I like it, but prefer Harry. Many of you will have watched Harry’s Garage on YouTube, but you might not have seen his Harry’s Farm series. He’s been producing it for a while, and maybe it’s no coincidence that Clarkson is one of his neighbours.

Just watched it all from start to finish today. Really enjoyed it and it was better than I imagined.

 

He works better on his own with a normal supporting cast, rather than with the other two.

Being a farmer myself I found it absolutely brilliant, I have sheep and can relate to what he says to a tee, he has shown farming to the public in a good way, he does need a smaller tractor for little jobs😃

Good to hear. It 'felt' pretty genuine but you never know with scripted shows. I'm glad to see it represents the industry well as it seems to be generating lots of positive PR around it.

 

For my money it was up there as peak Clarkson I think (and I'm generally a fan).

They’ve confirmed a season 2 as well.

Is that definitive now, Clarkson was only posting the other day about one of the daily papers (falsely) reporting a season 2 renewal.

Seems to have been confirmed by Amazon, but of course, it’ll take a while!

It all bought memories flooding back as a 10 yr old(ish?) helping out in lambing season, and castration with rubber bands, I didn't care or understand what I was doing but now I look back and want to say 'Sorry boys 🤣'. Getting up at between 5 and 6 in the morning and sat on the back off the trailer whilst the old man would drive around the field as we feed them in rain or shine......good times then!!

 

Youngsters now wouldn't know what to do😄

I don't take there nuts off, as mine go for meat at 3 to 5 months old and I have the space to keep the you randy males away from the females so they live a short happy life

Brilliant insight (with some extra ar$%ing about) to Farming as a whole and the burden that they carry on our behalf. Really shone a spotlight on some of the idiotic rules and regs but also showed why you just can't 'do stuff' and of course uphead animal welfare.

 

A great series that shows a better side of Clarkson and highlights the real heroes of our country once more - ordinary, honest, hard working folk that want for little but by God do they give their worth -  Kaleb, Gerald, Charlie.

 

For those that want more, see the amazing story of his Father-in-Law who earned a VC at the Battle of Arnhem - truly amazing and humbling.

i wasnt going to even bother watching this, but i dont have an amazon account, however i can watch a few, how long are the episodes as the ones i find are not that long - circa 13 / 14 mins each.

Sign up for the free trial of Prime and watch the series, then cancel before the month is up.   You'll probably find something else to watch as well.

Thanks, I may go off into to the world of Warez, which is where I started out in online activities.You can find anything you want on sites like that. I wasn't going to watch it based on his attitude in respect of his behaviour on TG, however I have since learned he was under a lot of domestic stress so I changed my mind.

I agree. Here’s my Lambo tractor:

i started to watch this last night while the boreball was on. I found it interesting but not desperately wanting to see the next episode.

It seems quite quickly to have settled into a rhythm of, programme starts" I'm going to revolutionise farming.." programme middle, typical Clarkson shenanigans, programme end " Jeremy you've lost money"
