Reuben Owen: Life in the Dales returns to Channel 5 for its second season, chronicling the young entrepreneur’s expanding heavy plant machinery business in the Yorkshire Dales. The season premiere is set for Tuesday, May 20, at 8:00 PM.

His business growth includes the acquisition of a new 22-tonne digger, a purchase that prompts concern from his mum Amanda regarding its size. The episode also features Reuben’s brothers Miles and Sidney, who support the business, and shows Reuben and his brothers restoring a vintage tractor for a local village show.
