The Jeremy Clarkson documentary is back for a second season, but will there be a third?
Jeremy Clarkson has reopened the doors to Diddly Squat for Clarkson’s Farm season 2 on Prime Video, which details his grand plans to diversify his operation with a new restaurant.
And fans who’ve already binged the eight-episode season will no doubt be wondering whether there’ll be a season 3.
Clarkson recently faced serious backlash for a controversial column he penned about Meghan Markle, and following that, Amazon announced it won’t be working with the TV presenter beyond seasons of The Grand Tour and Clarkson’s Farm that have already been commissioned.
While it has since been reported that Prime Video‘s discontinuation of the show is unrelated to Clarkson’s comments, the future of Clarkson’s Farm still remains uncertain.
So, will we be getting a third season of Clarkson’s Farm? And what will happen to show now that season 2 is here? Read on to find out.
Will there be a Clarkson’s Farm season 3?
Yes, it appears so. On Monday night (13th February), Clarkson was asked on Twitter: “I loved it watched it on Saturday that just passed, loved the show can’t wait for a season 3 if there is one.”
Clarkson then replied to the account: “There is one.”
Do please watch Clarkson’s Farm 2 this weekend on Amazon. People seem to be loving it. And the soundtrack is amazing.

The show was renewed for another season in October last year with “new characters” joining Jeremy Clarkson’s Chipping Norton farm.
As for whether we’ll be seeing more of Clarkson on Prime Video in the future, according to Variety, the Grand Tour presenter won’t be appearing any new shows beyond 2024.
This includes The Grand Tour, which is expected to conclude after four more specials, the last of which should air in late 2024.
Clarkson’s Farm season 3 release date speculation
While Prime Video is yet to confirm when the third season of Clarkson’s Farm will arrive, it’s likely that the show will be back in 2024.
If the reports are true that Clarkson won’t be appearing in any Prime Video projects beyond late 2024, then the third and (most likely) final season of Clarkson’s Farm will need to land on the platform next year at the latest.
That being said, season 2 has taken a year and a half to hit our screens – however, this was most likely due to the COVID pandemic, which features towards the end of season 1.
What will Clarkson’s Farm season 3 be about?
We don’t know much about the third season of Clarkson’s Farm, however Prime Video has teased that fans can expect a few new faces to appear at Diddly Squat.
The next season will see Clarkson get up to more farming shenanigans alongside his girlfriend Lisa and friends Kaleb, Gerald and Charlie whilst inventing new ways to use the 513 unused acres of his farm through “typical Clarkson-crafted schemes”.
Speaking about the new season, Clarkson said in October: “I’m genuinely thrilled that we are doing a third season of Clarkson’s Farm. I’ve had some great new ideas, all of which have made Charlie, Lisa and Kaleb deeply unhappy.”
Meanwhile Kaleb added that he’s “over the moon to be taking part again” in the show.
“Well, they do say third time’s a charm! Maybe this will be the season that Jeremy finally starts taking advice from a real farmer!”
