Clarkson's Farm to Continue with Sixth Season Confirmation
Jeremy Clarkson's popular farming documentary series Clarkson's Farm has reportedly been renewed for a sixth season by Amazon Prime Video, ensuring that viewers will continue to follow the former Top Gear presenter's agricultural adventures. The news comes as the show prepares to launch its fifth season this spring, with production for the subsequent season already in motion.
Filming Resumes After Short Break
According to reports from The Sun, Clarkson, aged 65, has already begun shooting new episodes for the sixth season after taking what he described as his "first break from TV in 40 years" in December. It is believed that Clarkson cut short a planned three-month hiatus to commence production, demonstrating his commitment to the series that has become one of Prime Video's most-watched programmes.
The Journey of Diddly Squat Farm
Clarkson purchased the 1,000-acre Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire back in 2008 as an investment, but only began actively running the operation in 2019. The series, which debuted in 2021, chronicles the highs and lows of his farming career, offering an intimate look at the challenges of modern agriculture. The show's success has been instrumental in supporting the farm through difficult times, including climate-related disasters.
Business Ventures and Future Plans
In July 2024, Clarkson expanded his business portfolio by acquiring The Windmill pub in Asthall, near Burford, which was featured in the latest series under the name The Farmer's Dog. However, Clarkson has since stated that he is "done with business" and not motivated by money, telling The Times that he simply seeks good craic and does not fully understand commercial ventures.
Emotional Fifth Season Ahead
The upcoming fifth season of Clarkson's Farm is expected to deliver some of the most emotional scenes yet, following an outbreak of bovine tuberculosis that struck the Cotswolds farm in October 2025. Clarkson referred to 2025 as the "worst year ever" for the farm, citing a shocking harvest due to heatwaves and drought across the UK. He acknowledged that the profits from the television series have been crucial in helping the business survive what he described as a disastrous harvest.
In a post on X, Clarkson remarked, "If a disaster on this scale had befallen any other industry, there would be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth." When a fan suggested that such drama would make for compelling television, Clarkson replied, "Yes. But most farms don't have TV shows to keep them going."
With the confirmation of a sixth season, fans can look forward to more insights into Clarkson's farming struggles and triumphs, as the series continues to blend entertainment with the realities of agricultural life.
