My Story: Georgie – Cow Queen

Get ready for a heart-warming journey into the world of young farming dreams with My Story: Georgie – Cow Queen on RTÉ2 this Wednesday. This documentary follows 10-year-old Georgie from County Cork as she prepares to take her beloved show calf, Khaleesi, all the way to the National YMA Finals – the biggest stage in Irish calf showing. 

At just 10 years old, Georgie is already a seasoned hand on her family’s busy dairy farm. From early morning milking to mucking out the sheds, farm life is second nature to her. With the loyal support of her best friend Aisling, she sets her sights on proving that she and Khaleesi have what it takes to stand out in the competitive world of cattle showing. 

Farming may be in her blood, but the road to the Finals is far from easy. From the challenges of training and grooming Khaleesi to the pressure of competition day, Georgie must dig deep and show resilience beyond her years. Along the way, we see the unique bond that can exist between a girl and her calf – a mix of care, discipline, and love. 

This uplifting documentary is not only a celebration of rural life but also a story of friendship, determination, and the courage to dream big, no matter your age. 

My Story: Georgie – Cow Queen airs Wednesday 3rd of September at 4pm on RTÉ2.
