The Chilliman TV Show
The Chilliman TV Show was born! I spent some time with the great team from Lancashire One. They came to film at the Little Green Men Chilli Farm or the BIG Glasshouse as it was known. They graciously produced a video for me. They liked my presentation. We chatted. We set about filming in different locations from small greenhouses to large garden centres and my TV show was born!
We shot episodes which encompassed a blend of chillies, gardening and product placement – and the name of the series?
…it was amusingly entitled:
“I’ve Lost The Plot!”
We also filmed at Southport Flower Show. We covered the whole event. Interviewing the stars and exhibitors.

Chilli Growing—How did I end up here?
It’s not quite Jack and The Chilli Growing Beanstalk, but from a handful of chilli seeds and dirt I grew something amazing!
“Indulge me as I reminisce about those halcyon days of chilli growing. I have put together a digital scrapbook of my unusual life story as the ChilliMan from Little Green Men. It was EPIC FUN! On the ride of my life! Doing something that I LOVED!…
I hope you enjoy it!” 😊
Q. How far can you get on a handful of chilli seeds ‘n’ dirt?
