Adam Macy

Played by Andrew Wincott

Adam Macy
  • Born: 22 Jun 1967
  • Status: Civil Partnership with Ian Craig
  • Occupation: Farmer

Forthright, principled and mentally and physically tough from childhood, Adam nevertheless has a sensitive side. This can be apparent in his dealings with half-sister Debbie Aldridge, who he often fears is out to undermine him over the farm's business.

After graduating in agricultural economics and working on development projects in Africa he returned to Ambridge in 2003.

Step-father Brian Aldridge found it hard to adjust to the news that Adam was gay. Despite Adam's innovations at Home Farm, Brian still favours Debbie's ideas for the farm's future.
