-..without arguing.

-I'll be keeping an eye

-on the contestants.

-I might have to keep an eye

-on the other judges too.

-One of today's teams is Team Rhys

-from Llanfair Caereinion, Powys.

-On our farm,

-we keep 110 suckler cows...

-..and about 800 Lleyn sheep.

-This is Alun Thomas

-and Geraint Jones.

-We're just three friends, really.

-Alun milks on a farm

-near Llanfair.

-I farm at home in Llandinam.

-We're a strong team.

-We all have different skills.

-Geraint works a lot with tractors.

-I do a lot with sheep.

-Alun works a lot with dairy cows.

-If we pull together,

-we have a good chance.

-If we work as a team,

-we know what to do.

-My favourite task

-would be with a quad.

-I race quads, and so does Geraint.

-Something like that would be cool.

-We get on quite well, really...

-..until we race,

-then you forget about friends.

-I'd like to win.

-Might as well go all the way.

-We'll see how it goes.

-Welcome to the Barn.

-Team Rhys is keen

-and ready to compete.

-How are you today?

-Quite good.

-Rhys, Alun and Geraint.

-How are the nerves this morning?

-I was a bit nervous when I got up.

-I was a bit nervous when I got up.

-

-A little.

-Do you have any tactics?

-We haven't discussed it yet!

-You're just going for it!

-You're just going for it!

-

-Yes.

-Good luck.

-You haven't met your opponents yet.

-There's a reason for that.

-They weren't

-at the Royal Welsh Show.

-But they're familiar figures

-to Fferm Ffactor viewers.

-Give your opponents a welcome.

-They're former

-Fferm Ffactor contestants.

-Here they are!

-Here they are!

-

-Oh!

-How are you?

-How are you?

-

-Fine.

-Nice to see you.

-Have a seat.

-Welcome to the Barn.

-Welcome to the Barn.

-

-Thanks.

-I'm Rhodri Jones. I'm 37.

-I live in Llanuwchllyn.

-We keep Welsh Black pedigree cattle.

-I was in the first

-Fferm Ffactor series.

-It was a unique experience.

-I hope I'm a stronger

-contestant now.

-I'm definitely more determined to

-go home with a share of the pickup.

-I'm Heilin Thomas.

-I live near Llandysul.

-We have just over 200 sheep

-and 25 beef cattle.

-I was on Fferm Ffactor in 2011.

-and laughed a great deal.

-I learnt a lot too.

-A great deal stuck in my memory.

-I hope.

-I hope we gel as a team.

-We have a range of skills.

-I hope the other two will work

-as hard as me to win the pickup.

-You don't often get a second chance.

-This time, we're going to win.

-This time, we're going to win.

-

-Oh!

-Is it an advantage, having been

-in front of the camera before?

-No, I don't think so.

-It might be a disadvantage.

-We're silly enough to do it again!

-That's enough talking. Good luck!

-On to the competing.

-I'll remind you

-how everything will work.

-One member of each team has to take

-part in at least one challenge...

-..apart from the last one,

-which is a team task.

-Does everyone understand?

-I know you can't wait

-to find out what the first task is.

-Here it is.

-The first task is...

-..a Mechanical Task.

-You must complete a special course

-with a quad bike and trailer.

-The fastest time wins the task.

-Simple.

-Have a discussion to see who you

-think would do best in this task.

-What about the Knowledge Task?

-I'll do it.

-You look as if you've decided.

-You look as if you've decided.

-

-Yes.

-Who will do the task?

-Who will do the task?

-

-Geraint.

-He's quite good. He races quads.

-Do you?

-Yes.

-No jumps on this bike!

-Or doughnuts!

-Geraint represents the red team.

-What about your team?

-We think Rhys will do the task.

-He said he was built

-for riding motorbikes.

-Speedster.

-Are you happy to do the task?

-After hearing that he races bikes,

-I don't know. I'll try my best.

-Do you have a bike at home?

-Do you have a bike at home?

-

-Yes. That's why I have a belly.

-Good luck.

-Good luck.

-

-Thanks.

-We know what the first task is.

-Geraint represents Team Rhys

-and will go first.

-Good luck.

-Now, the task!

-The judges have designed

-a challenging course.

-It will test their driving

-skills against the clock.

-But they must take care.

-Time will be added

-if they hit a bale or fence.

-Right, Geraint!

-Good luck.

-Three, two, one.

-Off you go!

-Geraint from Team Rhys goes first.

-The other two watch in the Barn.

-Geraint is very comfortable

-as he races round the course.

-Don't hit the bales!

-Go on! Good.

-He's doing a good job so far.

-He's doing a good job so far.

-

-Yes.

-Go on!

-They're tight corners.

-No problem with the limbo pole.

-No problem with the limbo pole.

-

-Oh!

-Rhys and Alun smile, but the bike

-wheels came off the ground twice.

-That won't please the judges.

-Take care round the ring, Geraint!

-Next, reversing.

-Will Geraint go back

-as well as he goes forward?

-Don't do anything silly.

-Flipping heck!

-Amazing driving!

-No way!

-Whoa!

-Oh!

-Well done.

-Geraint, it's fair to say

-you went flat out!

-Do you think so?

-Did it go well?

-Yes, I enjoyed it.

-Did you go a bit too fast at times?

-The wheels went

-over the wooden circle.

-No, I was in control.

-You're back in one piece.

-Yes.

-Yes.

-

-Just.

-What did the judges think?

-Well, well, well,

-what a start to the series.

-The bar has been set very high.

-Richard was very happy

-with the time.

-But Team Rhys will get time

-penalties for careless driving.

-Three, two, one, go!

-Rhys is next,

-from the Former Contestants Team.

-Go on!

-Oh!

-Was there a touch there?

-He hit the bale.

-He hit the bale.

-

-Did he?

-Rhys drives a little more slowly.

-He's going quite tidily.

-But Caryl notices

-that he hits one of the bales.

-He should go faster.

-Faster?

-Faster?

-

-Yes.

-Rhys's time is 20 seconds slower

-than Geraint at this point.

-Next, reversing

-to the finishing line.

-This is the test.

-He gets another time penalty

-for hitting the fence.

-Rhys has problems with the trailer.

-Come on, Rhys. Keep it together.

-Keep going, Rhys.

-Rhys was about

-to cross the line...

-..but decided to straighten

-the bike, to avoid the fence.

-Come on!

-We couldn't have asked

-him to do any better.

-No.

-How did it go?

-Alright. I scraped a bale or two,

-but didn't move them.

-You brushed past.

-Yes.

-Do you think you went

-fast enough to beat Geraint?

-Who knows? He races bikes.

-He's a petrolhead.

-Good luck.

-Thanks.

-You can relax now.

-Thanks!

-Rhys did well, going a bit slower.

-At the end, he had to drive forward

-before passing the line.

-Will that be the difference between

-winning and losing? We'll see.

-The teams have completed one task,

-three remain. Join us again shortly.

-We're back in the Barn.

-It's time for the second task.

-It's a Knowledge Task.

-The contestants will see

-various agricultural products...

-..that have to be

-weighed and measured.

-You must answer questions

-about various measurements...

-..as well as doing

-three estimate challenges.

-Are you with me?

-Discuss who you want to take part.

-Geraint and Rhys are out of it.

-In the task, I'll ask the

-contestants to deal with numbers.

-It's an important part

-of their daily business.

-They will measure liquids,

-estimate distance...

-..and estimate the weight

-of foodstuff in sacks.

-Team Rhys, how did you

-choose the contestant?

-Go for the most clever.

-Go for the most clever.

-

-Who is that?

-Alun is the brains!

-We'll see how it goes!

-You've just graduated.

-You've just graduated.

-

-That doesn't say much!

-Rhodri is the captain

-of the Former Contestants Team.

-Who will do this task?

-By default, me.

-Why so?

-Rhys couldn't,

-Heilin didn't want to.

-Team Rhys, you go first.

-Good luck.

-Good luck.

-

-Thanks.

-Go on, Alun!

-Good luck.

-Good luck.

-

-Thanks.

-Welcome, Alun.

-The first question is, how many

-millilitres are there in a pint?

-I'm not sure.

-I'm not sure.

-

-Me neither.

-Difficult.

-About 500 ml.

-Is that your answer?

-Is that your answer?

-

-Yes.

-He has to measure ten litres of milk

-into this jar, using the jugs.

-What process are you using?

-I reckon that is

-one and a half or two litres.

-I'll stick about five in.

-Whatever you think.

-That's way over ten litres!

-A bit more.

-About that, surely?

-Right. Thanks.

-Alun estimated

-almost exactly ten litres.

-Now, the next part of the task.

-A field measures two hectares.

-How many acres is that?

-Ah!

-He knows this.

-One acre is

-two point four seven hectares.

-Two acres is about five.

-Is that your answer?

-Is that your answer?

-

-Just under five. I'll say five.

-I think. I probably got that wrong.

-Your second challenge.

-What is the distance

-between this post and the tractor?

-Ah!

-I'd measure the bay.

-It isn't quite 100 metres, is it?

-Is it?

-I'll go for 100 metres.

-It looks like

-a 100 metre sprint race.

-Does it?

-Maybe.

-Thanks. We go on

-to the last question.

-How many 25 kilo sacks

-are there in three tons?

-A hundred and twenty.

-Next, weigh nine kilos of lambing

-feed and put it in the sack.

-He's looking for a measure!

-Do you have an idea

-how much it weighs?

-I hope so. One litre is a kilo.

-This is two litres.

-If I put four and a half in,

-it should be close.

-That's liquid, not meal.

-Do you think that's nine kilos?

-Do you think that's nine kilos?

-

-I live in hope.

-I'd put two more.

-It's too light.

-Seven kilos.

-Not far off.

-Next, put four kilos

-of poultry feed in the sack.

-That's light.

-I'm trying to think how much a bag

-of sugar weighs. Four bags of sugar.

-About that.

-Maybe two kilos.

-Five kilos.

-Close, but not quite right.

-Oh!

-Your final challenge is to put five

-kilos of barley in the bag, please.

-Is that heavier or lighter?

-It's lighter.

-I should take that bag.

-It's five kilos.

-I'd put more in.

-I'd put more in.

-

-One more.

-Oh, no.

-He's putting it back in!

-Five kilos!

-Five kilos!

-

-Yes!

-You got that right.

-You got that right.

-

-Spot on!

-The challenge is over. Thanks, Alun.

-The challenge is over. Thanks, Alun.

-

-Thanks.

-Alun, you look relieved

-after the task.

-Yes.

-I don't think I was too bad.

-We'll see what the results are.

-Rhodri goes next.

-How many millilitres

-are there in a pint?

-Nought point eight eight of a litre.

-Close.

-Close.

-

-Yes.

-Rhodri has to put

-ten litres of milk in the jar.

-The size might be on it.

-The jug looks about two litres.

-About three litres.

-That's more than three.

-Are you still happy

-with how much it holds?

-Yes.

-He reckons that's six litres.

-He needs more.

-That's too much.

-My god.

-I'll use this.

-For a bit more?

-For a bit more?

-

-Nine to ten.

-Stop!

-It might be too much.

-I'll settle for that.

-Happy?

-Happy?

-

-Yes.

-Ten litres.

-Ten litres.

-

-He might be right.

-Rhodri's instinct was right.

-He is over the mark.

-How many acres are there

-in a two hectare field?

-Four point nine four.

-Close enough.

-Rhodri has to estimate

-the distance to the tractor.

-Do you have a process?

-I'll measure the shed bays.

-Good thinking.

-He estimates the distance

-by looking at the sheds' width.

-Eleven bays, 150 to 165 foot.

-He's pacing metres.

-Fifty four metres.

-Right. Now, the final part.

-Thanks.

-How many 25 kilo sacks

-are there in three tons?

-A hundred and twenty.

-A hundred and twenty.

-

-One twenty, yes.

-Next, he has to estimate

-nine kilos of poultry pellets.

-He must be getting it free!

-I'll try that.

-I'll try that.

-

-Nine kilos.

-That's six kilos.

-Pity!

-Oh!

-Now, he has to estimate

-four kilos of poultry feed.

-His tactic is to compare weights.

-What are you thinking?

-What are you thinking?

-

-I must do better this time!

-That's lighter

-than pellets, I'd say.

-Tough.

-Five kilos.

-A bit harsh. It's not quite five.

-A bit harsh. It's not quite five.

-

-Five kilos. I'm the judge.

-I decide!

-Oh!

-Finally, barley.

-Put five kilos in that bag.

-Right.

-Maybe one arm is stronger.

-A bit too much.

-Try it.

-You're doing a lot of weighing.

-You're doing a lot of weighing.

-

-Yes.

-I don't want to leave it to chance.

-Five kilos. Well done.

-Five kilos. Well done.

-

-Thanks.

-Well done.

-My first weighing was disappointing.

-I hope I learnt and got better

-as the task went on.

-You and Wyn had

-a slight disagreement.

-Maybe I was a bit biased

-about my own estimate.

-I was sure of my answer.

-I'm the judge, so I have the last

-word, I'm afraid, for Rhodri.

-We'll be back with dairy

-cattle after the break.

-Will there be arguments

-as they try to work together?

-the other will answer questions.

-Heilin, who is joining you?

-

-Rhys.

-At last! A decision has been made.

-Rhys starts

-by cleaning the teats...

-..under Wyn and Richard's

-

-Me. I only answered eight.

-It wasn't a good performance.

-I'm disappointed Alun

-only answered eight correctly.

-He's a dairy farmer

-who recently left college.

-These facts should be

-on the tip of his tongue.

-Rhys did well

-on the practical side.

-It's Heilin and Rhys now,

-from the Former Contestants Team.

-This is the task

-we're least likely to win.

-I'm pleased with

-the Former Contestants Team.

-Heilin answered the questions.

-He was very nervous.

-He wasn't familiar

-with the milk industry.

-I was pleasantly surprised!

-We're back in the Barn.

-The competing is almost over.

-But there is one final task.

-It'll put your teamwork

-under the microscope.

-Rhys, how do you work as a team?

-We've never really worked together.

-It'll be touch and go.

-You haven't worked as a team.

-Who will lead in the final task?

-We'll wait to hear

-what the task is...

-..then work out

-our individual strengths.

-I need a translator

-to understand Heilin!

-Let's wait and see.

-Good luck to both teams.

-Let's go over to the judges

-to discover what the task is.

-I've joined the teams

-for the final task.

-It's a challenging task.

-They have to build a pen...

-..that's 12 square feet

-to hold sheep.

-They have their work cut out.

-Good luck.

-The teams are against the clock.

-The pen must hold six sheep.

-They're on their way.

-The first step is digging

-a hole for the straining poles.

-They're under pressure.

-Don't bother me now!

-Don't bother me now!

-

-That's what I call a hole.

-You're used to fencing.

-You've competed with the YFC.

-No, never.

-No, never.

-

-Liar!

-How's it going, Rhys?

-How's it going, Rhys?

-

-OK, I think.

-Are the holes giving you problems?

-I'm used to finding a hole!

-Team Rhys's spade

-is hitting a lot of stones.

-How's it going?

-How's it going?

-

-Not bad.

-It's full of stones.

-This is the task. Get on with it.

-The blue team positions

-their first pole.

-But have they dug deep enough?

-It's a bit high.

-We'll be OK when one end is in.

-Heilin and Rhodri decide to

-stop digging and use muscle power.

-Ten to start.

-Ten to start.

-

-You count.

-Ten!

-Ten!

-

-That was only nine.

-The pole is in.

-The pole is in.

-

-The soil is hellish dry.

-Another ten.

-What about the blue team?

-The pole is in.

-They've dug well.

-They should dig more.

-They're damaging

-the top of the pole...

-..and it isn't going anywhere.

-What about the red team?

-They've started to dig...

-..but the hole is too big.

-This hole is tighter

-to the pole than the other.

-It'll mean more work

-to fill the hole. We'll see.

-But the red team is catching up.

-But the red team is catching up.

-

-There's a long way to go.

-Yes, a lot of time to go

-and more sweating!

-After the break...

-..find out who wins the final task.

-Who will be the first team

-to reach the semi-final?

-There's only one task left...

-..before we discover who won

-this round of battle of the farmers.

-The final task is building

-a sheep pen, against the clock...

-..under

-the judges' watchful eyes.

-It's as if it grew there.

-The blue team is ahead.

-As my father would say, never ask

-how long it took to build a fence...

-..but who built it.

-So long as it's a good fence,

-the red team could take it.

-The red team want to dig deeper.

-The red team want to dig deeper.

-

-It should go that way.

-We need to do it there.

-Perhaps Team Rhys

-should have used this tool!

-ALUN BURPS

-ALUN BURPS

-

-Better in than out.

-I think the blue team

-could have done with a translator.

-Shall we fix

-the hinges to hang the gate?

-What on earth are you talking about?

-The hinges?

-The hinges?

-

-Yes!

-Up a little.

-Up, up.

-The blues face their first problem.

-The blues face their first problem.

-

-I could be on that. That says a lot!

-They've chosen an uneven spot.

-The gate won't open properly.

-It's useless.

-The sheep would escape.

-The red team continue to dig.

-We're still going.

-We're not far off now.

-Look at all those stones!

-It's like a quarry.

-We need a mini-digger!

-Stop complaining, Alun!

-The pulling pole

-is finally in place.

-BLEEP

-Rhys doesn't look happy.

-It's too high.

-They go back to digging.

-I've been observing the two teams.

-Team Rhys keeps looking over...

-..to see how the others are doing.

-I think they're worried.

-The former contestants still need to

-make sure the gate opens properly.

-How does that open now?

-Does it look OK?

-Bang it in, then.

-You have half an hour

-to finish the pens.

-The sheep are coming.

-I wouldn't want to be

-on the receiving end of that.

-What have you done, Rhys?

-You're bleeding like a stuck pig!

-The blue team

-has secured the latching post.

-Happy?

-Happy?

-

-Yes.

-It's a different story

-for the red team.

-We've got a slight problem.

-The poles are too close together.

-The gate isn't shutting properly.

-My heart is bleeding for them.

-They've made a fundamental error.

-We asked for a pen to hold sheep.

-The sheep are coming.

-They have to get a move on.

-The sheep are coming.

-The blue team start

-to put up the fence.

-Good work, boys.

-Good work, boys.

-

-Happy?

-Let's have you!

-Alun has different ideas.

-Alun has different ideas.

-

-Where is he going?

-LAUGHTER

-The sheep are ready.

-But there's no pen for them yet.

-You have five minutes

-to finish the pen.

-Your time is up.

-Put your tools down.

-You're out of time. Thank you.

-How did it go?

-I don't think anything will escape.

-I'm happy with it.

-Did you enjoy the task?

-It was alright.

-I preferred it to the other tasks.

-It was something

-I was familiar with.

-Team Rhys, you look disappointed.

-Yes.

-Yes.

-

-It's some sort of pen.

-It will hold sheep.

-That's what it's supposed to do.

-I think we've done enough

-in the other tasks.

-You've done enough.

-You've done enough.

-

-I hope so.

-How do the judges rate the pens?

-The gate hangs and closes.

-The poles are the same height.

-It's excellent work,

-in the time they had.

-It's a neat pen.

-I'd be happy to have this at home.

-I agree.

-What about Team Rhys's pen?

-The latching posts and location

-are better than the other team.

-They looked round,

-and found a level spot.

-But the gate doesn't close.

-It's a shame about that.

-It is. It isn't ideal.

-But they completed the task.

-Functional.

-Every week,

-the judges compare the teams...

-..before deciding

-which team goes through.

-In the battle of the farmers...

-..we're looking for

-a farmer with practical skills...

-..and the knowledge to back it up.

-We're looking for a package.

-We're looking for a package.

-

-We want a team of all-rounders.

-Let's start with the biking.

-Geraint was fast.

-Team Rhys won by a mile.

-They were head and shoulders

-above the others.

-We had the Measuring Task next.

-Alun measured the milk. He was

-incredibly close, on the line.

-It was a question

-of youth versus experience.

-In the measuring, and

-gauging how far the tractor was...

-..the blue team

-estimated the distance...

-..by looking at the shed's width.

-Experience helped

-with the weighing.

-He weighed and compared both sacks.

-It was close.

-Next was the Milking Task.

-The red team went first.

-Rhys was very comfortable.

-I'd quite happily

-let Rhys milk in my absence.

-Rhys, the former contestant...

-..was comfortable, but not as good.

-To be fair, none of the former

-contestants are dairy farmers.

-I thought they gave it a good shot.

-The next part

-was answering questions.

-Both teams were close.

-There weren't many correct answers.

-There weren't many correct answers.

-

-That surprised me...

-..especially as

-Alun keeps dairy cattle.

-I thought he'd get more right

-than Heilin.

-The final task was building

-a pen. It was quite a task.

-This was all about teamwork.

-One team stood out.

-I think we've reached a decision.

-I'll have to let Ifan know.

-MESSAGE

-That's it. The judges have decided.

-Before I reveal the decision...

-..how did Team Rhys

-enjoy the experience?

-It's been a good experience.

-It's been a good experience.

-

-I'm glad you enjoyed it.

-Former contestants, was it better

-or worse the second time round?

-It was harder to start.

-We're not used to working together.

-We enjoyed it.

-I can reveal that the team

-that's going through...

-..to the semi-final round...

-..of Fferm Ffactor,

-battle of the farmers...

-..is...

-..Team Rhodri.

-Congratulations

-to the former contestants.

-Unlucky, lads.

-CHEERS

-I'm relieved.

-That was a difficult

-task against a good team.

-We're pleased

-to get over that hurdle.

-I didn't want to take

-the team lightly.

-They're a young, strong team.

-They will be good farmers.

-We lost to a good team.

-I'd like to think we gave them

-a run for their money.

-It's been a good experience.

-I've learnt a couple of things.

-It's been fun.

-Winning is everything.

-There's an Isuzu up for grabs.

-We all want to win it.

-It would be an honour

-to be the first winners...

-..of battle of the farmers.

-..of battle of the farmers.

-

-Well said!

-The Former Contestants' Team

-are through to the semi-final.

-Join us next week for more battles

-on Fferm Ffactor.

-From all of us here, goodbye.

-Go on!

-I felt quite stupid after that.

-No!

-What are you doing?
