When Jeremy Clarkson’s farm manager Kaleb Cooper was replaced on Clarkson’s Farm in series 4, Harriet Cowan made her own YouTube channel.
Clarkson’s Farm breakout star Harriet Cowan has suffered an unexpected setback in her brand-new on-screen career, and it’s all thanks to some pesky sheep.
The 24-year-old, who announced earlier this summer that she would be launching her own YouTube channel Harriet On The Farm, had promised fans her debut video would premiere at 6pm on Sunday.
But today Harriet revealed that her plans had been thrown off by a last-minute farming drama. She took to Instagram to explain: “UPDATE!!! Due to technical issues (the sheep got out) I haven’t been able to upload the video tonight so I’m rescheduling to tomorrow night at 7pm!! So sorry but this is reality of farming!! Take it up with the sheep…”
Her first video, which she previously teased on social media, is expected to be a Q&A introducing fans to her new platform. The entire video will now go live on September 1st at 7 p.m., according to Harriet.
Harriet first appeared on Clarkson’s Farm in series four, where she stepped in to lend a hand at Jeremy Clarkson ’s Diddly Squat Farm while regular sidekick Kaleb Cooper was away on tour.
The Derbyshire-born lass’ down-to-earth personality won over the viewers. Before switching to scrubs, Harriet used to work long shifts as a nurse and enjoys caring for her family’s farm’s livestock and land.
But after her TV success, she admitted she had caught “the farming bug” and decided to make agriculture her full-time career, while still keeping a foot in the NHS by doing occasional shifts.
She claimed to have the bug, “It’s true, I’m no longer nursing because it’s apparent.” Although I’ll work in the NHS and will work in bank shifts, I’ll definitely not on a daily basis.
With day-in-the-life vlogs, farming tutorials, and appearances from her partner James, her YouTube channel will give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at her daily life.
Harriet stated that she wanted to make an “100% positive” online community that draws viewers’ interest in farming. She stated, “I just want it to be a positive environment where people can chat, ask questions, and learn from it,” which is at the heart of what I want to do. And then, hopefully, it will develop into a lovely little community.
Since Clarkson’s Farm, her social media following has grown to nearly 800,000 TikTok followers and millions of likes on her content.
After getting to know Jeremy Clarkson while filming the Prime show, she joked that he “has the physique of a farmer.” Later in the year, she poked fun at him.
She also acknowledged that she wasn’t very familiar with his long-running motorsport career, which saw him appear on major television programs like Top Gear and The Grand Tour.
