Jeremy Clarkson had a huge argument with his farmhand Kaleb Cooper after being left the run Diddly Squat Farm all on his own while the 26-year-old headed out on tour
While Clarkson’s Farm stars Kaleb Cooper and Jeremy Clarkson often butt heads while tending to their crops and livestock, the pair came to blows during their latest harvest. Things got so heated between the pair that Kaleb admitted things would run much more smoothly without the ex Top Gear host around.
Jeremy, 64, made the bold decision to buy dilapidated Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire and has seen it turn into a tourist attraction and working farm. He decided to document his success and failures on his popular Amazon Prime series, Clarkson’s Farm, thanks to help from farm assistant Kaleb.
Following the show hitting TV screens, Kaleb has seen himself become a star in his own right. Having never left the UK and dedicating his life to farming, Kaleb has been enticed by the showbiz world.
He recently headed out on a UK tour where he gave fans a deeper insight into farming during his one-man show. However, with Kaleb travelling the nation it left Jeremy alone to man the farm, as well as his pub.
Kaleb admitted the tour was “great” yet leaving Jeremy alone wasn’t the best idea. When harvest rolled around, the pair were left butting heads thanks to what Kaleb calls Jeremy’s “incompetence”.
“Jeremy and I argued quite a bit in harvest because it was so stressful for me trying to do my very best again as a contractor,” he said.
“It was pretty tough mentally. The problem with the harvest was because I’m still young, I’m 26, I think a lot of people can doubt me sometimes. And I doubt myself sometimes because I think everyone does ask themselves if they’re doing things right.”
He admitted that Jeremy “really enjoys” the harvest, yet “he’s a pain”. Kaleb brutally confessed: “Life would be easier if he wasn’t there during harvest, just because he’s a bit incompetent.”
Despite Kaleb’s harsh words, it seems Jeremy had to agree as he said solo farming was “a slow-motion accident”. Jeremy continued: “That, in terms of farming was my big wake-up call.”
In the trailer for the new series, Jeremy had to hire a new farmhand as Kaleb headed on tour. The teaser saw Clarkson set out to buy a pub that will reignite his farm-to-fork restaurant vision.
It comes after the council shut down his Oxfordshire restaurant after it was allegedly opened without planning permission. The series also follows Cooper, 26, as he embarks on his nationwide tour before returning to his role as farm manager.
Clarkson says in the trailer: “I want to make it plain that I am absolutely thrilled to bits for Kaleb, but he has left me just a little bit in the lurch.”
After explaining that he needs a farmhand, Clarkson is seen questioning a new member of staff who admits she has never seen the programme.
The fourth instalment of the series will launch globally on Prime Video May 23. Episodes one to four will be available from May 23, episode five to six from May 30, and episode seven to eight from June 6.
