Kelvin and Liz Fletcher, along with their four children, are set to charm viewers once again as ITV recommissions "Fletchers' Family Farm" for a second series. The show, which offers a heartfelt glimpse into the life of the Fletcher family as they navigate the challenges of rural living, will return to ITV1 and ITVBe this winter.

Kelvin Fletcher, best known for his role on Emmerdale, and his wife Liz, an actress and model, have embraced their new life as farmers in the picturesque Peak District. The first series captivated audiences with its blend of genuine family moments and the realities of farm life. Now, viewers can look forward to more of the same as the Fletchers open their doors once more.

Produced by Leeds-based Daisybeck Studios, the new series promises even more excitement and adventure. The Fletchers will expand their livestock, including welcoming a herd of pregnant cows, face an emotionally charged lambing season, and participate in the county fair showring. The 10-part series, each episode an hour long, will continue to highlight the joys and struggles of farming life, set against the stunning backdrop of the National Park.

Leanne Clarke, Assistant Commissioner of Entertainment & Daytime at ITV, expressed her enthusiasm for the show's return: "We are thrilled to have Kelvin, Liz, and the family return for a second series. Last series was an exciting one, as well as being extremely entertaining and insightful for viewers at home. We can't wait to have them all back on our screens!"

Kelvin Fletcher shared his excitement about filming the second series: "We're incredibly excited to return to filming for the second series of Fletchers' Family Farm. The response from our viewers has been truly heartwarming and inspiring!"

Liz Fletcher added, "It's a genuine honour to invite the viewers back to our farm as we continue on this journey."

The production team at Daisybeck Studios, including Executive Producer Ben Harris and Series Producer Kim Metcalfe, are equally excited to continue documenting the Fletchers' journey. Harris noted, "Life on the farm is busier than ever, with a host of new livestock additions, an increasingly challenging market and four young children in tow. Kelvin and Liz truly have their work cut out, and we will be with them to capture all of the highs and lows as they face each challenge head on."

Metcalfe echoed this sentiment: "It's truly exciting to be back this year, we can't wait to bring the audience more unforgettable moments and inspiring stories from the Fletcher Family. It's set to be another season of laughter, love, and the beauty of rural life!"

With the promise of new challenges, heartwarming family moments, and the enchanting scenery of the Peak District, the second series of "Fletchers' Family Farm" is set to deliver even more engaging and inspiring content. Viewers can look forward to joining the Fletchers on their continued journey this winter.
