Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda Owen brands Clive 'unbearable' as she shares health update
Amanda Owen updated fans on her former husband Clive's recovery during a repeat broadcast of Our Farm Next Door, which airs tonight.
Amanda revealed to audiences that Clive had made his way back to the farm after his hip surgery because he had "lost his crutches".
"It has been a few weeks since Clive had his hip operation," she explained. "He has dumped the crutches, he's lost his crutches, actually.
"It puts him in a bit of a better humour when he can come outside and be a part of what is going on."
The mother-of-nine continued, "It has been very frustrating for him; that is me being polite," reports the Manchester Evening News.
Speaking directly to Clive afterwards, Amanda declared, "You have been unbearable," which made Clive chuckle.
"I have not," he shot back before insisting, "I have not, I have kept myself to myself. I've minded my own business, I don't think I have shouted at anybody or anything."
Offering him an illustration, Amanda responded: "One day, you were sat in your underpants staring at the floor in the kitchen."
"It's a really frustrating and horrible thing," Clive remarked as Amanda told him, "You really are a frustrating and horrible thing."
Clive appeared unfazed by the remark as he brushed it off with laughter.
Throughout the repeat of last week's Our Farm Next Door episode, Clive acknowledged he had been a "horrible patient" after his procedure.
"I have definitely been a horrible patient because I am impatient," the farmer admitted. "I couldn't have managed without these lads to do what needed doing. So yeah, they have done very well.
"It means from now on they needn't hand the reins back to me, they can just carry on," he added before joking with his son: "I could find myself redundant, what do you think, Miley?"
"That is what family farms are all about, everybody has to help."
Our Farm Next Door is available to watch on All4.

Amanda Owen has fans sobbing after sharing emotional update with beloved dog
Our Yorkshire Farm's Amanda Owen left fans feeling emotional after she shared some adorable photos of her and her children out in the Yorkshire Dales, with her beloved dog Amanda Owen had supporters reaching for the tissues after posting a touching message on social media. The Yorkshire Shepherdess became a household name alongside her family, including former spouse Clive - from whom she separated in 2022 - and son Rueben, through the Channel 5 programme Our Yorkshire Farm which launched in 2018. The programme brought viewers into the world of the Owen household, documenting the family's life on their vast 2000-acre property, Ravenseat Farm. The programme follows Amanda and her brood as they face the demanding task of renovating their fresh dilapidated farmhouse, reports the Express. Yet on Saturday (August 2) Amanda had supporters feeling rather sentimental following a touching social media update. Using her Instagram platform, Amanda posted some sweet photographs of herself and her youngsters exploring the Yorkshire Dales, accompanied by her cherished dog herding sheep. She wrote alongside the images with news about her latest television programme: "Whilst on the subject of gathering up, clipping, and turning away sheep. It is now time to chase ewe too. To Our Farm Next Door on channel 4 at 6.10pm tonight Saturday)." However, it was a particular image of Amanda with her dog that sparked considerable discussion. Flocking to the comments area, admirers couldn't hold back their feelings as they highlighted how the dog gazes at Amanda with "so much love". One individual commented: "How the dog looks at you we can see there is so much love." Another concurred: "Your gorgeous collie looks at you with so much love." A third added their voice: "What a good dog." This follows Amanda's devastating news from her farm last week, where she found that two of the pens had been vandalised. Alongside the video, Amanda wrote: "Cross, cross, cross. This is not the normal kind of post I do. Not the kind of post that I want to do. "I know that it will not make any difference whatsoever, but still I hope that someone, somewhere might feel a little uncomfortable or even ashamed. "These places are invaluable, a part of our history and heritage, they do not formally belong to anyone but have been used by for centuries by shepherds, farmers and commoners. They are still in use to this day."

Midsomer Murders star 'never thought' they'd return after 22 years to replace detective
Daniel Casey played DS Gavin Troy alongside John Nettles Daniel Casey never imagined he would revisit Midsomer Murders after departing the programme 22 years ago. The actor famously played DS Gavin Troy in the beloved ITV series alongside John Nettles, who brought detective Tom Barnaby to life. Yet despite having no previous inclination to make a comeback, Daniel is now preparing to fill John Nettles' considerable boots as he takes on the role of DCI Tom Barnaby in a brand new theatrical adaptation of The Killings at Badger's Drift. Discussing his upcoming role, Daniel described it as "a massive promotion" whilst recognising he has "big shoes to fill." In conversation with the Northern Echo, Daniel offered a heartfelt tribute to John, revealing he "learned at the feet of the master", reports the Manchester Evening News. "Barnaby and Troy had an almost father/son, mentor/pupil relationship, and that is very much like my relationship with John," the actor explained. "When he learned that I was taking on the role in the play, he said, 'Well, he's learned at the feet of the master.'" Daniel and John worked side by side from the pilot episode in 1996 to 2003, when Daniel chose to depart. "I spent all those years standing next to him, watching and listening, so hopefully I have absorbed a bit of his magic," he added. "It's a bit daunting, because his are big shoes to fill, but I'm really excited about doing it." He went on to say about his return: "I never thought that I would revisit it. I had such a happy time playing Troy from when I was 24 to when I was 31. It was a fantastic time in my career." The fresh stage production follows DCI Tom Barnaby and DS Gavin Troy as they investigate the puzzling demise of Emily Simpson, a cherished spinster from the village of Badger's Drift. According to its synopsis, the play promises "a night of murder and mystery, full of theatricality and intrigue, with the central partnership of Barnaby and Troy, a whole host of English eccentrics, and this real dark undercurrent of secrets and lies. " DS Gavin Troy wasn't directly replaced in Midsomer Murders; instead, his character gradually disappeared from the series. John Nettles handed over the investigative reins to Neil Dudgeon, who stepped into the role of DCI John Barnaby in 2011, accompanied by his new partner, DS Jamie Winter, portrayed by Nick Hendrix. Meanwhile, the cameras are rolling for the upcoming series of Midsomer Murders, which is set to grace our screens next year.
