Jeremy Clarkson has revealed the sad reason he didn’t feel like himself while filming for his Amazon Prime Video series Clarkson’s Farm.

The former Top Gear presenter, 65, started the reality series in 2021 in order to give fans a glimpse of the day-to-day operations at his Diddly Squat farm in the Cotswolds.

Clarkson’s Farm has also been praised for raising awareness of the difficulties facing the farming industry and bringing British farming to an international audience.

Season four of the popular show was released this week, which fans have been waiting for after the devastating end to season three, which saw Jeremy and farmhand Kaleb make very little money for a second year.

On top of all that, Jeremy was rushed to hospital last year for urgent heart surgery after it was discovered by doctors that he had a completely blocked artery.

Which is why he’s now admitted to not feeling himself ahead of the new season, revealing that the last two episodes go in-depth on his health struggles.

He told The Sun: ‘You can see me becoming more and more ill as the days go on, because I just lose my sense of humour, lose my ability to stay calm. I get in a proper old panic.

‘I didn’t know at the time. I knew I wasn’t being me. I was trying to get the pub open for the August Bank Holiday weekend and, at the same time, doing the harvest on the farm.’

Calling his health problems ‘well-documented’, Jeremy explained that trying to run the farm and its associated pub caused high levels of stress.
