Jeremy Clarkson is a journalist, a broadcaster, and a man who travels the world to slide sideways in supercars while shouting. He is not a farmer. Which is unfortunate because he’s bought a 1,000-acre farm in the English countryside and decided to run it himself, despite knowing nothing whatsoever about farming. This show follows the intense, arduous and frequently hilarious day-to-day life of Britain’s most unlikely farmer, as he faces up to unhelpful weather, disobedient animals, unresponsive crops and unexpected challenges. Helped only by a rag-tag band of agricultural associates, Jeremy quickly discovers that a modern farmer must be conservationist, scientist, shepherd, shopkeeper, midwife, engineer, accountant and tractor driver, often at the same time. This is Jeremy Clarkson as you’ve never seen him before.
