Cheshire may be flooded with supercars but Kelvin Fletcher had not qualms about rocking up to breakfast in his tractor. Fans of former Emmerdale star know that he has partially turned his back on the spotlight to set up his very own farm with wife, Liz Marsland.
A few years ago along with their then two children, the couple relocated to the Peak District, where they purchased a 120-acre farm. And while he might have played farmer Andy Sugden in the Yorkshire-set ITV soap, neither Kelvin nor his wife have had previous farming experience.
Kelvin and Liz then documented their new challenge in their own BBC One programme, Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure, which aired earlier this year as they get to grips with the basics of agriculture. And their plan had always been to restore the farmland and run it themselves, despite the challenges they faced along the way as they delved into a whole new world.
