They have even made a television series:

1480357 2021-09-08 21:34:00 Yes, well he IS old now....has to something to earn more millions...and acting the idiot on a piece of land seems to be his new thing.

I enjoyed some of his colleagues docos.....James May's Toy Stories, "BBC Earth Lab";
Men & Motors. Should I Worry About...? Time Commanders , and one of the best Richard Hammond's Invisible Worlds,

The first series topped the Amazon most watched series

It was widely acclaimed as very informative of what goes on with Clarkson added for laughs

One of the people involved was Caleb a contractor which now has a cult following

Recommended watching

There was a brief discussion about farming becoming unsustainable in the UK .

Especially if he doesn't take it seriously.

Farming here is not profitable either the best you can do is plant up your farm in pines and enter it into the ETS (emissions trading scheme) which is currently paying out around $2000 / ha far higher than you can ever make farming.

On the contrary, even my wife who couldn't stand him in Top Gear, thought Clarkson's Farm was brilliant and we are both looking forward to Season 2.

Much the same, she couldn't stand Top Gear but loved Clarkson's Farm.

It is still Clarkson being a dingo at times as a laugh, be there is a lot of interesting and more informative parts to it also.
