It is absurd to install solar panels on arable land. Solar farms is an unacceptable name. Here, in Chile, we have the largest solar park in the world, but it is in the middle of the driest desert in the world (Atacama desert)! I'm glad the great actor John Nettles supports this cause.

No, it really isn't. It's numb thinking like that that presumes we can rely on oil and gas as an option. It's not an option. I don't care what identity based belief system, you belong to, we cannot compete in arable production, and farming cannot support the landscape you demand. its doesn't come for free. We have enough land for solar and farming
This is what I, an American whose ancestors left those "green and pleasant lands" about 500 years ago, think of when I think of England. How terribly sad. Love John Nettles!

I support alternative energy but don't understand how cloudy, wet old England is a good place. I live in the American southwest. We are dry and hot with vast tracks of land not suitable for agriculture or abandoned by mining companies for taxpayers to clean up. Our energy future needs to be thought through more carefully , based on the particular environment.

Ultraviolet rays are always radiating despite cloud cover. I live in the constantly sunny southern Rocky Mountain high desert, so lucky, lucky me! I have been to beautiful England, Cornwall and Wales, and I understand the need to preserve traditional farms, but we also need to reverse climate change and save Mother Earth. Surely there may be compromise? Best wishes!
This is a source of heartbreak that is unrelieved. I can not be comforted for the loss of birds and beautiful living things that have become rare. Birdsong was the music of my childhood and the woods and fields were life.

This is so true worldwide! Here in Michigan , USA, we have lots of rain and snow and get as cold as -30F in the winter near Detroit. Not suitable weather. And they put the solar panels on crop land, not marginal land. So the panels don’t produce electricity every day. There is not even the benefit of producing the panels in our country, but the panels come from China. I agree with you. Solar panels should go on factory roofs, house roofs, and the electricity produced should be available to the homeowners, factories, instead of the electric companies only.

Really sad to see these enormous solar farms utilizing precious land that is beautiful, home to wildlife, and next to farms and homes. Biodiversity is sacrificed in the name of industry. Best of luck to you in stopping developers from ruining your countryside. Jenny, Seattle, WA, USA
Here in the states when there are huge unpopular projects like this , by the time they call for public input , they’ve already made up their minds to go ahead with the project. They have meetings to have the people urging them not to go ahead , the bureaucrats up front will pretend to listen , picking their noses , watch their phones ect. knowing they’ve already got a done deal! Money always talks louder than constituents.

As a woman who has grown up in the city of Elizabeth, NJ, with the Bayway Refinery perhaps within 2 miles of where I lived, I find that "Big Money" which finances the campaigns of our bureaucrats, interweaves them in support of these Mega Corporations. It will be a continuing struggle between these huge corporations and the little individual. In the meantime all life on this planet is struggling on this planet due to the effects of Climate Change.

Dear Mr John Nettles, I am a fan from New York City. We found Midsomer Murders and tonight we watched the episode in which you gave notice of retirement at your birthday party. I cried! I was rather shocked at how attached I had become to your character. We throughly enjoyed the episodes since discovering them. I hope you will read my message. If you do please let me know. I so admire you and your program and the towns and characters in the show. I wish I could meet you. A sincere fan Mrs. Suzanne HEMMINGER from Queens, New York.

i totally agree with John nettles and the people that live in that area it is happening here in the United states to our farmlands as well i can't believe this is happening if something's not broke you don't fix it destroying mother nature where do they think we're going to get our vegetables and fruits from
Wishing you the best of luck, it’s a sad situation for land owners. Such a shame to ruin one of the world’s most beautiful country side, plus the history of the land. Also ruining property value for the farmers. Please keep an update. Surely John will bring awareness to public for support. Midsummer Murders is a favorite of mine, seen them all more than once.

Its happening in our neck of the woods in Southern Illinois, little Egypt tucked between the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. We are battling to stop the destruction of good farmland with solar farms that are planted with tons of concrete. NO FARMS NO FOOD.
Food production in the US is so massive that we have tons of it for export. The price of the food is then so low that some small farmers cannot make a living. By decreasing supply using less land will increase the price and create a situation where the government need not supply subsidies to farmers to not produce and the small farmer can avoid selling the land to big agra businesses It is a win-win in the end for some of that unused farmland to be devoted to solar energy production. And I think it may also be true for England as well.
It beggars belief, if you think about all our urban friends that have no option but to work in the cities, their only chance of escaping to the country for a holiday to enjoy the fresh air and views go cycling take that away and where do these people go for a break from their everyday concrete filled lives.
I hope Mr. Nettle’s campaign worked. What an amazing place to grow up. I’m afraid the truth of the matter is that farmers are no longer able to earn a living wage, and the younger generation doesn’t want to farm. We have fewer and fewer family owned farms in the US. The Agra. Companies seem to be buying every bit of land they can. I love watching Midsomer Murder reruns!
My grandparents - William and Clara Lilian (Glasson) Pollard grew up in Cornwall and her mother was Clara Glasson. Grandma had a brother - who never left Cornwall - James. Around 1919, Willie and "Lilian" - along with their 5-year old daughter (my mother), Lilian "Hazel", immigrated to the USA, settling in Michigan. By the way, I've really enjoyed your acting in the Midsomer Murders series!

As a trained ecologist I can appreciate the objections to this . Funnily enough, I think John Nettles USED to live near Stratford upon Avon as I do, and there is a similar ‘ solar farm ‘ on pasture land near here, though on a smaller scale to the Devon one. Sadly one of the objections seemed to be about the weather and rain with the comment ‘ it should be sited further south ‘. Where then exactly? - Devon is as far south as you can get in the UK ! But the despoliation of the landscape in an area of high tourism and more to the point the toxicity of the products making up the solar panels are totally valid as objections. The bottom line is, we should ALL use less electricity, and as the old cliche says ‘ Live simply that others may simply live ‘.
I'm on my third viewing of the entire 21 season series of Midsomer Murders. That said, I'm delighted to see John Nettles doing his part, not as the fictional Chief Detective Inspector, but as an advocate to block, if at all possible, the installation of ever more inefficient solar panels on Devon's countryside. The series, which always took pains to portray the land and villages at their most beautiful was, and remains, a good part of its charm. To damage and degrade such land, for the sake of no real long term energy benefit, not to mention solars renowned lack of reliability, borders on the criminal. Best of luck in your efforts to stop it expansion.
Great Fan from *INSPECTOR BARNABY * in Cologne ,Germany😍 By the Way,you are right JOHN.WE ARE ALSO FIGHTING AGAINST THESE IDIOTS.HOPE THAT THESE SATANIC SYSTEM, WILL GO DOWN IN THE NEXT MONTHS👹👹
Solar Panels should be put on the roof of Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, etc so the Queen does her bit. Solar Farms should be designed to look like Ponds and Lakes - its not Rocket Science.
They should put these in ugly parts of the U.K., parts that have long been ruined. Put them on the tops of flat roof tower blocks in London, put them in city parks as its cities that use the most energy, put them in airport fields. I grew up and lived in Devon until 1999 when I moved to Canada and now live in Austria. Devon is a very special landscape who’s major industry is tourism, people trying to reconnect with natural beauty, put these things in and that natural beauty is gone and with it Devon’s largest industry, after all, who wants to drive around fields of black glass!

As we attempt to change to clean energy, we must not cut our noses off to spite our face. Good, clean energy, but at 8 billion & counting, we will need to focus 80 percent of our attention to food: seeding; harvesting, preping, making other foods, transport of food, etc. Use deserts for solar farms like here in Nevada (home of Las Vegas) USA but 80 percent of our state can't be farmed, its desert basically, so lets get the farms where they do the most good & leave good food producing soil intact.
ABSOLUTELY INSANE! I live in Oregon USA and our weather is identical to Devon. We call "rain" Oregon sunshine. This installation will destroy the very soul of the UK visually. Shame on these solar companies.
Don’t shoot the messenger. The solar companies are not at fault. It’s the folks who approved these “ farms” you need to call to task. I don’t know who approved solar panels to be built over large areas of land, but it’s probably time to go after your politicians. We had solar panels on our roof in California. We charged 2 electric cars, ran air conditioning, and normal household use. Our electric bill was very low. We now live in WA state. Climate here is much like England. We were told solar panels wouldn’t be cost effective. I certainly wouldn’t want my garden or farm to be covered with panels!
Mister Nettles has such a wonderful, pleasant and distinct voice. He could narrate anything, and I’d listen to it.
Couldn’t agree more

I just love this man. I watch re-runs of Midsomer Murders all the time just to look at him and hear his beautiful voice. Such a dignified, classy man.

Thank you for fighting to keep nature as God intended. These solar farms are not helping as renewable energy when they are upsetting the ecology and natural and organic farming that is healthy.
It is a shame since England imports around 80% of their food. You would think being more self reliant food wise would be more important.
This exactly, more energy will be saved by producing local food rather than flying , boating or trucking it in

That cloud shadow on the fields near the beginning is one of the best images I've ever seen. Indescribably stunning!!
Looking Good John! The Best Barnaby Ever! Hope It Gets Re Solved.

It is absurd to install solar panels on arable land. Solar farms is an unacceptable name. Here, in Chile, we have the largest solar park in the world, but it is in the middle of the driest desert in the world (Atacama desert)! I'm glad the great actor John Nettles supports this cause.

Great actor 😂😂😂😂 second rate Eddie Shoestring....
No, it really isn't. It's numb thinking like that that presumes we can rely on oil and gas as an option. It's not an option. I don't care what identity based belief system, you belong to, we cannot compete in arable production, and farming cannot support the landscape you demand. its doesn't come for free. We have enough land for solar and farming
I agree with you john
This is what I, an American whose ancestors left those "green and pleasant lands" about 500 years ago, think of when I think of England. How terribly sad. Love John Nettles!

I support alternative energy but don't understand how cloudy, wet old England is a good place. I live in the American southwest. We are dry and hot with vast tracks of land not suitable for agriculture or abandoned by mining companies for taxpayers to clean up. Our energy future needs to be thought through more carefully , based on the particular environment.

Ultraviolet rays are always radiating despite cloud cover. I live in the constantly sunny southern Rocky Mountain high desert, so lucky, lucky me! I have been to beautiful England, Cornwall and Wales, and I understand the need to preserve traditional farms, but we also need to reverse climate change and save Mother Earth. Surely there may be compromise? Best wishes!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!!!🍰🎂
I think you are fab. Xxxx
Happy BIRTHDAY John 🎂🎊
⭐🎬🎭💙
Love myself some John Nettles!😍
This is a source of heartbreak that is unrelieved. I can not be comforted for the loss of birds and beautiful living things that have become rare. Birdsong was the music of my childhood and the woods and fields were life.

I saw info that showed how these options are not a good exchange for standard energy sources. Those panels are toxic and will fill land fills.God Bless your fight.

Such a beautiful region! (alas hidden under those horrible solar panels). I do hope you'll win that battle, Mr Nettles! 🏞🍀🍀
And John Nettles is my favorite human being!
This is so true worldwide! Here in Michigan , USA, we have lots of rain and snow and get as cold as -30F in the winter near Detroit. Not suitable weather. And they put the solar panels on crop land, not marginal land. So the panels don’t produce electricity every day. There is not even the benefit of producing the panels in our country, but the panels come from China.
I agree with you. Solar panels should go on factory roofs, house roofs, and the electricity produced should be available to the homeowners, factories, instead of the electric companies only.

The destruction of land for going🤑 "Green" 🤑 makes no sense. It's absolutely disgusting. 😥 This is my ancestor's land how dare they destroy it for money. I can't wait to leave this horrible world.

John Nettles!! A must watch!! 😂
Love his voice - very calming
Really sad to see these enormous solar farms utilizing precious land that is beautiful, home to wildlife, and next to farms and homes. Biodiversity is sacrificed in the name of industry. Best of luck to you in stopping developers from ruining your countryside. Jenny, Seattle, WA, USA
Here in the states when there are huge unpopular projects like this , by the time they call for public input , they’ve already made up their minds to go ahead with the project. They have meetings to have the people urging them not to go ahead , the bureaucrats up front will pretend to listen , picking their noses , watch their phones ect. knowing they’ve already got a done deal! Money always talks louder than constituents.

As a woman who has grown up in the city of Elizabeth, NJ, with the Bayway Refinery perhaps within 2 miles of where I lived, I find that "Big Money" which finances the campaigns of our bureaucrats, interweaves them in support of these Mega Corporations. It will be a continuing struggle between these huge corporations and the little individual. In the meantime all life on this planet is struggling on this planet due to the effects of Climate Change.
Good for you John Nettles. I always new you were a good guy!
100% agree.
I am all for green energy.
We need to be smart about where we put solar farms.

We cannot put them anywhere. Nimbies stop development. Grid will not build connections. We're screwed.
My favorite series on TV is Midsomer murders,,,👍John Nettles hello From Croatia, Europa, 👍💐🙂
All the old wifey's used to make sure they didn't miss Bergerac on TV. Best bottle of whisky, jaffa cakes and cigarettes 🚬 out. Ducks up the wall all spik and span👜🦽🫖☕🍰🦆🦆🦆Thank-you John Nettles 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤔
Bergerac was 40 yesterday🎂🎊🎬
Sounds a brilliant evening your wife had watching John Nettles 😍🍷🍸
May the. Lord give y'all. Unlimited. Favor. And. Overcoming. Strength. !!!! .
Dear Mr John Nettles, I am a fan from New York City. We found Midsomer Murders and tonight we watched the episode in which you gave notice of retirement at your birthday party. I cried! I was rather shocked at how attached I had become to your character. We throughly enjoyed the episodes since discovering them. I hope you will read my message. If you do please let me know. I so admire you and your program and the towns and characters in the show. I wish I could meet you. A sincere fan Mrs. Suzanne HEMMINGER from Queens, New York.
Hello Mr. Barnaby, Sir, greetings from Germany and good luck !!

i totally agree with John nettles and the people that live in that area it is happening here in the United states to our farmlands as well i can't believe this is happening if something's not broke you don't fix it destroying mother nature where do they think we're going to get our vegetables and fruits from
Hope you are able to keep the country and peacful scenery in Plyworthy. God bless.
CPRE
Wishing you the best of luck, it’s a sad situation for land owners. Such a shame to ruin one of the world’s most beautiful country side, plus the history of the land. Also ruining property value for the farmers. Please keep an update.
Surely John will bring awareness to public for support. Midsummer Murders is a favorite of mine, seen them all more than once.

I am not even there but I feel sad for what the developer are trying to do, please leave the farmland to the farmers alone and not ruin the beauty of the surroundings. Go to the commercial sites and make roof and garage parking with those solar panels.

I love this man he is a great actor and a gorgeous man ❤🙋♀️
Its happening in our neck of the woods in Southern Illinois, little Egypt tucked between the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. We are battling to stop the destruction of good farmland with solar farms that are planted with tons of concrete. NO FARMS NO FOOD.
Food production in the US is so massive that we have tons of it for export. The price of the food is then so low that some small farmers cannot make a living. By decreasing supply using less land will increase the price and create a situation where the government need not supply subsidies to farmers to not produce and the small farmer can avoid selling the land to big agra businesses It is a win-win in the end for some of that unused farmland to be devoted to solar energy production. And I think it may also be true for England as well.
It beggars belief, if you think about all our urban friends that have no option but to work in the cities, their only chance of escaping to the country for a holiday to enjoy the fresh air and views go cycling take that away and where do these people go for a break from their everyday concrete filled lives.
TRUE
💯..
Good one
Mr John Nettles👏👍🌟
Midsomer murders
Oh,a BITCOIN Farm.Money is more as Nature. I like Barnaby Mr. John Nettles,God pless you !!!Salute from Lago Maggiore!
I hope Mr. Nettle’s campaign worked. What an amazing place to grow up. I’m afraid the truth of the matter is that farmers are no longer able to earn a living wage, and the younger generation doesn’t want to farm. We have fewer and fewer family owned farms in the US. The Agra. Companies seem to be buying every bit of land they can. I love watching Midsomer Murder reruns!
Sadly many very wealthy people are buying up farm land around the world, it makes me wonder their intent?
Miss ya. Mr. Barnaby. Lol. Good. Work. Representing. The subject. At hand. Don't give up !!
My grandparents - William and Clara Lilian (Glasson) Pollard grew up in Cornwall and her mother was Clara Glasson. Grandma had a brother - who never left Cornwall - James. Around 1919, Willie and "Lilian" - along with their 5-year old daughter (my mother), Lilian "Hazel", immigrated to the USA, settling in Michigan. By the way, I've really enjoyed your acting in the Midsomer Murders series!

Oh my God I really hope that will NOT happen, what a terrible thing to do that to such a lovely countryside.
My prayers are with you John in this, hope it will newer happen !💖💓💗
Wife and i watch all the midsommer shows-yours the best
If I was ever famous enough to have an autobiography written, I’d want John Nettles to voice the audio version. A gentleman!
And to think how much TDC objected to 1 wind turbine 18 years ago!! And now they're happy to cover acres and acres with metal!!
Good luck. I live in New England and I see them popping up. They are unsightly and really how much electricity does it produce. Same with wind mills. Nuclear is the way to go just build them responsibly and safely.
I pray for the success of your fight.

On a more cheery note, John Nettles, I've been binge watching Midsomer Murders, Bergerac, and now, Vera. I've been binge reading the comments, too. People act like they are being forced to watch these shows! I spend my money supporting Durrell on Jersey Island. Been there three times to see what they are doing with my money.
Please keep up the good work John!
Nuostabus aktorius manau ir gyvenime geras žmogus.
Beautiful voice,
I read your book, Mr. Nettles. Brillant..
Tell it like it is, John! BTW, I’m still enjoying Midsomer! Thanks.
Is there no zoning there? Time to change how decisions are made.
about time someone(john nettles) with COMMON SENSE. Wake up world - we are destroying it FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOW
That is grosse!!!!! Don't let it get ruined!!!!

Good luck Mr Nettles.I agree with you. I used tolive in Devon and find it so sad when these wretched people try to impose their stupid theories. Just keep quiet for a while and look around you and also suggest thinking would help

As a trained ecologist I can appreciate the objections to this . Funnily enough, I think John Nettles USED to live near Stratford upon Avon as I do, and there is a similar ‘ solar farm ‘ on pasture land near here, though on a smaller scale to the Devon one.
Sadly one of the objections seemed to be about the weather and rain with the comment ‘ it should be sited further south ‘. Where then exactly? - Devon is as far south as you can get in the UK ! But the despoliation of the landscape in an area of high tourism and more to the point the toxicity of the products making up the solar panels are totally valid as objections.
The bottom line is, we should ALL use less electricity, and as the old cliche says ‘ Live simply that others may simply live ‘.
I hope you win your battle. I live in the U.S. and we are going to be facing this same fight.
Donated. Greetings from a German in Canada 🫂. Good luck
I'm on my third viewing of the entire 21 season series of Midsomer Murders. That said, I'm delighted to see John Nettles doing his part, not as the fictional Chief Detective Inspector, but as an advocate to block, if at all possible, the installation of ever more inefficient solar panels on Devon's countryside. The series, which always took pains to portray the land and villages at their most beautiful was, and remains, a good part of its charm. To damage and degrade such land, for the sake of no real long term energy benefit, not to mention solars renowned lack of reliability, borders on the criminal. Best of luck in your efforts to stop it expansion.
Great Fan from *INSPECTOR BARNABY * in Cologne ,Germany😍
By the Way,you are right JOHN.WE ARE ALSO FIGHTING AGAINST THESE IDIOTS.HOPE THAT THESE SATANIC SYSTEM, WILL GO DOWN IN THE NEXT MONTHS👹👹
Solar Panels should be put on the roof of Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, etc so the Queen does her bit. Solar Farms should be designed to look like Ponds and Lakes - its not Rocket Science.
The queen keeps the palaces warm by burning coal on open fires . Open fires should be banned not PV.
It would be nice if she could give me a free Staycation at Buckingham Palace and she serves me Posh Nosh and a bottle of Champagne.
They should put these in ugly parts of the U.K., parts that have long been ruined. Put them on the tops of flat roof tower blocks in London, put them in city parks as its cities that use the most energy, put them in airport fields.
I grew up and lived in Devon until 1999 when I moved to Canada and now live in Austria. Devon is a very special landscape who’s major industry is tourism, people trying to reconnect with natural beauty, put these things in and that natural beauty is gone and with it Devon’s largest industry, after all, who wants to drive around fields of black glass!

Tell the land owners to stop selling . Or form an investment group and buy the land yourselves . I like John Nettles. From Arizona usa .

As we attempt to change to clean energy, we must not cut our noses off to spite our face. Good, clean energy, but at 8 billion & counting, we will need to focus 80 percent of our attention to food: seeding; harvesting, preping, making other foods, transport of food, etc. Use deserts for solar farms like here in Nevada (home of Las Vegas) USA but 80 percent of our state can't be farmed, its desert basically, so lets get the farms where they do the most good & leave good food producing soil intact.
Heather Darwin has the REAL insight into the situation.
Ned Ludd would be proud of you for continuing his work.
ABSOLUTELY INSANE! I live in Oregon USA and our weather is identical to Devon. We call "rain" Oregon sunshine. This installation will destroy the very soul of the UK visually. Shame on these solar companies.
Don’t shoot the messenger. The solar companies are not at fault. It’s the folks who approved these “ farms” you need to call to task. I don’t know who approved solar panels to be built over large areas of land, but it’s probably time to go after your politicians. We had solar panels on our roof in California. We charged 2 electric cars, ran air conditioning, and normal household use. Our electric bill was very low. We now live in WA state. Climate here is much like England. We were told solar panels wouldn’t be cost effective. I certainly wouldn’t want my garden or farm to be covered with panels!
Finally a decent celebrity speaking out about the hypocrisy and destructiveness of the Green movement!
I agree with you John ...these solars panels are a pollution .
God bless
The answer is to reduce our consumption, not industrialise more !
That is the stuff nightmares are made of!
The pluses and minuses of alternative energies must be closely examined. If not, more harm than good will be done.
MSM not the same without you! Sorry you are dealing with this issue. Stay strong Pyworthy.
