Episode 1: A Taste of the Country
Summary
Review
I’m sure that running a smallholding is actually incredibly hard work but, boy, this makes it look like heaven on earth. Although to be fair, this is more about preparing and cooking gorgeous food than muddy boots and heavy-duty farming work.
We join former London chef Julius Roberts, 25, for his first summer in Dorset: the sun is shining, the young goats are cute, the hens are laying and there’s an abundance of produce to pick and cook. Not surprisingly, chums and family frequently drop by to eat. Think early Jamie Oliver (kebabs are “sexy” while risotto is “whacked” around the pan), but rustic.

Later, he ropes in his brothers Jocelyn and Lucian to help fix fencing and move his rams to a new area on the smallholdingReview
