like Brynclochydd, - with its sheep and cattle.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55- The shed next to the grain store...

0:06:55 > 0:06:59- ..provides storage - for produce from the pea fields.

0:07:00 > 0:07:05- Are these peas used mainly for - feeding cattle and other animals?

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Most of the crop - goes to the Middle East.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- These are hard peas.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16- They're very dry.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20- People eat them as a snack - - in the form of wasabi peas.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22- These are used to make wasabi peas.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- I like their colour, - and they're dry as a cork.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30- You have eggs in many baskets.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34- That's right - - it's a case of necessity.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Because of the problem - with black-grass...

0:07:37 > 0:07:41- ..we've had to expand - our range of crops...

0:07:41 > 0:07:44- ..and there's more focus - on drilling in spring.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- Will Gilman, Delyth's husband, - is a local man.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50- They met at Harper Adams College.

0:07:51 > 0:07:56- Will has taken over the management - of Grange Farm from his father.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- As this year's harvesting - draws to an end...

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- ..Will is already preparing - for next season.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09- Will, this is a new drill.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11- Apparently, it does everything.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13- Apparently, it does everything.- - Yes, it's the first day out for us.

0:08:13 > 0:08:18- It's a new low disturbance drill, - causing minimum disturbance.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21- We're going from a tine drill - to a dish drill.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25- It's a direct drill, - straight into the stubble.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28- This cuts out ploughing - and cultivating.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- It does the sowing - and everything else.

0:08:32 > 0:08:34- Any cultivation we used to do...

0:08:34 > 0:08:39- ..in six or seven stages, depending - on how hard the ground was...

0:08:39 > 0:08:41- ..we now do in one pass.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44- You've got red soil, - very much like Breconshire.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Potentially, they think Rutland - was called Rutland...

0:08:49 > 0:08:52- ..because of the red land, red soil.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56- This is easy to work - but it's very drought-prone.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59- There's not much depth of soil.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03- In places in this field, - we're down to centimetres.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06- The maximum depth of soil - is probably a metre...

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- ..but generally, - we're talking about a foot.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- It's hard to plough.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- One thing I can't get away - from thinking...

0:09:15 > 0:09:20- ..your cost of machinery is - pretty high for this type of work.

0:09:20 > 0:09:25- Yes, that's where scale comes into - it, that's why we do contracting...

0:09:25 > 0:09:27- ..to offset these things.

0:09:28 > 0:09:33- We run on 0.25 units of horsepower - per acre, at the moment.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38- In the scheme of things, - that's actually quite low.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41- You're in that combine - from morning until dark.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44- I wouldn't swap it, though.

0:09:44 > 0:09:49- I've got three boys as well, - so the family farm should carry on.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52- Family farms - can be more efficient...

0:09:52 > 0:09:57- ..because you don't have to pay - office staff and things like that.

0:09:57 > 0:09:58- Delyth probably doesn't agree!

0:09:58 > 0:10:01- Delyth probably doesn't agree!- - Will, there's a lot of Welsh in you!

0:10:04 > 0:10:08- Yes, the staff of the future - are raring to go!

0:10:08 > 0:10:12- Delyth may not agree with Will - about paperwork.

0:10:12 > 0:10:17- On the other hand, Mam's assistance - is a great comfort at times.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22- A cuppa!

0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Here you are, Delyth - a cuppa.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31- I'm sure you'd welcome it.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33- I'm sure you'd welcome it.- - Gwenda, how are you?

0:10:33 > 0:10:34- Very well, thank you.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36- Does Mam help you with the accounts?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38- Does Mam help you with the accounts?- - It's handy to have her around.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40- She helps with the children.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43- It's a shame she lives so far away.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47- You have three daughters, - and they've all flown the nest.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52- Rhian is still with us, - but she's moving to Cardiff, soon.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56- We'll be like Sion and Sian - at home.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59- Nice to meet you.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01- I want to look at these accounts.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03- Do you do this every evening?

0:11:03 > 0:11:04- Do you do this every evening?- - Not every evening.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09- When I have the opportunity - - when the children are in bed...

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- ..or when they're out helping Dad.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15- You operate several different - farming systems.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17- You do contract farming.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20- Is there any share farming?

0:11:20 > 0:11:23- No, we don't do share farming.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- We do contract work, we rent...

0:11:26 > 0:11:28- ..and we manage.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30- There's a lot going on.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34- It's a lot of work, - and you also have three children.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38- You can turn your hand to anything.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42- I'm sure you're busy during lambing.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44- Yes, and I enjoy lambing.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49- As a child, I used to help Dad - with lambing in Gwytherin.

0:11:53 > 0:11:54- It's strange.

0:11:55 > 0:11:57- Your children understand Welsh.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- You speak Welsh with them - all the time.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04- I speak Welsh with them - and they understand...

0:12:04 > 0:12:06- ..but they answer in English.

0:12:07 > 0:12:07- .

0:12:18 > 0:12:21- Delyth Gilman - of Grange Farm near Pickworth...

0:12:22 > 0:12:25- ..has been living in Rutland - for about 12 years.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27- She has settled in well.

0:12:27 > 0:12:33- One of the area's attractions is - this huge reservoir - Rutland Water.

0:12:35 > 0:12:40- Construction of the reservoir - was completed in '76.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44- Its main purpose...

0:12:44 > 0:12:49- ..is to provide water for homes - in Northampton and in Milton Keynes.

0:12:49 > 0:12:54- It's been designed - as a tourist destination too.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57- What attracts you to this place, - as a family?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01- You bring your sons here - for a day's outing.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03- It's a convenient location.

0:13:03 > 0:13:08- There's something here for everyone - - a large park, cycle paths...

0:13:08 > 0:13:12- ..ice cream, and a small beach - where people can swim.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15- You can spend the whole day here.

0:13:15 > 0:13:16- We visit often.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20- A village was drowned - to create the reservoir.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- It's similar to Tryweryn.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26- Really?

0:13:26 > 0:13:28- We can't see all of it.

0:13:29 > 0:13:30- It's very big.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32- Yes, it's very big.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- The drowned village - was called Hambleton.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38- The only thing - that remains is the church.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41- That's all that remains.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46- In the shadow of St Andrew's - - another local church...

0:13:46 > 0:13:50- ..there is - a very interesting memorial.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54- Delyth's father, Morus Jones, - and her mother, Gwenda...

0:13:54 > 0:13:56- ..are here on holiday.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59- They live in Brynclochydd - in Gwytherin.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04- We're in Sempringham, which used - to be the location of a priory.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08- Nothing remains - of the priory's walls.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- The battle at Cilmeri...

0:14:12 > 0:14:16- ..led to the conquest of Wales - by Edward I.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- Llywelyn Ein Llyw Olaf - - our last prince - was killed.

0:14:20 > 0:14:24- Llywelyn's daughter, Gwenllian, - was captured...

0:14:24 > 0:14:29- ..and brought to this place, where - she spent the rest of her life.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33- She was born in 1282 - and she died in 1337.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- This is where she lived - all her life.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38- Is it a well-known story?

0:14:39 > 0:14:41- The memorial is very simple.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- Gwenllian was born - in Abergwyngregyn...

0:14:45 > 0:14:49- ..or perhaps in Llanfairfechan - - somewhere in that area.

0:14:49 > 0:14:53- The stone for the memorial - was brought from Penmaenmawr...

0:14:54 > 0:14:55- ..as I understand.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58- That makes it even more interesting.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02- Local people - became interested in the story.

0:15:03 > 0:15:08- They realised its significance and - felt there should be a memorial...

0:15:08 > 0:15:09- ..and here it is.

0:15:13 > 0:15:18- Most of the farmland at the Grange - is laid out in huge fields.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22- But parts of the landscape - are more similar to Wales.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27- This is where the family manages - a flock of 850 Easy Care sheep...

0:15:27 > 0:15:29- ..belonging to a neighbour.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32- You don't manure this land, do you?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35- There's good grass, though.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- It's been over 20 years - since this land was manured.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Easy Care sheep - seem to do well here.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47- They can move - from one field to another...

0:15:48 > 0:15:50- ..and there are lots of fields.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52- Are they brought inside for lambing?

0:15:52 > 0:15:54- Are they brought inside for lambing?- - No, lambing takes place outside.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57- They're free to roam these fields.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00- We weaned the lambs last month.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Most lambs - go straight to the abattoir.

0:16:04 > 0:16:05- We keep...

0:16:06 > 0:16:08- We keep yearling ewes...

0:16:08 > 0:16:12- ..and we sell male lambs - as fatstock.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13- Do you feed them?

0:16:14 > 0:16:15- No, nothing.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19- There are buckets of mineral - in the field, but that's all.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- You don't have to buy - any concentrates...

0:16:23 > 0:16:25- ..which means more profit.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Exactly, that's why we do it.

0:16:28 > 0:16:32- With the Easy Care breed, there's - a minimal amount of work involved

0:16:33 > 0:16:38- The breed was developed - by an Anglesey man, Iolo Owen.

0:16:38 > 0:16:39- Yes.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40- Yes.- - That's interesting.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47- Back home at Grange Farm...

0:16:47 > 0:16:51- ..the children's Wiltshire Horn - sheep require treatment.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54- Delyth and Will are helping.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05- After gathering them in a pen...

0:17:05 > 0:17:09- ..Tomos, the trainee shepherd, - watches his father carefully.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14- These belong to the boys, do they?

0:17:14 > 0:17:16- These belong to the boys, do they?- - Yes.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17- They look after them.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21- Up close, they're very big sheep!

0:17:21 > 0:17:22- Yes, they are.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25- They have sharp horns, too.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Do they tend to give birth to twins?

0:17:29 > 0:17:31- This year...

0:17:33 > 0:17:35- There are 20 ewes.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Fifteen of them gave birth to twins.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Five gave birth to singletons.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- They're quite prolific, aren't they?

0:17:44 > 0:17:46- They're quite prolific, aren't they?- - They can look after themselves.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49- Lambing occurs outside.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50- You keep them pure-bred.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52- You keep them pure-bred.- - Yes, they're pure-bred.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55- We decided on this breed...

0:17:55 > 0:17:58- ..because we had - an area of grassland...

0:17:58 > 0:18:02- ..within a Site - of Special Scientific Interest.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06- We needed a rare breed - to graze this land.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09- So we bought a few of these.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12- They also give the children - something to do.

0:18:19 > 0:18:24- Grange Farm has thousands of acres - of fertile land...

0:18:24 > 0:18:28- ..but some of it - is kept uncultivated.

0:18:28 > 0:18:33- It provides a habitat for ducks, - pheasants and wild flowers.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43- You have two lakes for ducks - - wild ducks.

0:18:44 > 0:18:49- Last year, we brought in - 500 ducks for shooting.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- The remaining ducks have bred.

0:18:53 > 0:18:57- I'm not sure how many there are, - but they number about 200.

0:18:57 > 0:19:02- We give them a limited amount - of food in order to keep them here.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08- Is shooting - a popular autumn activity?

0:19:08 > 0:19:12- Yes, it is, and a great deal of - shooting takes place in the area.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18- We run a small shoot on the farm - for our syndicate.

0:19:18 > 0:19:19- There are 16 members.

0:19:20 > 0:19:24- They're supposed to help - with running the shoot...

0:19:24 > 0:19:25- ..but...

0:19:27 > 0:19:29- I know the feeling!

0:19:30 > 0:19:33- We get about 10 days' shooting...

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- ..between early October - and late January.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46- They were here earlier - - they've gone into hiding, now.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49- Yes - you frightened them away!

0:19:50 > 0:19:53- They can move quickly - through this rough grass.

0:19:54 > 0:19:55- What about foxes?

0:19:56 > 0:19:57- The land is very open.

0:19:57 > 0:20:02- The population of foxes - is kept strictly controlled.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- We don't really have any problems.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08- A hunt operates in this area.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10- Here they are, look!

0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Oh, here they are!

0:20:12 > 0:20:13- Let's get in front of them.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15- Let's get in front of them.- - Some of them, anyway.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18- These are older ducks.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28- In addition to being - a home for ducks...

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- ..this area of land - is rich in natural foods...

0:20:32 > 0:20:35- ..such as mixed seeds - for wild birds...

0:20:36 > 0:20:39- ..and plants that encourage insects.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42- This is an area - on the edge of a field...

0:20:42 > 0:20:45- ..that provides a habitat - for wildlife.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Yes, this is for wildlife.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51- As you can see, - there are lots of butterflies.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- We can hear grasshoppers and bees.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56- They're everywhere.

0:20:56 > 0:21:01- Conservation and farming - go hand in hand.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03- They go together well.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07- You have more facilities than most - because you have more land.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09- But it works well.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13- We don't want to lose our wildlife.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16- Those are last year's bales, - left behind.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19- They provide winter shelter - for wildlife.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22- What are you doing with this?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24- It looks very smart!

0:21:24 > 0:21:29- It contains food for pheasants - and partridges.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31- They're around here, somewhere.

0:21:31 > 0:21:34- You have partridges?

0:21:34 > 0:21:35- You have partridges?- - Yes.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39- You have lots of trees on your land.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- Do you keep any deer?

0:21:43 > 0:21:45- We have lots of deer.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47- There are deer all over the place.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Yes, a number of them.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56- There are two men - from Stoke-on-Trent...

0:21:56 > 0:21:59- ..who come to shoot them.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02- They're quite difficult to shoot.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04- Bees are getting everywhere!

0:22:05 > 0:22:06- Shall I hold the bucket?

0:22:07 > 0:22:09- Corn and barley for the birds.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12- Sorry?

0:22:12 > 0:22:13- You're giving them barley, are you?

0:22:13 > 0:22:14- You're giving them barley, are you?- - Yes.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16- Stuff that's too wet to go...

0:22:17 > 0:22:20- Stuff that's left over - after cleaning.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24- We have plenty of it.

0:22:26 > 0:22:27- Fair play to you.

0:22:28 > 0:22:32- You know exactly what goes on - in every part of the farm.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33- You can turn your hand to anything.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47- Farmers are farmers, - from cradle to grave.

0:22:47 > 0:22:51- Yes, it's in their blood, - from both sides of the family.
