When Hugh first did the two series on TV one in an old Land Rover and another in an old Canal Barge I thought that they were brilliant with him even catching carp close to a power station ,and then using the old truck drivers trick of using the heat from the engine of the Land Rover to cook it , i would love to see another series done in the old format as River Cottage HQ seems to have lost some of the shows original sparkle
Loved this show, got the box set, have visited all the areas, dreamed of doing such things, then, we all find out it was a big farce and that it was all about building a brand, oh the lies we where told
My friend took the leap and gave it a go and to be fair is doing pretty good. But, his wife has an extremely well paid job and he has a very healthy pension pot. I think a lot of people that take this leap and choose this lifestyle, are far from broke and do regular top up shops from M&S LOL.
I still eat pigeon,deer,rabbit,duck,pheasant etc...i am lucky to be able to hunt and fill my freezer for virtually nothing other than some choice cuts and a nice bottle or two for the landowner. I could not imagine living any other way.
so the guy who taught him how to fish went out and came back with the fish but despite the whole film crew did not capture it???? Also the Lord of the manor came out with a gun and could not even hit the closest bird, typically lords of the manor these days are a waste of space and sit back on their heritage and not what they can actually bring to the table.
When he said Moroccan I actually thought that old boy was gonna start vomiting like that little Britain lady haha
Funny that! 😁😁

I think it was called a Cook on the wild side,, didn't he sleep in an old boat on the ladies roof ?
I remember watching this when it first aired, good series 👍
why does the "Toemayto" guy remind me of Richard Dreyfuss off Jaws
Use to love this series. So English

It would be great to “downsize” The trouble is, you need to start with a whole load of money to buy some land.

Wow this was years ago he is still a boy! This must be very close after cooking the Afterbirth where he rose to fame! Well done Hugh
This was before that.

so planting a variety of the same thing protects you from bug/bacterial blooms - not volume (one for you, one for the slug).
8 weeks old I think not,

Could have sold those flower plants and gained a little cash
