Comedian and farmer Jim Smith grew up on a family farm with his mum, dad, sisters and his granny and grandad all in the one place. Being in such close proximity had its ups and its downs, with company never being an issue but tension and friction always a possibility.

Me and the Farmer is a stand up show chronicling Jim's life as a working farmer in rural Perthshire. This isn't an act. By day, Jim works the land and looks after his sheep and by night he performs stand up to sold out venues across Scotland.

In each episode, Jim tells anecdotes about life on his family farm to a live audience in his nearest city of Perth. This is an honest, behind the scenes look at what it takes to be a modern farmer.
