Kelvin Fletcher, of Fletchers' Family Farm fame on ITV, has previously appeared on the show alongside the likes of JLS' JB Gill and Our Yorkshire Farm's Reuben Owen.  

A sneak peak of the new series shows the gang getting stuck in with farming jobs including feeding livestock, cleaning barns and helping to bring new life into the world.

Additional adventures will see Helen and JB visit a vineyard, and farmer Dave from Cannon Hall Farm taking a winter dip in ice cold water. 

The show will air at 8pm every night from Tuesday (December 3) on Channel 5 until Friday (December 6).
