The cameras have returned to the Yorkshire Dales in an exciting development

Reuben Owen has confirmed he's currently filming new content for Channel 5 after a film crew was spotted on location.

The Our Yorkshire Farm star and son of Amanda and Clive Owen has become a fan-favourite in his own right since making his debut as a boy in the Channel 5 series.


When Our Yorkshire Farm drew to a close following Clive and Amanda's split, Reuben went on to work with his dad in a short-lived spin-off series, Beyond the Yorkshire Farm: Reuben & Clive.

But he wasn't done with television as he made a triumphant return to screens earlier this year in his very own series, Life in the Dales.

The show's debut season followed the young farmer as he got to grips with running his own contracting business and carrying out tough jobs in the Dales alongside then-girlfriend Sarah Dow and close pal Tommy McWhirter.

However, since the show's first run came to a close, Reuben and Sarah sadly split and Tommy looked all but certain to venture on a new career path as a trucker, sparking doubts over the future of the show.

Now though, it appears Life in the Dales fans needn't have any fears as Reuben took to Instagram to confirm camera crews have arrived to document what he's up to now.

On Thursday, a new colleague of Reuben's shared a series of updates on social media showing the Channel 5 star in action in front of a crew.

"Film crew is here," Reuben's pal, who uses the username @willscrushing, posted on Instagram followed by a pair of staring eyes emoji.

In another update, the friend recorded the Our Yorkshire Farm star from afar as he struggled with a piece of equipment during a piece to camera.

"Grease gun comes out when the cameras do @reubenowen74," the Instagram user captioned the post as he teased Reuben, again followed by an eyes emoji.

And the filming continued early on Friday morning too as he shared a video from his excavator with the caption: "We go again @reubenowen74 @warwickwardmachineryltd."

News of the cameras returning to follow Reuben will be welcomed by fans who were left devastated when Our Yorkshire Farm came to an end in 2022.

Loyal followers often share their excitement when Reuben and his eight siblings or his parents offer up updates via social media.

Just this week, Reuben was inundated with praise when he showed off a big-budget "addition" he'd purchased for his business.

The young farmer flaunted a brand-new excavator which, when purchased brand new, can fetch upwards of six figures.

His mum Amanda, also known as the Yorkshire Shepherdess, has been taking a bit of a hiatus from the public eye.

She briefly returned to the spotlight in a social media post alongside her son earlier this year but has remained relatively quiet since closing the doors to Ravenseat last summer.
