Former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher and his wife Liz have announced that their ITV programme, Fletcher’s Family Farm, will return for a fourth series in February 2026. The couple shared the news on the show’s official Instagram account, thanking fans for their overwhelming support following the most recent series, which aired earlier this year.
In a playful video, the couple’s son called out “Lights, camera, action” before the announcement was revealed. The post read: “Spoiler alert! Series 4 incoming! No need for those Series 3 blues as we are busy filming Series 4.... and you can watch in February 2026!” They added that the response to the series had been “truly overwhelming” and expressed gratitude to viewers for joining them on their journey.
The update comes after a Christmas special that documented the family’s holiday trip to Austria. Fans flooded the comments with praise, describing the Fletchers as “down-to-earth” and “lovely.” One wrote: “This is one of my favourite shows - you come across as such a lovely, down-to-earth family.” Another added: “Yay! Can't wait to see how you've all been doing. How is the house renovation coming along?”
The couple, who have known each other since childhood, began dating in 2009, got engaged in 2014, and married in 2015. They purchased their farm in 2021 after plans to relocate to California were derailed by the pandemic. The move was documented in Kelvin’s Big Farming Adventure and later Fletcher’s Family Farm, showcasing the realities of rural life.
Reflecting on their decision during an appearance on BBC Breakfast, Kelvin said: “I personally don’t want to seek any sort of validation elsewhere. I know how valued we are as a family and what we do in our small family farm. You take great pride in producing food and having a real acknowledgement towards nature, towards the habitat. You’re a custodian of the land, and it’s a privilege.”
