Setting out to make a profit from selling pork
Progress is slow on the farm shop
The pressure mounts for Jimmy
The farm shop opens
Battling to keep his dream on track, Jimmy has to learn to be the boss as staff grow restless. He also struggles to keep his favourite pig alive. And there's a visit from the police to deal with.
With staff numbers down, the animals take advantage and run amok. Undaunted, Jim goes to prison to get a new boar; collects 100 demanding ex-battery hens; and struggles with an unwelcome delivery.
There's a killer decimating the chickens; Porridge the prize boar is out of control; and 800,000 unruly bees are getting agitated. Jimmy's unfailing optimism is tested to the limit.
Final episode: The farm is threatened by a monetary meltdown; Jimmy's prize boar is looking dangerously close to death's door; and Jimmy poisons a key member of staff.
Jimmy Doherty returns with a third series of Jimmy’s Farm and for once money is coming in and the farm is making hay. Though not everything is smooth sailing as Jimmy still has his hands full with over heating pigs and fly stricken sheep, naughty sheepdog puppies and the latest moneymaking scheme, a guinea pig village.
Undeterred by the anthrax scare, Jimmy throws his energies into ambitious expansion plans. A new general manager, Mike, is hired to realise these grand designs, but the money-making festive season slips away when the butchery's ordering system descends into chaos. Polish farm worker Tomas has trouble making himself understood. Porridge the prize-winning Essex saddleback boar returns in the most revolting fashion. And there is a murder in Guinea Pig Village.
Jimmy and Mike press ahead with their grand plans, even though no one's added up the real cost of 'Turkeygate'. Disaster strikes when a bank loan suddenly falls through. The ensuing cash-flow problem leaves Jimmy unable to pay staff wages and facing insolvency. Plus, it's lambing season, and Max the sheepdog runs off during the local field trial.
Despite the accountants' insistence that the business is finished, Jimmy is convinced he can fight his way back to profitability. Jimmy's girlfriend Michaela grabs the helm when Mike the manager is forced to leave. Can they save the farm one last time?
Jimmy's pigs are running a little too wild, so a new face is brought in - local stockman Steve. Steve has to help solve one of Jimmy's biggest problems to date - the farm is running out of pigs and Jimmy is losing money.
