Clarksons Farm - Amazon

[aimzalicious]

Does anyone else love how Jeremy says "baby Jeeezus"

 

[cowtastrophe]

I think she’s great. I didn’t like how they made her look a bit thick to begin with presumably because of the way she looks.

 

[Catfan2]

Is this the right place to admit my huge crush on Charlie?

I've admitted it to my husband who thinks I'm weird.

I hope Tattle will be more accepting.

No, there’s definitely something about Charlie!

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

To support a millionaires pub rather than the local small business county pub ffs

You can do both. Do you never leave your local area to go somewhere different?

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

I was pre-warned about that particular scene

On a more wholesome note, I absolutely adored the Bonfire Night drone show!

Yes. I loved they made Gerald.

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

I‘m a bit baffled by Kaleb’s tour. It looked really shit - how did so many people pay to watch it?

I never understand stuff like this. He had a book too which people bought. I love Kaleb but on the farm, with Clarkson. I wouldn't pay to see Clarkson chat for an hour, never mind Kaleb. Wonder if Gerald has thought about a tour?

 

[RestingBunchFace]

Delighted for the outcome of Richard Ham!

 

[Rainbow1]

Haven’t watched the final episode yet but yes what was the actual point of the 2 women? I thought they were Project Managers but just seemed to walk round adding a cushion here and there

 

[dressinggownofdoom]

Booked a table for our anniversary next month finally. Excited

If you happen to see Charlie, tell him i’m looking for him

 

[BearOnChair]

Also more Charlie love just steadily working away and fixing issues without loosing his cool.

Just watched the episode where Charlie and Kaleb go to Downing Street. What an absolute prick that door man was!

Just watched this myself too. Charlie barely even knocked. If that is too loud and deserves throwing out it's unbelievable. Clearly never had Amazon knocking on the door to deliver.

What a prized knobhead.

Lisa's great, she really shone in these 4 episodes. Kaleb seemed a bit like he didn't want to be there, but (and I might be wrong here) I did think he had his own farm? Or at least his own sheep to look after/other work to do for himself? Maybe he didn't really have time for all these shenanigans, but felt he couldn't let the show down. I haven't read his books and don't much about him so I could be wrong. I am dying to know how much Charlie is being paid to be a part of the show and keep turning up at all these random times and places... Land agents don't come cheap

 

[Prince fan 1999]

Heading home after a drink in the garden then a 3 course dinner. Lovely atmosphere and food was amazing!!

 

[Kthxbye]

They were awful. Horrible cows

Jeremy should have had a bloody good project manager, and brought in advice from industry experts (not those two)

 

[stardust1]

I like Harriet too! She had the place looking tidy in no time. Cringed myself inside out at Kalebs stroppy attitude when he came back

I forgot to come back and comment once kaleb returned I ended up preferring harriet after all

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

Well, it was a '14 plate range rover, so not brand new.

Jeremy sticks with his 57 plate Range Rover too. They're much better than the newer ones anyway. Fur coat and no knickers the new ones. Terrible reliability.

I was genuinely surprised at the cost of a tractor.

 

[MyLittlePony25]

I imagine that being a farm vet is very different to being a pet vet like I’m sure they all want the best for the animals, but they are ultimately being raised for one purpose, and they don’t have to worry about upsetting an emotional owner. I did feel sad for the pig when Jeremy refused to stay with it

I think sometimes it’s best for the animal that someone close to them is not there crying as it can stress them out. When I had to have my horse PTS, I couldn’t be with him. He was PTS by gun as he was needle phobic and I didn’t want to stress him as I struggled to maintain composure.

 

[LandingLips]

My husband was watching it and I inadvertently listened in and was so taken by it, I sat down and watched with him. I think it’s a fantastic show and I was never one for Clarkson’s past shows so this was a bit of a revelation for me! I hope they do a second series.

 

[dressinggownofdoom]

Maybe, but then how can they plead poverty?

I don’t think farmers are saying they can’t afford to feed themselves or buy a car, but that their income is precariously based on rapidly changing environmental factors and ever increasing costs of things they need to produce food like fuel and fertiliser. The future of farming needs to be more sustainable because no farmers = no food.

Anyway a four wheel drive on a farm is a legitimate business expense.

Hope he's going to do Clarkson's Pub next, with this pub he's bought, and show some of the challenges in the pub trade in the same way as he's brought insight to the challenges of farming.
