UTV was once again back at the Balmoral Show this year, the highlight of the local farming calendar, and is bringing viewers the best bits of the four day extravaganza in a special hour-long programme to be aired tomorrow (Friday) night at 9pm.

As ever the show is all about farmers, foodies and families, and presenters Paul Reilly and Sarah Clarke will be showcasing the best of what the agricultural industry has to offer - the award-winning livestock, exciting competitions, the locally-produced food and drink, the plant and machinery, and family entertainment.

Sarah and Paul were talking to the RUAS president John Henning and Balmoral operations director Rhonda Geary, to get an insight into what was involved in the planning and run up to this year’s show, and what it means to them and all the people taking part.
