Farrelly on Classic Hits 4FM.
In his spare time, he rides motorbikes.

The family of impulsive Alba (Anna Castillo) has fallen on hard
times, and they’ve been forced into abandoning olive oil production
for poultry farming. On the personal side too, family tensions are
running high: Alba’s favourite childhood spot - a magnificently
gnarled olive tree - has long been sold, the money going to set up a
restaurant that has now gone bust, a victim of the financial crisis.
The tree has been sold off to a German energy company that is
now using is as their logo: Alba decides to get it back and in doing so looks to restore her family’s pride.
