motherhen Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Yes! - got young man stripped to the waist building the hen run The bit about how much space 6 battery hens lived in was most convincing Lets just hope the hens survive the terrier and lurcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Phwoar.... it was worth watching..... although I didn't get most of the stuff about connecting the gear to the water wheel and fixing up the solar panel in the greenhouse. Son most earnestly infomed me that connecting the solar panel bit was easy..... he's now working on a plan that he promises he'll consult his dad and science teacher about...... if it works it might get him more interested in science....... and solar power in the greenhouse for me Can't see it somehow..... big words, little action, methinks.... but fingers crossed hey Quite liked the chickens , even if they were pretty bare chested too, poor things , but looked like they had some spirit and built up confidence pretty quick..... and the surfing young men were well worth an ogle too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I've never heard of Forgotten Farm, is it good one? Sadly we don't have Sky, just a very basic cable package..... and we only opted for that because it gives us better reception than terrestrial. We end up watching so little TV that we were too mean to pay out for expensive Sky and then not watch it..... but I quite clearly am missing some good programmes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 Well, we've only seen one so far and I dont think it is going be anything like "its not easy being green"!! But its quite amusing We only have the full package because of the cricket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 We only have the full package because of the Tour de France (and Carl had it for films but he never has time to watch any ) We've missed Forgotten Farm completely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I wasn't very impressed with Forgotten Farm last night, very plain and nothing really exciting! However I watched It's not easy being green for the first time! I really liked it, it was very interesting and that blokes moustache was quite amusing. I can't wait untill next tuesday!

Linda Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 and that blokes moustache was quite amusing. I can't wait untill next tuesday! Urgh, that moustache! It's horrible - looks like he has a dead rat dangling from his nose!!!! I really don't get facial hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 He He Ha Ha! I think it looked funny, you couldn't even see his mouth! My brother watched it and didn't like his accent! OOOps! Sorry to anyone with an accent like that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 As I don't have the luxury of a TV I haven't had the experience of his moustache (thank goodness by the sounds of it) or his accent. Martin, describe the accent to me, I'm intrigued! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I dunno, I didn't really pick up on it, my brother did!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
