Yorkshire shepherdess Amanda Owen says screens have been her family’s “lifeline” and that it would be “incredibly hypocritical” to ban them for her children.
The 52-year-old stars in the Channel 4 documentary series Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive And Kids, which follows her life in the countryside with her nine children as they renovate a centuries-old derelict farmhouse known as Anty John’s into a modern home.
