Wilfred Emmanuel Jones - is the millionaire Black Farmer. If you can get past his dated plumb-like Lord-of-the-manor accent, Jamaican born Wilfred Emmanuel The Black Farmer

Jones could be considered inspirational - well sort of. He arrived in Britain aged four, left school with no qualifications and did a short spell in the army. Trevor Phillips once turned him down for a job as a researcher but to his credit he persevered against the odds to establish a career at the BBC as a producer. He moved to the Devon countryside in the late 90s, where locals referred to him as the 'Black Farmer' a reference he turned on its head to become an exclusive brand of produce including sausages and relishes.
He is thought to be moving into politics with the Tory party as the candidate for the new parliamentary seat of Chippenham in Wiltshire.
