Clarkson’s Farm, the quintessentially British is returning to the small screen sooner than you may think, with Amazon Prime Video confirming when all eight episodes will debut.
Can you believe it’s been almost half a decade since former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson introduced us to Diddly Squat Farm?
Since then, fans have fallen in love with Kaleb Cooper, Clarkson’s girlfriend, Lisa Hogan, Pepper the cow, the heartbreakingly euthanised pig, Baroness, and dogs Sansa and Arya, named after Game of Thrones characters.
Prime Video announced in November 2024 that Clarkson’s Farm season five had been ordered—and this summer we’re finally set to be reacquainted with the Chipping Norton gang.

“Clarkson’s Farm is back, and amidst a government budget that sends the UK farming community into uproar, Jeremy decides some big changes are needed to make the farm run more smoothly,” an official synopsis read.
“But while the farm tries to go high-tech - resulting in Kaleb’s first ever trip abroad - even bigger developments are heading for Diddly Squat that are going to prove much more of a challenge.”
First look images show Clarkson, 66, corralling a flock of geese at Diddly Squat with what appears to be a blanket sagging over one shoulder.
Another featured the broadcaster standing in a stream wearing farm gear with his hands on his hips.
He is joined by Cooper, 27, and Dublin-born Hogan, 51, who has been in a relationship with Clarkson since 2017.
Excitingly, the first four episodes of Clarkson’s Farm series five are set to drop exclusively on Prime Video on 3 June.
On 10 June, episodes five and six will be available to stream.
Fans will have to wait until 17 June to watch the penultimate episode and the final outing of season five.
Last year, Clarkson made headlines when he revealed he was ‘seriously’ contemplating banning ‘people with food intolerances’ from his pub, The Farmer’s Dog.
The establishment, situated in Burford, prides itself on its menu made ‘entirely with ingredients produced on Britishfarms’, meaning it doesn’t serve coffee and will not allow you to bring in birthday cakes unless they were produced wholly in the country.
Writing in his column for The Sun about banning people with food intolerances, he said: “I know it would be commercial suicide but they are just so annoying.”
This was after a supposed gluten-intolerant customer claimed that she had been served a beer instead of cider, which consequently made her ill.
She reportedly expected the pub to reimburse her with some form of compensation.
Clarkson learned after checking the Cotswold pub’s CCTV system that she had not been drinking beer at all, despite her claims.
“Food intolerance enthusiasts will claim after they leave that you poisoned them and that you must now give them 50,000 of your pounds,” he exclaimed.
Running the Asthall village establishment - which opened in August 2024 - has more downsides, including people who take drinking too far and take it out on the bathroom, as per the landlord.
“The the thing that baffles me most of all is, forgive me for this, but people go to the lavatory, sit on it, and then somehow miss the bowl, and I cannot understand how they're doing it,” he lamented.
“But it's just I think 'how have you got it all over the floor and up the walls?' There's a lot to infuriate me.”
