Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm sensei Kaleb Cooper has visions of living it up in Australia.
The 26-year-old from Chipping Norton is now a bonafide TV personality after starring in all four seasons of Amazon Prime Video docuseries Clarkson's Farm, which launched on the streaming service back in 2021.
But in an interview with The Times last year, he admitted to wanting to move on with his life when he eventually builds a healthy money pot.
Despite having never been abroad, Cooper began by confessing that the land Down Under is 'calling' him, before adding: "It’s pretty far flung, isn’t it? Oh, f**k that

He then confessed he's even toying with the notion of partying in Ibiza.
"I'll make all the money now, hopefully have a farm, then chill out, go partying and be in Ibiza," he shared. "Though I can't think of anything worse than being in a nightclub."
Meanwhile, Clarkson himself revealed over the weekend (via his Sunday Times column) that his right-hand farmer once fled the land after they disagreed on something.
"Ask him to put something away and he acts like a seven-year-old who's been told to tidy his room," claimed the former Top Gear presenter.
"He’s not interested in tidiness because it takes time and time is money."
Clarkson highlighted the fact that farmers refuse to be beholden to the same presentable standards as everyone else; basically, they really couldn't care about muck.
"When I asked him to help me tidy the farmyard, he immediately got into his ugly pick-up truck and went for a weekend mini break with his family in the Yorkshire Dales."
Since being thrown into the celebrity world, it's been revealed that Cooper is now closing in on millionaire status.
He's penned three books to date - The World According to Kaleb, Britain According to Kaleb: The Wonderful World of Country Life, and Life According to Kaleb - and even toured the UK with his stage show The World According to Kaleb: On Tour, which was later turned into an Amazon comedy special.
His full accounts that were published almost a year ago confirmed Cooper had £908,860 in cash and assets from his media work. That's up more than four-fold since 2023, where takings sat at £242,000.
Meanwhile, his other company Kaleb Cooper Holdings Ltd boasted over £46,000 in taking, whilst his Kaleb Cooper Contracting Ltd business housed £32,000.
It'll be interesting to see where his finances are next month, which would mark 12 months since the last accounting statements.
