Jeremy Clarkson: How I learned to love life as a farmer 

The farmers here in Devon are exceedingly grateful to Clarkson. As one said to me “You’ll learn more about the countryside in two episodes of Clarkson’s Farm than 30 years of the BBC’s Countryfile”.

My wife and I are farmers in America and just got done watching both seasons. I was nearly in tears because I would have never thought a show with a celebrity of this caliber would ever show all the work and pain and stress and regulatory burdens we all deal with as farmers. It's nice to finally get some recognition for everything we go through to provide the best food we can. Loved every episode!!!

As a lifelong fan of clarkson, Hammond and May i have to say "Clarksons Farm" is the happiest Jeremy has looked in years. It's a fantastic show.

As a 60 year old farmer in Canada I must applaud Jeremy for the show.

Jeremy Clarkson is a gem. As a non-Brit watching from Denmark I declare him unfairly maligned by a horde of dimwits too obnoxious and ideologically stuck-up to recognise what a treasure he is. I really hope they keep making the farm show.

Clarkson did more for British farming in one series than BBC’s Countryfile did in 35 years.

With one series of his farming program Jeremy did far far more for British farmers than every sitting MP has done for them in the last 60 years by far

The government and councils should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves for placing so many barriers in the way of our farmers, these people should be helped and encouraged to farm the land for the good of all of us.

The BBC knew it needed Clarkson - he reached audiences that the rest of the BBC couldn’t and he made them a fair chunk of money each year from worldwide sales of Top Gear, which he turned into a phenomenon. When the history of TV is written Top Gear, helmed by Clarkson, will rightly stand alone as the last hurrah of terrestrial TV. Clarkson’s Farm is similarly brilliant. A show about farming that millions want to watch. It was the best thing on TV in the last year.

I love the stuff Jeremy Clarkson does because he is genuine, respectfully disrespectful, funny, very smart intellectually and in reality doesn’t give a tinker’s toss about authority… government, political correctness or woke muppet dictates. Brilliant!! 🏍️🎸🍺🍺🍺😎👍👍

I never in my life once thought a farming show would be interesting...but I actually really liked this show and really gave me a new perspective on farmers and just how hard their life is...respect

Now watched both seasons of the farm, apart from finding it absolutely entertaining and also informative its got to be Clarkson at his very best. What i did not realize was the absolute dire straights that our farming industry is in. My heart went out to the two lady farmers who are obviously in real trouble with their dairy and piggery, a life line selling their products at the farm shop and restaurant was offered by Diddly squat wich seemed sensible to the point of genius. Then along comes the local council, no vision, no intelligence and no frigging idea. Its about time that our government stopped acting like the preverbal ostrich and started sorting out the economics of businesses not only farms but all businesses before we have no farms or local high street. Well done Jeremy thanks for the wonderful entertainment your farm has given me and the mindboggling problems brought on by an inept council and the interfering red tape bods.

Clarkson is doing more for the environment than anyone who owns an electric car I’ll wager a magic card collection on it

Jeremy’s Farm show was absolutely brilliant. Jesse is correct in his assumption about the people he works with and how entertaining the dynamic would be. I’m so glad there will be a season 2. It’s also amazing insights into the struggles with farming. Better than any doc I’ve seen

Thank you Jeremy for highlighting the plight of Farmers and level of beauracrcy and hurdles they face 🚜 🐑

American here. I’ve loved clarkson and the other two since I stumbled upon bbc top gear years ago. Jeremy’s farming show is wonderful. He’s one of the few celebrities I’d be jazzed to meet and chat with.

I think Clarkson gets away with being rich and un-politically correct because he doesn’t virtue signal. There’s no hypocrisy

To really see the other side of Jeremy, I would recommend watching the following: The Greatest Briton, where he championed Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and the 2 programs he made about the Victoria Cross (the raid on St Nazaire and opperation Market Garden (a bridge too far)), this is where you get to see that he is not just a one trick pony. But away from motoring shows Clarksons Farm is probably his stand out moment.

The show is brilliant. Watched season 1 and 2 with my son and always brings us to laughter. Jeremy certainly knows what makes a good program. Love all the characters and Kaleb is an absolute star and has great patience.

Farmer from Western Canada here Binge watched both seasons in 2 days during a snowstorm. Could not turn it off. Awesome show.

Giles’ demeaning comments about Richard and May were unacceptable. The old Top Gear and the The Grand Tour would be nothing without the trio.

I've just finished watching the second series of Clarksons Farm and I've loved both series. This latest was hilarious in parts and I laughed out loud several times. The issues that Jeremy had in the second series with the Council were so frustrating I found myself feeling angry on his behalf. I do hope that after the series finished filming he actually took the Council to Court because in my opinion it was absolutely clear they were discriminating against him out of all the local farmers. They resented the fact that he was a media personality and petty jealousies surfaced. The series really did bring to light the nastiness and pettiness of those sitting on the council at that time. I sincerely hope they've been voted off in the interim. They didn't deserve their positions.

“It’s like hoovering water” …the guy’s so good with analogies

Stuck the farming show on one night about 11pm. Ended up staying up all night watching it back to back. Was absolute genius! 👏🏻 Good interview that too 👏🏻

I affirm that seeing "real propper people" on TV was awesome 😍 Caleb is indeed a gem and a great natural comedian 💎👌😂

As urbanites continue to blast the rural communities as backward and non-woke, Clarkson shows the importance and value the rural farm communities add to society and the challenges they face to bring food to our tables. And it’s hilarious along the way. Bravo Jeremy, Caleb, Gerald, and Charlie…

Jeremy Clarkson is the most based person I've ever seen on TV. No wonder the woke mob hates him.

He taught people about the reality of feeding thousands of people and the difficulties is poses.

True: Big difference between dropping $250k on luxury items vs $250k on a struggle to make a business.

It’s been the best thing I’ve watched on the telly in years - I’m from Doncaster same as Jeremy and my mam worked for his mam.

I’ve been a Top Gear and Grand Tour viewer from day one, and oddly enough, I think I liked Clarkson Farm more than both of them.

Gotta love Clarkson, man just says it how it is 😂

Jeremy is a natural entertainer. His unorthodox approach makes this show so watchable. Far more entertaining than either of the car shows tbh

Being honest is what makes Jeremy likeable. I think we instinctively respect honesty even if it is disagreeable to us .But we must also be honest with ourselves

I don't care what his net worth is... He's hilarious, and he's genuine in a world where we're being forced to be false. He's the one constant!

Clarkson farm is the first reality show i watch....and i loved it..just like Jeremy said,,i loved the people's in Clarkson farm,,their were all genuine people's...not celebrities or famous people...

A joy to watch ...The Best Programme for a VERY long time ..Thankyou Jeremy and team .. Cant wait for the 2nd series 😍

And I love how hes trying to diversify and the shop helps other local farmers

Jeremy IS THE ONLY ONE IN TELEVISION that truly understand how environment works and how we can make a difference

God bless you for many many yers to come Jeremy

Jeremy was actually sounding like a farmer , Who would ever have put money on that

What a normal genius of a man love his attitude to everything keep it up jeremy

Love Clarkson’s farm series. Much better than the car show, which isn’t even about cars anymore…

I watched all the farm series and yes I learnt quiet a lot about farming well done to all who worked on that show

National treasure is Jeremy , Sir Jeremy Clarkson should be . Great chap too use see often when lived Chippy , always a smile n polite wave or hi , says things as they are , and not scared try or say all aspects things, isn't that the essence of life . Bravo 🍻

Clarkson is the best presenter on tv IMHO. You can tell this is a radio program because the interviewer never stops waving his arms about (bloody annoying) which makes you jump when they come out of the screen at you.

I loved season 1 of Clarksons farm and so thrilled to see season 2. It’s funny, interesting and I have learned so much about the area and farming. Amazing show!

Hello Jeremy, you are a great story teller, in particular the history films, miss you! thanks for youre work

Bravo Jeremy!! I'm looking forward to season 3.

Jeremy is brilliant , he's highlighted many issues that farmers face, he's opened my eyes about farming and the struggles that they Go through, keep doing what you are doing it's great x

Seeing Jeremy being humble is refreshing

Jeremy, you rock, the world needs more Clarksons, keep on winding up the proffesionaly offended muppets

One of my favorite humans for my whole life, as an American thats watched him since I was about 12. Love what he is doing for awareness of farmers and their difficulties when they supply so much for us all

Awesome bro my grandfather was a cadet farming in chippingnorton during World War II and came to New Zealand at 17 years old I like your attitude can’t isn’t in your vocabulary ✌🏼😂

Well done Clarkson , the first celeb who was filmed without a bookshelf behind him ! He is real , non woke , non pc , not inclusive or diverse , not gay or trans or racist ! long may he broadcast !

Clarkson should be the English prime minister

Best broadcaster and presenter in my lifetime, the last of the non pc people..

I just finished this show. I became a fan of Jeremy and Koleb. Going to visit them soon

Clarksons farm has been a great insight into life on the farm by a man ,who in the past has been known for his car programs,it’s a very different side of Jeremy,what it’s is good entertainment by a man who is willing to have a go ,Great show .🌲🌲🌲🐝🐝🐝🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🌲🌲🌲🌲🐝🐝🐝. 🚜👍

They asked the farmer what he was going to do when he won the lottery I'll keep farming till it's gone

I really love Jeremy Clarkson, one of a few celebrities who’s opinion has value

Clarkson discovers the real world. He comes out of it better than I expected.

I think it would be a good idea. If we let the farmers farm and just buy their stuff at the end. I don't remember anyone dieing from winter barley.

I didn't like it when they just wrecked things on Top Gear, but here I am watching JC wreck things on his farm and I enjoy it. But the difference is it's not done intentionally and they fix it afterwards, often for the better. People should never get jealous of others spending their money, because every thing they buy is made by someone, sold by someone, delivered by someone and maintained by someone. If they leave it under the mattress it's just the housekeeper that has to sweep round it. Another Cotswold farming program shown on RU-vid is Harry's Farm, now Harry studied farming at university and so explains farming in an excellent way. He pulls apart articles on saving the planet and is even doing soil test that prove his best soil is pasture grazed by beef cattle. He is also looking into how many harvest years are left on his farm. It's an education to watch. PS: He also has a barn full of cars. Harry's Garage on RU-vid.

Hammond and May are just studio puppets? Bro. James may and Richard Hammond are national treasures.

We can forgive Jeremy because he's a real person, he earned what he has today. He's not some unrealistic poofter who wants to save the whales and make everyone who doesn't make several hundred thousand pounds or more per year struggle buying food while those other buggers live in their luxury cottages and eat their ice cream while telling us how they think we should live our lives.

Great man he’s doing very well

Money can't buy happiness, but a farm certainly can (even if it loses money)

Well done, Jeremy, on the yellowhammers!

I’m complete with Clarkson “When did we start listening to school girls?”

I am really glad he did the show. I have surprisingly learnt a lot about farming and the ridiculous costs involved in it. I don’t even know how the farmers do it considering it’s already back breaking work.

I loved the irrigation information. Wow. So fascinating

Great video but could have done with a bit less sycophancy from Coren. I am sure Hammond and May will be delighted to have been portrayed as sidekicks who have their jokes written for them by JC. Somewhat under values their enormous contributions to TG.

One of the many highlights of the show is seeing him "get it". Getting the whole thing. And, the perseverance of the systems you have to deal with.

Watched and really enjoyed the full series it gave me a great insight and respect for farmers.

What a loveable human.

Thank goodness that the BBC no longer monopolises what people in the UK have to watch. I think it is about time the BBC licence fee was scrapped. RU-vid has much better content - more relevant, more up to date. More diverse.

Great interview with clarkson looking more human with each moment.

Jeremy is brilliant

From Australia, best show I have seen in a long time.

Great show! I loved it. Funny and educational for this city gal!

I'm sure James and Richard appreciate being referred to as Jeremy's "studio puppets"

You are such an inspiration, amazing and you inspired us to create our RU-vid channel with how incredibly natural and real you are. You really are opening peoples eyes!!! We went through a really tough patch last year, we lost our farmland and ended up renting a really rundown patch of land. Its nothing like what you have but creating the videos is spurring us on and keeping us going. One day, you never know but we might be in a position to have a farm again. We can only live in hope.

Fantastic interview! I now like the farmer Jeremy… I did not like the car Jeremy. Toooo amazing. I find it surprising. Keep doing what you do Jeremy. Love farming and Jeremy for showcasing the challenges and hard life of farming. Wow.

Great show. Congrats on winning the NFU award. Well deserved.

Nobody talking about the elephant in the room?

Kaleb modern day fred dibnah

The reason Jeremy being wealthy doesn't bother anyone is because he makes no apologies for it. He's worked hard, earned his way, saved well and now he has money. Good for him. It's only really unpleasant to see when it's unearned, like rich kids or children of celebs.

Love your shows, like top gear and jeremy clarkson farm show, and you hammond and may made top gear great .

Well done Jeremy, you have done a wonderful job.keep up the good work.

Maybe the Brits need to start listening to Jeremy? He sounds like he's starting to see the light of getting away from what the Western modern societies have led the world into. The nonsense, self-involved, celebrity seeking lives we now all suffer from.

I see Jeremy and Giles..I click. I am a Canadian Grandmother - the furthest thing possible from a gear-head, but I enjoyed watching top gear and I love the Grand Tour, because of “the boys”. I’ve watched both Seasons of the goings on at Diddley Squat, and hated to see them end. Very informative, funny, and thought provoking. I love Jeremy’s irreverence and witty repartee with the local Council, and I really enjoy the insights from Charlie, and the local farmers that provide dairy, etc., to the Farm Shop. I could have wept for those poor farmers who lost half their herd to Bovine Tuberculosis. And Kaleb…I mean..seriously..he’s a 40 year old in a 22 year old body. Bloody brilliant, and he has no trouble telling Jeremy how it should be. Jeremy said EXACTLY what I was thinking about NOT producing food in the UK. Go back to 1940, and see how that worked out (better yet, watch the BBC Series: “The Wartime Farm” - it’s up on RU-vid.). Anyway…I do hope they are working on Season 3. We all need more of Clarkson’s Farm.

What a great video ! Cannot wait to check it out

Personally I think jezza would make a cracking prime minister and get this eng a land great like it used to be and get farming and have all British products which can be grown or reared here and sell the surplus to the world. But that's me

Jeremy, thank you for an amazing show, and please make sure you can keep making more seasons!

Interesting stuff. Enjoyed watching. 👍

Need Mike Rowe to visit Clarkson's farm

Love it, nail on head...

Love the elephant drawing you have on the wall‼️

I binge watched it yesterday and enjoyed it.
