We Are England S2022E77 - Farming England Farming Fields of Gold

Shot over the summer of 2022, this fascinating film follows the working life of Cotswold farmer and culinary oil producer Charlie Beldam.

An international cooking oil shortage sparked by the war in Ukraine creates a busy summer for this family-run business. Charlie battles increased commodity costs, a factory working flat out and a record-breaking heatwave that delays the summer harvest of his oilseed rape. With a young family to juggle, this could well be Charlie's most challenging year yet.
