Well, Clarkson’s Farm fans rejoice, a new series of the popular show is landing on Wednesday (3 June).
Jeremy Clarkson is back on screens with Kaleb Cooper as the boss is stricken down by a major health scare and the farm is put under emergency procedures.
Bad luck strikes ‘from every direction’, with a major disaster as a bovine tuberculosis (bTB) outbreak occurs leaving them ‘absolutely devastated’.
Fans will also see Clarkson take to London with the farming community marching in protest at the government budget as well as Kaleb taking his first ever trip abroad.

But the thing that Jezza reckons would surprise Clarkson’s Farm viewers the most to learn is an ‘infuriating’ issue caused by his farming skills – or lack of, should I say.
“After six or seven years of farming, I still can’t attach anything to the back of a tractor,” Clarkson confessed. “I can’t remember the sequence of buttons, I can’t line anything up properly and I don’t know where the hydraulic hoses go.”
The former Top Gear host admitted that it ‘disappoints’ him that he still has to get Kaleb to help him with it.
“Anything practical, I can’t do,” he continued. “It’s annoying in everyday life, but on a farm it’s absolutely infuriating.”
Clarkson says he likes to think the popular show has ‘altered the way people think about farming’ as he reckons more people appreciate ‘just how difficult it is and just how badly paid it is’.
Kaleb also chipped in to say that as the show gets into its fifth season, he reckons the pair have a ‘whole new dynamic now’ in terms of them working together.
“I mean, he’s got a much bigger understanding of the whole job, so, you know, he’s getting there,” the young farmer added.

The first four episodes will be available on Prime Video from Wednesday, with the rest dropping throughout June.
The first episode will see Clarkson looking for ways to make life at Diddly Squat ‘less stressful’ and this includes his new ‘EasyCare’ sheep.
“In the first series, I was with the sheep constantly during lambing, terrified there’d be a breech birth or something awful,” he said. “EasyCare sheep just get on with it.”
Kaleb was ‘absolutely furious’ at first with this decision as he said the boss had got it all wrong.
“They’re hard to round up and incredibly strong,” Clarkson continued. “But then I noticed the other day that he’s quietly bought 30 for himself.”
Episodes 1-4 of Clarkson’s Farm series five release on Prime Video on 3 June.
