The best tractor driving teams from Northern Ireland and Scotland rip it up in this semi-final. With the challenges bigger and tougher than ever, which team can race to the final?

The best tractor drivers from Northern Ireland and Scotland rip it up in this semi-final. With the challenges bigger and tougher than ever, which team can race to the final?

Hosted by full-time farmer and YouTuber Tom Pemberton, the show sees  both teams go head-to-head in three high-octane agricultural challenges. This semi-final includes bowling on an epic scale with tractor tyres, squeezing through tight spaces at speed and taking on a fiendishly tricky relay that tests driving skills as well as memory. These two teams are a long, long way from the family farm.

When the racing helmets come off, one team will take to the podium to celebrate making it to the grand final, and the losers take to their tractor cabs and drive off into the distance.
