Jeremy Clarkson reveals how often he's at Diddly Squat Farm as fans hope to bump in to him
Clarkson's Farm is done and dusted for a third season, but with millions tuning in and the summer months ahead of us, people can't stop flocking to the Diddly Squat Farm to see the Amazon Prime Video sensation with their own eyes.
And Jeremy Clarkson himself has clarified how likely you are to catch a glimpse of him at the 1,000-acre farm's famous yet tiny farm shop.
Fans of the documentary series have often wondered how likely it is to see Jezza at the Cotswolds farm alongside his partner Lisa Hogan who runs the farm shop on a daily basis, taking to Reddit to ask those who have visited if they've ever come across the couple.

The booming popularity of the show, which gets even crazier every time the new season airs, sees countless people flock to the farm site to try and get a glimpse of those who appear on the TV show.
People are also desperate to sample the products on offer, which includes Clarkson's very own Hawkstone lager and cider as well as picking up local produce in the farm shop that Jeremy's team has produced. And yes, that includes the pigs.
On Facebook, numerous videos have been posted in fan groups showing the queue for the farm shop snaking across the brand new car park that Jezza and his team build in season three after a huge planning permission win against West Oxfordshire District Council.
One fan of the show responded to Jeremy on X asking about if he actually spends his days at the farm.
"My daughters are 13 and six years old, they want to meet you Jeremy. We live in Kent, three hours from your farm," she posted.
"You weren’t there when we went. Please tell us when you will be there so that we can meet you once."
Responding, Jeremy was very honest. And it was good news. Kind of.
Clarkson wrote: "I'm always here these days.
"Just not necessarily at the shop."
It makes sense, really, given that his job is running the entire farm, which is a massive 1,000 acres.
And with roughly 500 acres of the land being arable (fancy word for growing crops), a good chunk of his time will be working that with the likes of Kaleb Cooper.
Over on Reddit, one user said: "I've been three times (Saturdays x2 and Sunday x1) and never seen them, or Kaleb. I did see Gerald buying a paper in the Chadlington shop / cafe about three weeks ago."
But it's clearly hit and miss, and something you shouldn't bank on, with another writing: " didn't see Jeremy, Lisa, Kaleb, or Gerald at all during my one and only visit.
"But I also wasn't really expecting to see anybody. I was just happy to visit."
On the massive queues that Diddly Squat Farm faces, one person posted to Clarkson: "The queues at Diddly Squat are ridiculous! They are worse than those at Chessington or Thorpe Park, and this is just for food and drink!
"I think you need to expand your shop to allow a larger customer flow, although that would require more planning permission."
Responding, Clarkson wrote: "We have plans to solve this. And are working flat out on them."
So, watch this space. And bring on season four.
