Among the sea of comments, fans wrote: “Why no #OurYorkshireFarm this week? It was advertised at the end of last week’s episode so where is it? It’s the absolute highlight of my week! @AmandaOwen8 xxx.”

Last week's episode teased a look at how the family would fend for themselves in the second lockdown as they face extreme weather.

It promised "next time" in the credits but it's not clear when the episode will air on TV.

Channel 5 have confirmed episode eight will air later in the year.

Our Yorkshire Farm fans were in uproar over why the episode won't be shown.

Others wrote: "@channel5_tv when is the last episode of the current series of #OurYorkshireFarm on? It is not in the listings for today. Last week it said at the end of the episode next time and about the family filming themselves as a second lockdown takes place.”

"@AmandaOwen8 I see there is no #OurYorkshireFarm tonight (according to #radiotimes). Are you back next week or is it a longer wait?”

“@AmandaOwen8 hi when is the next episode of Our Yorkshire Farm please?”

“Channel5_tv could you let us know what date and time episode 8 of Our Yorkshire Farm is on TV please as you are showing the new series about Ann Boleyn at 9pm in place of it and haven’t announced when Our Yorkshire Farm is on."

“@channel5_tv with #AnneBoleyn on at 9 when do we get to see the next episode of #OurYorkshireFarm as advertised as ‘Coming Next’?”

Jodie lifted the lid on the racist backlash she received as the first black actress to play the infamous Anne Boleyn.

She told Glamour magazine : “I had just become a mother and that was what really jumped out at me, the story of Anne as a mother.

"I did know it would be something that people felt very passionately about, either in a positive or a negative way, because Anne is a human in history who people feel very strongly about. More than anything, I wanted to tell the human story at the centre of all of this.

“[During filming] my daughter was only six months old and I was still nursing her. So to have the experience of working with people that have so much compassion for where I was in my journey as a mother, as we were telling the story about a mother, I feel there was just so much more compassion in the storytelling.”
