There aren't many born and bred city girls who will voluntarily move to the country to work on a farm – but five Kiwi women did for City Girls (TV2, 7.30pm Wednesday, February 11). Ranging in age from 20-43, these five Auckland women relocate to a small rural township for six weeks to be farm hands. They will have to shovel manure, dock lambs and live together in a three-bedroom house, getting up at 5am. Sound like fun yet?
