Rhiane and the Black Girls Hike team made a memorable appearance in this week's launch episode of 'The UK's National Parks with Caroline Quentin'. Each week, Caroline visits a number of NPs across the country and in this first show, she headed to Gummer's How in the Lake District, where she met a local group of women whose lives have been transformed by their experiences in nature since joining Black Girls Hike. It's a beautiful, moving meet-up and testament to Rhiane's achievements since setting up the organisation from a single hike in 2019. If you missed the programme, you can catch up now on Channel 4. The series airs on Monday nights, 9pm on More4.
Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids - new More4 series
We're thrilled to announce a new ob-doc series from Leeds-based Wise Owl Films following ‘Yorkshire Shepherdess’ Amanda Owen and her family as they renovate a derelict farmhouse. Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids charts the Owens’ journey to breathe life back into a derelict neighbouring property they bought to plan for the family’s future. The series sees Amanda, Clive and their nine children work with a team of local tradespeople to slowly bring their ambitious vision for the farmhouse - known locally as Anty John’s - to life, tackling the changing seasons and challenging elements along the way, as well as getting to grips with the nature of restoring a listed property in a remote location. Cameras also follow Amanda as she digs deep into the farmhouse’s past and reveals the fascinating part its former owners played in local history. The series was commissioned by Channel 4 in a deal secured via Jo Cantello of Wolfsong Media, Amanda Owen's agent. TX dates to be announced soon.
