Clarkson's Farm Star Harriet Cowan Says Jeremy Missed a Trick at Diddly Squat
Harriet Cowan: Jeremy Missed a Trick at Diddly Squat

Harriet Cowan, a breakout star from the Amazon Prime series Clarkson's Farm, has claimed that Jeremy Clarkson missed a trick when she visited Diddly Squat Farm with her father for the Cereals 2026 farming event.

Discovery at the Soil Hole

Harriet and her father attended the well-known agricultural event, which featured numerous stalls, attractions, and food stands. One particular area was named the Soil Hole, which, according to signage, examines 'the science of regenerative agriculture'. In a video shared on her YouTube channel, Harriet and her father joked that it ought to have been named Clarkson's Hole instead. She asked her dad: 'What we found?' He replied: 'Jeremy's hole.' Harriet added: 'This should say Jeremy's hole. He really missed a trick there.'

Life After the Show

Harriet, 25, became one of the most notable new faces from Clarkson's Farm and has since become a well-recognised name. However, the sudden spotlight took its toll, forcing her to make several changes, including stepping down from her full-time role as a nurse. Speaking to Hello! about the moment the show aired, she said: 'When the show first came out, I turned my phone off for a while because I was like, "This is insane". I was being recognised by patients.' Despite stepping away from nursing, she hasn't dismissed returning, stating: 'I've still got my PIN - I will keep that because I worked so hard to become a nurse.'

Working with Jeremy Clarkson

Speaking to the Fed by Farmers podcast, Harriet reflected on her experience working alongside Jeremy. She said: 'He's marmite isn't he. I love that guy, I think he just doesn't care which is great. He was like a father figure to me when I was there, he was really lovely.' She also commended Jeremy's influence on agriculture and how inclusivity for women in the industry has progressed. Harriet explained: 'It's a lot better than it ever has been. I think there's certain things certain places certain people that they aren't happy with it, and I think before like Clarkson's people would be like she don't have a clue. I don't know if I'm the wrong person to comment on it because obviously people know what I can do off of the show. In one way that's really good and then in another way, there's like they've got a preconceived idea of what you're gonna be like.'
