Welcome back to Clarkson's Farm. At the end of Jeremy's first year
in the tractor's driving seat, Diddly Squat farm rewarded him with
a profit of just £144. So, while he's the first to admit that he's
still only a 'trainee farmer'*, there is clearly still work to be
done. Because while he's mastered the art of moaning about nearly
everything, some of the other attributes required of a successful
farmer prove more of a challenge. Who knew, for instance, that
loading a grain trailer was more demanding than flying an Apache
gunship? That cows were more dangerous than motor-racing? Or that
it would have been easier to get planning permission build a
nuclear power station than to turn an old barn into a farm
restaurant? But if the council planning department and the local
red trouser brigade seem determine to frustrate his schemes at
every turn, at least he's got Lisa, Kaleb, Cheerful Charlie and
Gerald, his dry-stone-walling Head of Security to see him through.
And cold beer brewed with spring barley harvested from Diddly
Squat's own fields ... Life on Clarkson's Farm may not always go
according to plan. There may not always be one. But there's not a
day goes by when Jeremy can't say 'I've done a thing' and mean it
... * generous, in Kaleb's view ____________ PRAISE FOR DIDDLY
SQUAT 'Clarkson has done more for farmers in one series than
Countryfile achieved in 30 years' James Rebanks, author of A
Shepherd's Life 'Clarkson has showcased the passion, humour and
personalities of the people who work throughout the year to grow
the nation's food ... and brought an understanding of many of the
issues faced by farmers to the British public' National Farmers
Union 'A deserving Farming Champion of the Year' Farmers Weekly 'I
don't know anything about farming. It's like David Attenborough
doing jet-skiing, or Nicholas Witchell saying, "I'm going to be a
cage fighter'" Jeremy Clarkson
