Kelvin Fletcher has called accusations that he “copied” Jeremy Clarkson’s farming show “unfair”.The former Emmerdale actor and wife Liz Marsland - who are currently expecting twins - are the stars of new show Kelvin’s Big Farming Adventure.The BBC follows the couple as they set up their 120-acre working farm on the edge of the Peak District, despite having no farming experience between them. Jeremy Clarkson launched his own farm last year called Diddly Squat Farm and documented his experience in running it for the Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm. As a result, Kelvin has received some criticism that he has tried to ‘copy’ Jeremy’s show, something which he denies in a new podcast interview.

Kelvin Fletcher will be a familiar face to many - a former soap star, and now with his own farming show, he's no stranger to the world of TV.
The actor, 38, played Andy Sugden in ITV's Emmerdale from 1996 until his exit in 2016.
Now he's starring alongside Sheridan Smith in Channel 5 drama The Teacher.
The role will see Kelvin, from Oldham, play a married IT teacher called Jack, who begins a workplace flirtation with a fellow educator.

He's featured on other programmes since his Emmerdale departure, though.
In 2019, he put his dancing skills to the test and clinched the Strictly Come Dancing trophy alongside professional partner Oti Mabuse.
And more recently, Kelvin has been gracing our screens with his latest venture on BBC One.
Kelvin and his wife decided to swap city life in Manchester for something different.
Along with their two children, the couple relocated to the Peak District, where they purchased a 120-acre farm.
He might have played a farmer on Emmerdale, but neither Kelvin nor his wife have had previous farming experience.
The couple have been documenting their antics on the programme Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure, as they get to grips with the basics of agriculture.
Their plan had always been to restore the farmland and run it themselves, despite the challenges they face along the way as they delve into a whole new world.
So he's an actor, a farmer and a talented dancer - but Kelvin's talents don't end there; he is also a model and a racing car driver.
Kelvin is married to actress Liz Marsland, who portrayed Liz Steele in the 2014 BBC series In the Club.
Liz trained at the Manchester School
