Channel 4 has commissioned Red Sky with Parky Productions to deliver a fast-turnaround series, Spring at Jimmy’s Farm (w/t), providing viewers with the opportunity to see spring erupt in our countryside from the safety of their homes.

Whilst many of us are having to catch glimpses of spring through windows and from back gardens, the season is bursting into life on Jimmy Doherty’s Suffolk farm.

Isolation can be a difficult and lonely time for many, but Grayson is on a mission to unleash our collective creativity and unite the nation through art, as we live through this unique crisis.

Every week Grayson will host the show from his studio - taking the country with him as he creates new art works. Grayson will talk to other famous artists, creatives and celebrity guests about how they are spending their time in isolation and host masterclasses to help teach us all how to create art.  Never tried creating art before? Then this is your chance. Each episode will be themed with something inspired by being in isolation, such as still life or portraits. Grayson will take inspiration from the everyday little things, as he helps you unleash the artistic side you never knew you had.
