Clarkson’s Farm fans make desperate plea to Jeremy and show bosses for next series amid flurry of scathing complaints

Since its launch in 2021, Clarkson’s Farm has received rave reviews, from critics and audiences alike.

It has given audiences a glimpse of the complexities of life on a farm- including the time pressure that goes into ploughing fields and sowing seeds, the sensitivity of crops and the farmer’s connection to the weather cycle and nature.

Despite the chaos, the show consistently showcases the beauty of the verdant Cotswolds and the simple, humorous joys of country life.

However, many ruled that the most recent season of the show took a more pessimistic tone.

Season 4 of Clarkson’s Farm was released in three instalments, with the final two episodes of the season arriving on Prime Video on June 6th 2025.

The season is orientated around Jeremy’s aspiration to become a pub landlord, and the creation of his pub, The Farmer’s Dog.

Fans suggested that the latest episodes are devoid of the first season’s country charm and were even too stressful to enjoy.

On Reddit, a discussion emerged, sparked by one fan, who reviewed the newest season, saying ‘I grew up on a farm. I now keep ducks. I understand mud, mess, and malfunction – I practically thrive in it. But even I found season 4 more existential crisis than entertaining chaos.’

‘This season was too much, it wasn’t the fun farming show with Jezza doing stupid and smart at the same time. It was too stressful to be enjoyable, the last 2 episodes especially,’ said another.

‘Lacking in genuine laughs and feel good moments…’ echoed a third.

But some commended Clarkson on his depiction of the day in, day out ‘plight of the British farmer ‘, and the hardships that the agricultural industry demands.

‘Things are so hard out there in real life. They said early on in the season how many pubs have shut down, and he decided to push on anyways,’ a fan noted.

‘They said how many subsidies have been cancelled, and they decided to push on anyways. This is what farmers, local entrepreneurs do every single day; because what happens if they don’t.

One fan fumed: ‘This season was too much, it wasn’t the fun farming show with Jezza doing stupid and smart at the same time. It was too stressful to be enjoyable, the last 2 episodes especially’

‘This season is quite demoralizing, tragic even I would say; but I feel for him, for them all, and I would only ever continue encouraging them to keep on keeping on. Their work matters so much.’

Clarkson himself pointed out the importance of preserving pubs in the countryside, which are fast becoming scarcer: ‘Loneliness is becoming a big issue in rural areas,’ said Clarkson.

‘If we end up at a point where there is no village pub, what is a village?’

Clarkson’s Farm has already been confirmed to have been renewed for season 5, and the general consensus amongst the audience is, they want to see a shift back to the lighthearted dynamic of earlier seasons and keep the focus on farming tasks.

‘Honestly, I felt more proud watching him grow his first potato and shout “I did a thing” than I did watching him throw piles of money at building a pub under pressure,’ followed up another.

The majority of fans feel that the show was at its peak when it focused on the farming basics: Jeremy Clarkson, Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland vs Mother Nature.

‘I want it to still be grounded in reality (such as the paint marker attachment for the seed drill) rather than trying something that stands no chance of working (like growing coffee) or feels like it is only being done for sheer spectacle (such as hiring a fleet of combine harvesters to try and complete the harvest in record time),’ another chimed in.

While a third echoed: ‘I completely agree, one thing I liked about the first season that is was just a lot slower. Less stuff were going on so you had the idea you were following growth.’

Clarkson’s Farm fans sunk their claws into two ‘horrendous’ stars that appeared in the Prime Video show’s finale.

The docu-series, which follows Jeremy Clarkson as he runs his own farm Diddly Squat in Oxfordshire, hit our screens in 2021.

The latest fourth series was released on the streaming service last month and fans are heartbroken that it has already come to an end.

Episodes Hurrying and Landlording were released on June 6 – and followed the Top Gear presenter get ready to open his pub The Farmer’s Dog.

But while watching the final two instalments, some viewers had the same complaint about pub consultants Sue and Rachel Hawkins.

The pair – who are known in the Cotswolds for transforming pubs – raised a few eyebrows when Pat Cummins told Jeremy to fork out on a number of questionable items, despite his £25,000 budget.

One of those recommendations was to spend £40,000 on outdoor umbrellas.

The pair ended up giving up their duties before the pub even opened, which left some viewers raging and taking to X, formerly known as Twitter to share their thoughts.

‘These two took all the money and after just two days of operation, claimed the building was not suitable as a pub, quit, and left all the mess behind.

‘You either point that out first and turn down the job, or take the money and make it work. scam+attitude issue #clarksonsfarm.’

‘These 2 “experts” the entire time had no issues with the pub, just wanted Jeremy to spend, spend, spend.

‘Tough opening and they both just f**k off, saying building’s knackered. Where was that thought process before opening? Absolute frauds.’

‘Never have I seen 2 people promise so much and deliver so little. I have a burning hatred of everything they are.

‘They took on a job, they didn’t raise imperative issues before hand and just let people suffer and stress.’

Many rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on the pair

But while watching the final two instalments, some viewers had the same complaint about pub consultants Sue and Rachel Hawkins

It comes after Pat Cummins exposed Jeremy’s surprising act at 10am after a revealing chat with host.

Just a few days ahead of the World Test Championship final at Lord’s, Clarkson welcomed the Australian cricket captain to his famous Oxfordshire farm, Diddly Squat, to film a segment for the show.

‘I’ve never been a fan of cricket,’ Clarkson remarked.

‘I always had too much hay fever to know what was going on.’

Speaking to Nine’s Today show, Cummins revealed that Clarkson had another reason to be interested in the sport.

‘He grows willow trees, so he’s making cricket bats,’ said Cummins.

‘I think he sees a fortune in the future where he’s going to sell these willow trees across to India or Australia, so he talked commercial terms on some of these things rather than cricket.’

Days before, new Diddly Squat farmhand Harriet Cowan took a cheeky swipe at boss Jeremy Clarkson by claiming not all farmers are ’60-year-old men with beer bellies’.

The glam blonde, 24, also starred in season four after manager Kaleb, 26, was unable to appear in several episodes.

Now Harriett, who also works as a nurse, has said she hopes her starring role in the show will help challenge stereotypes around who can be a farmer.

She told BBC News: ‘I think when you talk to somebody and ask what they stereotypically think of when someone says farmer they say “60-year-old man with a checked shirt and a beer belly”, and a lot of the time that is it, but us women are out here and farmers too.

‘Just because I’m a small blonde that likes to curl her hair and wear make-up, it doesn’t mean I can’t be a farmer’.
