Matt Baker TV show gives people chance to take on Northumberland farm

A new eight-part TV series is to follow the fortunes of seven hopefuls in their bid to land the tenancy of a farm on a historic National Trust estate in Northumberland.

The trust is joining forces with production company Big Circus Media to create the More4 series, centred on Gallows Hill Farm at Wallington. Set up in 2020 by North East-born TV presenter Matt Baker and Gareth Collett, Big Circus Media is a regional production company specialising in making factual entertainment and documentary series. The company is behind Matt Baker: Our Farm in the Dales, which is now in its third series.

Set in the centre of the Wallington estate, Gallows Hill totals 137 hectares and a Grade II listed farmhouse with views across the Northumbrian countryside, and includes a variety of traditional and modern farm buildings.
