Kelvin Fletcher has announced some exciting but emotional news about the upcoming series of Fletcher’s Farm.
The former Emmerdale star took to Instagram to share the news alongside his wife, Liz.
Taking to the show’s Instagram story, Liz told Kelvin she had a “big reveal” before joking: “Don’t worry, I am not pregnant.”
Instead, she showed her husband a painting she had done that was being hung in one of their guest cottages.
In another clip, Kelvin addressed his followers and shared an update on filming for their series.
He said Fletcher’s Farm is due to be released “at the end of the year”, and filming is underway at the farm.
The actor went on to share some emotional news from the farm about the new arrivals they had welcomed over spring.
During the first Instagram story, Kelvin is seen walking up the stairs to his wife, he said to the camera: “Just in the cottage. Liz has just done a quick clean as we’re waiting for some new guests, and we’re just filming a little bit of… what is it?”
“It’s a reveal,” Liz replied before joking: “Don’t worry, I’m not pregnant.”
Liz went on to show her husband a painting she had done, although he didn’t seem as impressed as cameraman Sam, who said, “I love it.”
Kelvin joked, “It does look good on here (the camera), but to the naked eye…”
In the next clip, Kelvin was back outside to give his followers an update on life and the upcoming series of Fletcher’s Farm.
He began, “Hey guys, I just thought I’d jump on. I feel like I’ve not been on here for a little bit, catching up with everybody. Hope you’re all well, couple of things to report.
“We are in the midst of series three filming at the minute, that’s very busy. We’ve got, obviously, a camera crew and a film crew here every day.
“We’re just capturing every day on the farm. Obviously, lambing has been and gone now. The sheep are thriving. The lambs are looking amazing. It’s been the best lambing experience we’ve ever had. Spoiler alert. Without a little bit of drama as well, though, which I’m sure you can all see on the TV show.”
Kelvin went on to address when the series is coming out and without giving an exact date, he continued: “I think end of the year it’s coming out.
“We have not been given any proper dates yet, but series three, I keep being asked, ‘when is it on?’ Autumn time it normally comes on.
“Cows are in calf. They’re about to calf. We’ve got some paddock grazing setups. We’re getting a bit geeky with our grass products, and you’ll have also seen from our previous posts that we’re a mixed farm now.”
He added that they have had a “farm revelation” because the farm has been able to grow oats for the first time in 20 years.
To wrap up the video, Kelvin teased some “exciting things happening in the barn”. “We’ve got some exciting projects coming up, we’ve got an amazing event coming up, there’s a lot coming up.
“I’m just trying to think strategically, what I can say and what I can’t, spoiler alert, and all that. Thanks again for all your support, your messages, it means so much.”
