Jeremy Clarkson has officially confirmed that Clarkson’s Farm will be returning for a sixth series, and has hinted that the hit Prime Video show could continue even beyond that. While it’s already been a major success, Clarkson’s announcement comes with even more exciting possibilities for the future, as he reveals that filming could recommence sooner than expected, especially with the arrival of wintry weather that might prompt his cameras to return to the Oxfordshire farm.
The 65-year-old television personality had previously announced plans to step away from television in early 2026, after a long career that spans over 40 years. However, Clarkson has made it clear that this break will likely be short-lived, and Clarkson’s Farm will be one of the key reasons for his return to the small screen. In a conversation with The Sun, he explained that the decision to pause filming was largely influenced by a variety of factors, including the travel plans of his trusty farmhand, Kaleb Cooper, who was heading to Australia, as well as Clarkson’s own commitments to hosting Millionaire Hot Seat. Despite this, Clarkson was keen to take a brief respite, admitting that he “really wanted to have a holiday because I haven’t had one in ages.”
However, the nature of farming, as Clarkson points out, doesn’t allow for long breaks. In true Clarkson fashion, he joked that filming could quickly resume if conditions warranted it. “If it snows we’ll start filming again,” he said, underlining his commitment to documenting every facet of farm life on his beloved Diddly Squat Farm.
As for the future of Clarkson’s Farm, it’s clear that the show still has plenty of life in it. Clarkson confirmed that Amazon is fully backing a sixth series, with both he and the streaming giant eager to continue the collaboration. “Amazon want to and I want to,” Clarkson stated. “I’ve got a good idea for six.” It seems that the series’ ability to capture the unpredictability and humor of Clarkson’s farming journey has made it a beloved fixture for viewers, and he’s already looking ahead with two more potential ideas in the pipeline. Clarkson emphasized that he would only step away from the show once ideas ran dry, and for now, he has plenty of material to explore.
These comments come ahead of the highly anticipated release of Clarkson’s Farm series five, which is set to land later this year. As fans eagerly await the new season, Clarkson is reflecting on the thought of a break from filming, admitting that it has made him feel uneasy. “I’m genuinely frightened because until March, I won’t be filming a TV show for the first time in forty years,” he shared.
With series five still to come, and series six already confirmed, Clarkson’s Farm looks set to remain one of Prime Video’s most popular and enduring shows for the foreseeable future. Clarkson’s passion for farming and his distinctive, comedic approach to the challenges he faces will surely continue to captivate audiences, ensuring that the farm – and the show – will remain a fixture for years to come.
