Went to Diddly squat farm yesterday and really enjoyed it, despite the hour and a half queue, everyone was really chatty and made the time go quickly. Came out of the farm shop £103 lighter😱not to mention the £35 we spent on burgers 😱Just finished watching season 3 and sad I've finished it. Really enjoyed it.

Clarkson had a Top Gear moment with his Tractor comparisons. :ROFLMAO:

When he said he was going to test them with one test, I did assume he was gonna do a drag race. 😂😂

But he must be learning something. Because when he tried farming on Top Gear, he just resorted to sticking dynamite in the ground and blowing the field up. 😂😂

I visited the farm shop the other week on the way back from a Cotswolds wedding and I was so impressed with how neat and tidy it looked. Nothing like the chaos shown on screen, but then again I visited was on a Monday just before closing time. There were maybe 5 others in the shop and it's a small place, so I can't imagine what it's like on a Saturday. Lots of other people milling about in the seating area enjoying the sun, taking photos with the big Clarksons Farm Amazon Prime sign. The cow juice machine was out of order 😂

If anyone goes to the shop, get the crisps. They're unreal. The new flavour mushroom and wild garlic was delish. I have yet to try my bee juice! Next time I will be prepared and book The Farmers Dog!

If you're unable to book the Farmer's dog,try the farmer's puppy. You can grab burgers and sausage rolls etc. No need to book.

I love cars, but cannot say I was ever a massive fan of Clarkson on Top Gear.
Or of his paper writings!
No fan of Meghan, but that was way way too much...

However, I am a farmer's daughter and I love how he has shone the light on the plight of farmers. Farmers work soo hard for a pittance.

For this reason, I have become a fan.

Well done Jeremy!

And yet, when I was doing supermarket deliveries to lots of farms in the Fens during Covid, I never came across a farmhouse that wasn't a mega mansion 😁 invariably with beautiful views. Maybe well-paying farming is unique to East Anglia.

Husband had a hedgerow whilst we are in his pub recently, and that was quite pleasant.

He's probably got a lot more experience of pubs than he ever had farms.

Anyway, Amazon will throw so much money at it, it doesn't have to be a success.

I plan on going at the mid/end of June.
Do you think it is best to turn up at 9am opening time? Although comunater traffic??

We got there at 9.10am.and the queue was already an hour and a half long. The earlier you can get there,the better. Massive queues getting in and they shut the car park off by the time we left at around 12. This was last Saturday. Curious to know how it's going to be next Wednesday.

I absolutely love Calebs character (as in his essence/his being, not that he's not real!) he's so sweet and genuine, he doesn't put it on for the camera - you can clearly see when he tries to (eg pig labour massage 😂 which ultimately became a genuine moment!)

It was never more evident with how upset he was with the failed crop "I know it isn't my money" and how defeated he was because he'd put his all into it.

he is so sweet.
that genuineness can't be faked

I loved Hannah! She was fantastic.

Bit of a shock with Jeremy’s news. Hopefully, he’s making a good recovery.

Surprised they didn't give anyone, including Jeremy, a heart attack with that chilli sauce.

So will all farming area pubs be having a copycat Dare Day menu now? 🤮

Those fire extinguishers that he had full of milk, they're on Amazon for between £8 and £30 depending which one you get ... meant for beer not milk but still they're going to sell out, everyone's going to want a Clarkson chilli extinguisher ... genius ...

Already filmed but according to Amazon that’s it’s because of JC’s character. I’d imagine they’re rethinking their decision now - and if they don’t another streamer will snap the show up

It will all blow over enough that Amazon don't have to drop the show.

Just like most comments anyone has ever made they have had to apologise for. Very few people actually get "cancelled" for them.

Just catching the last couple of episodes of the series.

That pair of chancers who were supposed to be setting up the pub for Jeremy, what a useless pair of twats. Neither of them did anything other than spend huge sums of money. Neither of them thought to sort out pricing, left to Charlie at the last minute. They needed slapping and chucking out, never mind them threatening to kick Jeremy in the nuts. And frankly them walking out on opening weekend was the height of unprofessionalism.

I thought the chef was a bit of a dickhead as well. Seemed to think his needs were the only ones that mattered.

Jeremy bit off too much trying to open so quickly, but those women didn't help anything.

Charlie is just a fucking hero!

I do wonder if they left or if he got rid!
