"Our Yorkshire Farm" Winter

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,200 Hill Shepherds, Amanda and Clive Owen live on one of the most remote farms in the country, 2 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,680 where they're raising nine children. 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,720 You know, you have one, and then it's two, it's like double trouble, three, it's just 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:17,320 a bit more pressure, four, yeah, it's a bit extra, five, it doesn't matter any more. 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,500 We're following them across four seasons, over a year of the most extraordinary and 6 00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:24,120 extreme weather that country's ever faced. 7 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,780 Oh, it can hardly breathe. 8 00:00:26,780 --> 00:00:28,920 From battling the beast from the east... 9 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:33,580 Reuben, you take these little ones back down and get them thawed out. 10 00:00:33,580 --> 00:00:36,600 ... to enduring the most severe summer on record. 11 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:41,100 It's been so hot, it's burnt all the grass away, people knackered. 12 00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:45,860 And discovering how this unique family copes with the challenges of their remarkable life 13 00:00:45,860 --> 00:00:46,860 by working together. 14 00:00:46,860 --> 00:00:47,860 Not happy. 15 00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:51,400 No, it's not happy. 16 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,760 Raven helps look after the little ones. 17 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,300 Reuben, he's always tinkering with something. 18 00:00:56,300 --> 00:00:58,060 Niles really loves farming. 19 00:00:58,060 --> 00:01:00,420 Edith, she's really good with the sheep. 20 00:01:00,420 --> 00:01:02,820 Then there's Violet, just such a tomboy. 21 00:01:02,820 --> 00:01:04,940 Sydney, he's cute. 22 00:01:04,940 --> 00:01:09,420 Then we've got Annis, Clemmie and Nancy. 23 00:01:09,420 --> 00:01:16,260 Oh, it can hardly breathe. 24 00:01:16,260 --> 00:01:21,360 Oh, it's so cold. 25 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,740 This week, the family takes on the challenges of winter. 26 00:01:24,740 --> 00:01:29,020 It's snowing and it's just a bit flippin' Baltic up here. 27 00:01:29,020 --> 00:01:31,900 Fourteen-year-old Reuben saves the day when the weather sets in. 28 00:01:31,900 --> 00:01:37,740 Reuben, you take these little ones back down and get them thawed out. 29 00:01:37,740 --> 00:01:41,420 Sydney, flathead screwdriver, please. 30 00:01:41,420 --> 00:01:45,020 Six-year-old Sydney helps keep the farm's essential machinery running. 31 00:01:45,020 --> 00:01:48,740 When did you start helping me in a workshop? 32 00:01:48,740 --> 00:01:51,620 Probably... four. 33 00:01:51,620 --> 00:01:53,940 The family celebrates the festive season. 34 00:01:54,180 --> 00:01:56,180 Well, Merry Christmas, my darling. 35 00:01:56,180 --> 00:01:59,180 Here's to many more of them. 36 00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:03,660 And are hit by one of the worst storms in a generation. 37 00:02:03,660 --> 00:02:08,460 The danger is, if they shelter on the wrong side of the wall, they'll get buried. 38 00:02:12,820 --> 00:02:17,860 Raven Seat Farm sits in the north of the Yorkshire Dales. 39 00:02:17,860 --> 00:02:23,420 At 1,800 feet above sea level, the family's exposed home is surrounded by wild, 40 00:02:23,420 --> 00:02:25,420 steep and rugged moorlands. 41 00:02:29,980 --> 00:02:34,940 It's early December, and as it's the weekend, with the sheep spread over hundreds of acres, 42 00:02:34,940 --> 00:02:36,940 the whole family helps tend the flock. 43 00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:44,780 Though it's just the start of the season, the farm has already been hit by snow 44 00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:46,860 and temperatures as low as minus 10. 45 00:02:49,140 --> 00:02:51,740 We have to be careful with sheep out here in winter. 46 00:02:51,740 --> 00:02:55,900 As you can see, it's a big area and it catches the wind. 47 00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:59,540 So wind and snow together, it can be dangerous place out here. 48 00:02:59,540 --> 00:03:05,180 You can lose sheep buried under snow and lose them, and they die. 49 00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:13,420 Come on, lasses. 50 00:03:13,420 --> 00:03:15,220 Come on, a bag to eat. 51 00:03:15,220 --> 00:03:18,540 Clive and Amanda also have chickens, cows and horses 52 00:03:18,540 --> 00:03:21,540 that all rely on their care in the harsh winter weather. 53 00:03:21,540 --> 00:03:22,740 What a day. 54 00:03:22,740 --> 00:03:23,740 Horrible. 55 00:03:26,180 --> 00:03:30,340 It's tough, kind of like extreme farming, farming at the sharp end. 56 00:03:30,340 --> 00:03:36,420 That's why we have sort of Swaledale sheep, native bred and native bred horses, 57 00:03:36,420 --> 00:03:37,420 because they can stand it. 58 00:03:38,940 --> 00:03:45,100 Me and Amanda have a lot of work, you know, as much as anybody can cope with. 59 00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:46,900 Right, come on, we're getting wet. 60 00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:49,460 The sooner we look to that fire, the better. 61 00:03:52,540 --> 00:03:56,820 Incredibly, Amanda and Clive both decided to pursue this tough way of life 62 00:03:56,820 --> 00:04:00,660 from an early age, despite neither one coming from farming families. 63 00:04:02,660 --> 00:04:04,500 Amanda grew up in Huddersfield 64 00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:08,540 and as a teenager tried to break into the world of modelling. 65 00:04:08,540 --> 00:04:11,860 When you think you're going to be a model, you think you're going to be like vogue, 66 00:04:11,860 --> 00:04:16,020 cosmopolitan, but actually then you end up doing like knitting catalogues, 67 00:04:16,020 --> 00:04:18,580 things like that, so it was like cardigans, floral. 68 00:04:18,580 --> 00:04:20,700 Princess Diana, 1980, that kind of look. 69 00:04:20,820 --> 00:04:21,820 No, thank you. 70 00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:28,340 I looked at a book all those years ago in a library that was called Hill Shepherd 71 00:04:28,340 --> 00:04:32,060 and saw pictures of people doing what I'm doing now. 72 00:04:32,060 --> 00:04:37,420 On the top of a mountain, looking out across with their sheepdog and their sheep. 73 00:04:37,420 --> 00:04:40,700 It was the pictures, it was the landscape, it was the people, 74 00:04:40,700 --> 00:04:44,780 it was everything in that book just appealed to me, it was just... 75 00:04:44,780 --> 00:04:48,780 I mean, it wasn't kind of glossing over the hard side of it. 76 00:04:48,820 --> 00:04:51,260 It was very real and very gritty and atmospheric, 77 00:04:51,260 --> 00:04:55,020 but it was just the thought of working in the outdoors 78 00:04:55,020 --> 00:04:57,620 and actually doing something, having a physical job, 79 00:04:57,620 --> 00:04:59,940 whereby you were out there feeling the elements, 80 00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:03,860 getting windburn, sunburn, rain done, all the rest of it. 81 00:05:03,860 --> 00:05:05,860 Sounded like a good idea back then. 82 00:05:10,260 --> 00:05:15,340 Like Amanda, 64-year-old Clive dreamed of becoming a shepherd early on in life. 83 00:05:16,340 --> 00:05:18,740 It's all I've ever wanted to do, really, 84 00:05:18,740 --> 00:05:22,740 because, you know, I was hooked on sheep from being a little lad. 85 00:05:24,180 --> 00:05:27,660 My father wasn't a farmer, but there was farms all around me 86 00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:29,500 and I spent lots of time at them, 87 00:05:29,500 --> 00:05:32,700 and I caught the bug when I was probably eight or something like that, 88 00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:37,340 and there was never any doubt that I wasn't going to be a farmer, 89 00:05:37,340 --> 00:05:42,860 and a sheep farmer, and a hill sheep farmer, and me fate was sealed. 90 00:05:45,860 --> 00:05:47,740 Despite the 20-year age gap, 91 00:05:47,740 --> 00:05:51,020 the couple's shared love of this way of life drew them together. 92 00:05:53,100 --> 00:05:58,580 Back in 1995, 42-year-old bachelor Clive was single-handedly running the farm 93 00:05:58,580 --> 00:06:02,460 when 21-year-old Amanda, a trainee shepherdess, came to call. 94 00:06:04,540 --> 00:06:09,740 The first time you and I met, it was a very dark evening, 95 00:06:09,740 --> 00:06:11,260 and I'd come to borrow a tuck. 96 00:06:13,060 --> 00:06:14,140 Yeah, remember? 97 00:06:14,140 --> 00:06:17,900 I do remember this six-foot-something woman. 98 00:06:17,900 --> 00:06:18,940 Mm-hm. 99 00:06:18,940 --> 00:06:20,380 Knocked at my door. 100 00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:22,220 He shouldn't have answered it, should he? 101 00:06:22,220 --> 00:06:24,220 No! 102 00:06:24,220 --> 00:06:27,780 But I was very taken with her. You couldn't not be. 103 00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:29,220 It was a slow burn thing. 104 00:06:29,220 --> 00:06:32,460 We kind of got to know each other, and we kind of made friends first, 105 00:06:32,460 --> 00:06:35,860 and then we went out a little bit together, 106 00:06:35,860 --> 00:06:40,060 and with us both coming from non-farming backgrounds, 107 00:06:40,060 --> 00:06:42,340 I think we're kind of like peas in a pod, really, 108 00:06:42,340 --> 00:06:44,340 although we didn't know that at the time. 109 00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:49,460 We have a lot to do, and we have to get to the end of what we have to do each day. 110 00:06:49,460 --> 00:06:51,860 So, although it looks chaotic, 111 00:06:51,860 --> 00:06:56,900 we're very focused and aware of where we should be, you know? 112 00:06:56,900 --> 00:07:00,580 We have a lot of things depending on us, not just children. 113 00:07:00,580 --> 00:07:03,700 So, you know, we have... 114 00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:05,540 But that's why they've got to be involved in it. 115 00:07:05,540 --> 00:07:07,380 We all work together as a family, 116 00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:10,100 and I really don't think that's a bad lesson to say, 117 00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:13,380 like, right, this is what needs doing and we all need to do it. 118 00:07:13,380 --> 00:07:16,900 I don't feel like that's sort of breeding your own workforce, 119 00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:18,220 cos it's not that. 120 00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:21,980 It's a fact of being involved and having that responsibility 121 00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:23,620 and feeling like you're a part of something. 122 00:07:23,620 --> 00:07:24,980 I think that's a good thing. 123 00:07:30,860 --> 00:07:33,740 Isolated by miles of surrounding moorland, 124 00:07:33,740 --> 00:07:37,180 in winter, the family can be snowed in for weeks at a time. 125 00:07:38,180 --> 00:07:40,300 Being cut off could be disastrous, 126 00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:42,260 and, convinced storms are on the way, 127 00:07:42,260 --> 00:07:44,620 Clive and Amanda prepare for the worst. 128 00:07:48,620 --> 00:07:51,140 There's, like, about two. 129 00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:54,300 Clive, you're not climbing in there for another turnip. 130 00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:55,660 Come on! 131 00:07:55,660 --> 00:07:58,580 Clive, it's a turnip. Will he come out of there? 132 00:07:58,580 --> 00:08:00,900 I want me turnip! 133 00:08:00,900 --> 00:08:04,540 If that shuts... If that shuts... 134 00:08:05,540 --> 00:08:09,100 He wants his very last turnip out of the 15-ton load. 135 00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:11,660 Never mind, it could be crushed to death or anything. 136 00:08:11,660 --> 00:08:13,380 He wants that to last turnip. 137 00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:18,620 When roads are blocked, Clive can't call in a mechanic 138 00:08:18,620 --> 00:08:20,300 to fix farmyard equipment, 139 00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:22,620 so he relies on 14-year-old Reuben 140 00:08:22,620 --> 00:08:26,300 to maintain the machines they depend on during winter. 141 00:08:26,300 --> 00:08:28,420 My dad's not too keen on mechanics, 142 00:08:28,420 --> 00:08:31,420 so I kind of just learnt myself with just taking stuff apart. 143 00:08:31,500 --> 00:08:35,380 You need computers to work on modern tractors. 144 00:08:35,380 --> 00:08:38,980 On this tractor, you just need a simple toolbox. 145 00:08:40,300 --> 00:08:41,460 Reuben!
