After watching Clarkson Farm I thought I would give this a go. And half way through it made me think of those cheap tribute acts you get in pubs.
Clearly want to sing their favourite artists songs and make a passable attempt at sounding a bit like them. Will always be a tribute act and not even close to the singer they want to be.

Yeah, the first episode of this show was nothing a poor Clarkson Farm tribute act (he even got the tractor that everyone told him was too big ffs ).

Yeah, it’s no Clarkson’s Farm. It’s sort of ok I suppose though if you’re just after a chocolate box view of farming, it’ll appeal to some of the Countryside audience. I won’t actually slag it off as a farmer though because you can clearly see how the stress of his situation has gradually dawned on him in spite of the jolly music. And they showed in close up the maggots chewing away at the sheep’s foot so fair play they’ve actually shown something of day to day reality.

Kelvin’s main problem is that we’ve already had Clarkson’s Farm and this just isn’t comparable, bless. I did chuckle though when he said he wanted to make a profit, then when out and bought a fabulously expensive tractor. That ain’t ever gonna get paid for out of his farming.
