The third season of Clarkson's Farm has arrived, but devastating news concerning loveable farmhand Gerald is coming the way of Jeremy and Kaleb Cooper in the second episode.

With the third season going live on Amazon Prime Video today (3 May), millions will be tuning in to watch what Jezza, Kaleb Cooper and their gang of loyal people do as they battle sky-high inflation, Diddly Squat Farm restaurant being forced to close, and ways to diversify farm income.

Clarkson, who has spoken out on the possibility of selling the farm, took over the farm in 2019 after the retirement of then farmer.

The farm wasn't new to him, though, with Clarkson actually owning it for 11 years before rolling up his sleeves and taking it on himself.

He bought the 1,000-acre farm back in 2008, with it now valued at a cool £13 million - a big different to the amount of money he's actually made from farming the land.

The second episode of the new series brings everyone down to Earth with a sobering reality check.

After saying in the first episode that Gerald had been absent from the farm due to illness, and as such the walls on the farm were looking worse for wear, the exact reason behind his illness was made public.

"Gerald had been diagnosed with prostate cancer," Clarkson narrates as the second episode begins.

"Something that Kaleb and I had discussed while trying to do what our absent friend normally does."

Footage then cuts to the pair attempting to put together a dry stone wall that Gerald would usually repair as part of his day to day activities on Diddly Squat Farm.

"It's bloody complicated," Clarkson says during what very much looks like his first attempt at dry stone walling.

He then turns the conversation on what he has been doing to help Gerald since his diagnosis.

Clarkson says: "I've been phoning around, doctors and things I know, and he's odds are really good. But it's scaring him to death."

Kaleb says: "He doesn't understand that."

Responding, Jezza says: "I know he doesn't understand and he's bewildered because, for obvious reasons someone said 'look I'm sorry it's cancer' and that's all he heard.

"He's desperately upset. Terrified, the poor man."

Cooper: "He's a strong man isn't he? He's worked the land his whole life, he's not unfit is he? He could do a days work."

Clarkson: "He's 74, he's amazing."

The first four episodes of Clarkson's Farm season three can now be watched on Prime Video. The second half of the season will be released next Friday (10 May).
