There is always a lot on offer at the National Ploughing Championships, but someone who's bringing something a bit different is Mairead Loughman from Love HQ who joined our Mairead on the show for a chat.

The matchmaker to the farming world has sent more than 5,000 people on dates over the last few years, so it came as no surprise that a few couples had already been matched up on day 1 of the Ploughing.

She provides everything from carefully curated one-on-one matchmaking, to group events like The Farmer Wants a Wife which we can safely assume will be a big hit with the crowds at the Ploughing this week!
