Clarkson’s Farm star Jeremy Clarkson has informed his social media fans of a new development on his Diddly Squat farm.
Jeremy Clarkson has shared an important update for fans of Clarkson’s Farm. Posting on the official Diddly Squat Farm Shop Instagram page, the TV star revealed that recent severe weather has affected the farm, resulting in the overflow car park being closed and parking becoming “extremely limited.”
Storm Claudia has brought heavy rainfall across much of the UK over the past 24 hours, with wind gusts reaching 70mph and over 120 flood alerts issued. Amber “danger to life” warnings were in place yesterday for parts of central England and South Wales from noon until midnight.
Additionally, a broader area including Wales, central and southern England, and London was covered by a 24-hour yellow rain warning, with up to four inches (100mm) of rain expected from 6am yesterday until 6am today.
Since its debut in 2021, Jeremy Clarkson’s Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm has become a huge hit, following his adventures running Diddly Squat Farm alongside partner Lisa Hogan and co-star Kaleb Cooper. The show has received widespread acclaim and attracted viewers from around the world.
In other news, Clarkson was rushed to hospital in October for urgent medical treatment. The former Top Gear host revealed that he became seriously unwell on October 5 and went to an NHS hospital, as the nearest private doctor was two hours away in London. He described undergoing a procedure that was “Defcon 1 painful” and said he was “forced to stay the night” for observation.
In his column for The Sunday Times, Clarkson admitted he felt awkward about his hospital visit, as it came just hours after he had criticised the NHS in his previous article.
He wrote: “Last weekend, my column in this newspaper was about how all the fun in our lives, and most of the money, was being sucked into the bottomless abyss that is the NHS. I said it was a creaking monster, past its sell-by date…
“And then, nine hours after that piece appeared on the nation’s kitchen tables, I needed to go to hospital in something of a hurry. Oh s***.
“I’m not going to tell you what was wrong, because that’s none of your business.”
