Strictly Come Dancing winner Kelvin Fletcher is set to return to screens for another instalment of Fletchers' Family Farm.
The ITV reality show follows the former Emmerdale actor in his new farming role on the family farm in the picturesque Peak District, filmed alongside wife Liz and their four children.
Season one debuted in October last year, with ITV announcing today (May 29) that a second series will air later this winter.

The Fletchers have teased more adventures in the second series, with the family welcoming a herd of pregnant cows to their farm. Viewers will also see how the Fletchers fare during lambing season and their visit to the county fair.

"Last series was an exciting one, as well as being extremely entertaining and insightful for viewers at home," she says. "We can’t wait to have them all back on our screens!"
