He split his prize money between a children's charity, a children's hospital and a centre for those with disabilities. Kevin Sharkey had a serious disagreement with the other "farmhands", as they were called, and subsequently refused to appear with them on The Late Late Show after the series, instead appearing on rival chat show The Dunphy Show. ==Legacy==
Legacy
Celebrity Farm left a pitiful legacy for Irish television viewers. One witness reported that it had taken until 2012 "to finally stop shuddering at the memory of such sitting room atrocities as RTÉ's Celebrity Farm". ==References==
