BBC Three - The Fast and the Farmer-ish, Series 1, Scotland Heat

It’s a wild tractor ride with the Highlands against the Lowlands in this Scottish heat.

It’s a wild ride with the Highlands against the Lowlands in the Scottish heat. Two teams with agriculture in the blood, but only one can make it to the semi-finals.

In the Scottish heat, we meet the tough-skinned Teutchers from the wilds of the north, and the slurry-spreading, buckraking Black Reek Pipers from Ayrshire. There’s not much these drivers don’t know about tractors, from driving to repairing them – and with this bunch, repairs are needed frequently!

Hosted by full-time farmer and YouTuber Tom Pemberton, the show sees both teams go head-to-head in three spectacular, high-octane agricultural challenges. From crashing through massive walls and building towering structures to attempting not to lose their balls – this kind of farming means there is never a dull moment!

When the engine noise fades, one team will take to the podium to celebrate as the losers take to their tractor cabs and the homebound drive of shame.
