Thanks to another thread, I have half ripped off someone else's idea but I think that EE should bulk up the fowlers a bit...

They could introduce Farmer Ben Fowler

He is a young lad, late teens/early twenties and has been brought up in the Welsh mountains with only sheep for company.

His parents were Arthur's estranged brother and his wife.

Ian could find a letter behind the fireplace from uncle Edward Fowlers and discover the family secret. Martin and Stacey get involved and use Stacey's long lost family member finding experience to good use.

The offer of the big smoke is just too good to pass up and along comes Farmer Ben.

Storyline potential with him getting to make friends and have relationships with real people and not sheep.

His accent will be Welsh with a hint of cockney

They could do a special promo, with the song being "Bad to the bone" but adding a baaaaah to the baaaaaaaaaaahd.

Well my character was from Scotland and was elderly, but apart from that it is just the same. His actual name is Gordon and he has a pet sheep. 😉

I think it's more likely that Mo will come back with her Farmer Giles.

Imagine if Jane started talking to him in her Scottish accent and it was revealed she had been a Mockney all this time

Ben isn't iconic enough to be a Fowler. He'd be a Hubbard
