Country Strife: Abz on the Farm - Season 1

Back in the 90s, Abz Love was a rapper in successful boyband 5ive. Now he and his girlfriend singer-songwriter Vicky Fallon want to start a new self-sufficient life in the country. Armed with advice from the green residents at Lammas - a Welsh eco village - they start hunting for smallholdings and fall in love with a remote farm that needs renovating. Undaunted by the scale and cost of the work, they take their first steps by purchasing some livestock at auction.

City couple Abz Love and his girlfriend Vicky Fallon have their dream of a new life in the country dashed when their mortgage falls through. A smallholding that comes up for auction keeps their plans for living a self-sufficient green life alive. Leaving the music business and city life behind them, they move into their new property in a remote Welsh valley, only to discover that the land is beset with problems.

City couple Abz Love and his girlfriend Vicky Fallon are intent on living a self-sufficient life, but with barely any money and even less know-how, their first winter tests them to their limits. By selling everything they own, they are able to start work on draining the land and restoring the polytunnel and garden plot. Their new neighbours in the valley all rally round - supplying know-how, chickens and much-needed help as the first signs of spring appear.
