Jeremy Clarkson has confirmed that new livestock have arrived at Diddly Squat Farm as production for the sixth season of Clarkson's Farm is underway. The 66-year-old broadcaster shared the news on social media after purchasing cows during a trip to the Scottish Borders.
Clarkson's New Cattle Purchase
In a social media post, Clarkson revealed his latest acquisition, writing: "Also, I bought some cows there." He had previously expressed admiration for the Scottish Borders, calling the region "beautiful" and noting that it helped him decide which part of Britain he finds most scenic. Fans quickly inquired about the breed, with some speculating they could be Highland cattle, though Clarkson provided no further details.
Season 6 Production Confirmed
The announcement comes after Clarkson revealed he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer at the end of Season 5. In a recent interview, he disclosed that he is now in remission, describing himself as "the world's luckiest man." He confirmed that filming for Season 6 is already in progress, posting on Instagram: "I am delighted to tell you Season 6 of Clarkson's Farm is currently being filmed, it's in production. And that's particularly good news for me because, well if you know you know. And if you don't know, you need to watch Season 5."
Impact of Health on Production
Clarkson had earlier expressed uncertainty about his ability to continue the show, telling his team, including Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland: "I'm going to be here for a little while. I don't know what's going to happen." He added: "What I wanted to say was if this is all successful, I'll see you in season six, and if it isn't, I won't. Take care, everyone." Now in remission, he has put an end to speculation about the show's future. It remains unclear whether the sixth series will face any delays due to his treatment.
Show's Popularity and Availability
Clarkson's Farm, which chronicles his journey managing Diddly Squat Farm and his Cotswolds pub, has been a hit on Amazon Prime Video. The sixth season is currently in production, and fans can stream previous seasons on the platform.
