On Your Farm - 05/07/2009

Tom Heap visits the farm of pig breeder Malcolm Hicks, as he prepares for the last ever Royal Show. Malcolm has won many times before at The Royal and has high hopes that Josephine, a 300 kilo pedigree Gloucester Old Spot Sow, will not so much be bringing home the bacon from Stoneleigh as a large silver trophy to further enhance the reputation of his herd. Living only a few miles from the show ground, it has always been Malcolm's local show and he explains to Tom the important role the event has played in building his business, and also in the social lives of farmers and their families.
