Weakest season i would say, still watches well and had no problem moving to the end.

Hope they continue on making more seasons.

What I love about this show is I feel a majority of people look down on farmers as being unskilled dumb hicks with no education..
And when you see the planning that goes into all of this it's unreal.. you walk away with a whole new respect.

People that look down on farming are foolish. Like college students saying cattle farms are dangerous to the environment is absolute ignorance.

I look down on giant corporate farms and GMO seed that they plant and then try to use to drive family farmers out of business. We need more families moving into farming.

Binged the third season in 2 days! Very good but did feel a bit more artificial than the first - hovercraft?!, meeting the PM, nettle soup, dam building scenes, remote controlled mini bulldozer... were weird & unnecessary. Episode 4 was incredible, vivid, raw and bare - no cuts for the public. Jezza jokes along with Lisa are classic, I have grown to like Charlie and dislike Caleb, he keeps yapping the same, has become quite irritating now.

Excited for the fourth, I wonder what Jeremy will do next.

Totally agree. Seems a bit 'sitcom' this series. Felt more like 'what would be funny?' instead of 'what needs doing on the farm?'.

This is Clarkson, he is a showman not a farmer. We can put the showman in a farm, he is still going to be a show man.
And the whole premise of the show is the fish out of water trope.
So of course, most of the time he will be trying new stuff that probably goes wrong.
Anyone that has ever seen Top Gear knows the saying "what could possibly go wrong"
In a way, Clarkson's farm is an extension of the Top Gear episode, when the 3 guys got some tractors and went farming. (Series 9, Episode 5)

I knew about the crash. But didn't know about the lawsuit.

Freddie Flintoff 'chose not to sue the BBC after Top Gear smash'

Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff chose not to sue the BBC after a horrific crash on Top Gear put him out of action for months. He allegedly negotiated a £9million settlement with the corporation.

Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff chose not to sue the BBC after a horrific crash on Top Gear put him out of action for months, sources close to the former England cricket captain have claimed.

Mr Flintoff, 45, is understood to have negotiated a £9million settlement with the corporation for two years' loss of earnings. Both Mr Flintoff and the BBC are reportedly 'satisfied' with the agreement.

Season 5 is coming

It's a shame that Clarckson's Top Gear and The Gran Tour are over. But at least we still have things like Clackson's Farm, Drive Tribe, Food Tribe, Ben Collin's drive, etc.

My favorite saying from TG was "ambitious, but rubbish".

Always good to see more Clarkson's Farm seasons ordered. Shame, "Our Man In" got cancelled. The India season was a letdown being too short but hoped they would learn their lesson and go to other countries with as many episodes as Japan and Italy.

Good news.

Let's hope it doesnt go the way of latter Top Gear and The Grand Tour where it was 90% scripted events.

Clarksons Farm is so popular due to it's unscripted nature, as soon as that goes then the show is over.

People need to take the goggles off and watch Top Gear from season 1 it’s been scripted since the first episode. Was just a lot more original back then before 25 seasons worth.

Clarkson idea to make it more entertaining after the classic top gear.

I am glad he has such a hit.

This show is pure cinema

Oz and James's Big Wine Adventure (S1 france, S2 california)
Oz and James Drink to Britain

It's available on youtube and veeeery entertaining if you like plonk n bantz.
