Amanda Owen's daughter left her mum and an audience laughing after giving a brutally honest response when she was asked whether the Yorkshire Shepherdess is a good parent.
Clemmie Owen joined her mum on stage during a special Our Farm Next Door event in Northallerton, where the pair discussed life in front of the cameras and their family's experiences making the television series.
Amanda and former husband Clive's nine children first became familiar faces to millions through Our Yorkshire Farm, which documented their unconventional upbringing at remote Ravenseat Farm in Swaledale.
But it was Clemmie who briefly turned interviewer Jeremy Buxton's attention away from television and towards Amanda's abilities as a mum.

During Our Farm Next Door: A Behind-the-Scenes Celebration at Everyman Northallerton on Wednesday, September 30, Clemmie was asked whether Amanda was a good parent.
Her initial verdict prompted laughter around the room.
Clemmie replied: "She's not like the best mum."
The youngster did not leave it there, however, and quickly offered a much warmer assessment of her mum's parenting style.
She continued: "She's not demanding; she lets us get on with it, and I think she's really good."
The response prompted Amanda herself to laugh.
The humorous exchange offered another glimpse into the relationship Amanda has with children who have spent much of their lives growing up in front of television cameras.
Amanda and Clive have nine children, Raven, Reuben, Miles, Edith, Violet, Sidney, Annas, Clemmie and Nancy.
Viewers first got to know the family through Our Yorkshire Farm, with the children regularly shown helping their parents with animals and jobs around Ravenseat.
Amanda also spoke elsewhere during the Northallerton event about how proud she is of the different directions her children are now taking.
She said some want to attend university, while others are building companies, running businesses or pursuing farming.
That independence is also reflected in Clemmie's description of her mum as someone who "lets us get on with it".
The changing lives of the children will again form part of the fourth series of Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids.
Wise Owl Films, which produces the programme, has revealed the youngsters will continue to "forge their own" paths.

Nancy still dreams of becoming both a ballerina and a farmer, Edith is preparing for key exams and taking responsibility for Ravenseat's cream tea van, while Sid faces his tractor test.
Clemmie and some of her sisters will also be involved as Amanda's long-running restoration of Anty John's moves closer to creating a family home.
But at the Northallerton event, Clemmie managed to temporarily turn the attention back onto Amanda herself.
And despite beginning her assessment with "she's not like the best mum", her final verdict was considerably more complimentary.
"I think she's really good," she said.
