Beloved farming series just days away from returning to screens after rival show brutally axed by BBC
Channel 5 has confirmed that season six of Springtime on the Farm will land on screens very soon.
Hosts Jules Hudson and Helen Skelton will welcome back viewers of the popular Channel 5 show to celebrate farmers during their busiest season.
In the upcoming season seven of Springtime on the Farm, the fan-favourite hosts will be joining brothers Rob and Dave Nicholson at Cannon Hall Farm in South Yorkshire as they prepare for lambing season with their 250-strong flock.
Meanwhile, JB Gill will be investigating the healing power of nature as he participates in the dawn chorus.
Vet Rohin Aojula will be heading off to West Midlands Safari Park to meet a young Sumatran tiger.
The first episode of season seven will kick off on April 15.
Last month, Jules shared the beaming snap on his Instagram and wrote: “Springtime on the Farm 2024 is confirmed.
“More details will follow, but in the comments below, let me know what your favourite bits have been over the last seven years.”
The confirmation of season seven comes following the announcement that rival BBC show, Autumwatch, was axed from screens.
Fans of the beloved nature programme were left stunned when the Beeb announced it had been dropped from schedules last year.
The BBC faced a massive backlash from nature fans following their decision to axe Autumnwatch.
More than 100 complaints were lodged with the broadcaster, prompting them to defend its cancellation.
However, last winter Autumnwatch joined forces with The One Show to screen three specials.
At the time, the BBC teased: “Viewers will see a variety of natural wonders, including the largest colony of Greater Horseshoe Bats in the UK, the annual red deer rut in the New Forest and the sounds of Tawny owls in Kielder Forest, Northumberland.
“Each VT will highlight the annual changes in animal behaviours throughout Autumn, as well as the work being done to protect the environment and local wildlife.”
Springtime on the Farm will be airing on Channel 5 on April 15.
