Farm Fixer

This week we’re going to see a fledgling Northern Irish craft brewer on the telly. Yes, you read that right – Northern Irish. Nick Hewer – one of Lord Sugar’s incisive advisers on The Apprentice and Countdown's new host – has turned business guru and headed to the land of his schooling to help a clutch of farmers make their businesses viable in the BBC's new show Farm Fixer.

Our hero, Gordon Fallis, has been brewing for a while from his small family farm just outside the village of Derrygonnelly on the shores of Lower Lough Erne in County Fermanagh. Following his visit, Nick swiftly becomes convinced that Gordon's Inishmacsaint Fermanagh Beer should spread its wings beyond the kitchen table. Hence several months later we meet them both on St Patrick’s Day in The Porterhouse bar in Covent Garden for the UK debut of his tasty brew.
