Boycie is sceptical when his farm-hands suddenly start to compete with each other in increasingly ridiculous agricultural stunts in order to take part in the television reality show 'Farm Idol'. However, having seen the glamorous producer Antonia, he is anxious to compete for the crown and joins his staff at the television studio in Shrewsbury. Marlene,however, makes plans of her own including her playing hostess to a handsome young man - which inevitably gives Mrs. Cakeworthy the wrong idea and Boycie the hump. —don @ minifie-1

Fifteen Minutes

As much as the efforts of other writers to mimic the style of John Sullivan were commendable, a level of inconsistency in the writing quality of 'TGGG' emerged in the episodes in which he did not write.

This episode written by David Cantor is a good example. The premise is just a bit too silly for its own good, and I didn't understand why Ray was suddenly a rival to Boycie when there had been no evidence of this previously.

There is a subplot involving Mrs Cakeworthy and Marlene, but that's not up to much either.

Not a great episode.
