Jeremy Clarkson, 64, and Lisa Hogan have become attached to their cattle at Diddly Squat Farm over the past few years. Located in Oxfordshire, Prime Video viewers have been following Jeremy’s farming journey since the first series of Clarkson’s Farm hit screens in 2021. It didn’t take long for viewers to fall in love with the show’s beloved co-stars and four-legged friends.
On Tuesday (September 8), the Irish model took to Instagram to announce the loss of one of their favourite farmyard animals. Devastating fans, the 54-year-old star shared a montage video of their sweet sheep Norman and their emotional farewell.
She captioned the tear-jerking clip: “The time has come for Norman to move to his new home. He’s brought us so much love and joy over the past few months, and we will miss him so much.”
It didn’t take long for fans to flock to the comments section to share their devastation at his absence and pass on their best wishes to the lamb. One user penned: “What a wonderful start to life you have given him [yellow heart emoji] he’s only known so much love!”
Another agreed: “Aww, happy memories [heart emoji] love you, Norm.” A third chimed in with: “I was near-tears watching this – daft really! What a lovely lad Norman is – I hope he will love wherever he is off to [sun emoji].”

A fourth wrote: “I’m crying [crying emoji], but at least he’s gone to a good home [praise emoji]” as a fifth added: “It feels like you’ve only had him a few weeks. He’s so sweet.” It comes after Clarkson urged the public to contact him following the theft of 11 ewes from his 1,000-acre Diddly Squat Farm.
The Top Gear star requested the public get in contact if they have any information, telling fans: “Me! Come to the farm and let me know. I know it sounds ridiculous, but Easycares are quite distinctive sheep. They’ve got a very pointy face.”
His farmhand, Kaleb Cooper, reportedly fears the sheep have already been slaughtered, telling The Sun: “They have got our own tag. It’s fairly easy to cut that out and put another in.
“But if I went to your flock, I could tell which is mine and which is yours. Every neighbour knows what their sheep look like. The police have got to be on this [theft], because it is happening more often.”
A source from a local farm added: “A raid like this needs some planning, and it could well be that whoever did this knows who owned the sheep.” Thames Valley Police has confirmed it is investigating the theft and that no arrests have been made yet.
