Janice is 66-years-old and Mike is 78-years-old, with Baker, 43, initially returning to the family farm to help his parents.
After leaving The One Show, Baker received the upsetting news that Janice had an accident while tending to the sheep.
Janice had broken her leg, and with Mike now the only one to work on the farm, Baker and his family made the decision to live there and help them out.
This was all catalogued in the first season of the programme, with the show proving to be immensely popular immediately – gaining over one million views for its pilot episode.

Our Farm in the Dales: Returning for a Christmas special (Image: Channel 4)
Baker has loved the experience of returning to his beloved home, despite the less fortunate reason for it.
Writing iniNews,Baker explained: "It was one of those scenarios when you automatically go into rescue mode, so we downed tools, went up there and from day one, it was all hands on deck.
"We live a life that’s up and down the whole time anyway – I am a northerner through and through and the Durham Dales, where I grew up, are like a magnet; I can’t stay away."
Baker’s parents have lived on the farm for decades and still work hard to ensure it will be there for decades to come.
