Things became emotional in the final moments of Clarkson\u2019s Farm season 3<\/a>\u2018s first episode as farm owner Jeremy Clarkson found out one of Diddly Squat\u2019s most vital members has been diagnosed with cancer.<\/p>\n

Gerald Cooper was notably missing from the beginning of the new season, with Clarkson noting he was off sick for the day, leaving him and Kaleb up to their own devices.<\/p>\n

During the episode, Clarkson promoted Kaleb to farm manager and explained he has aims to make money out of an un-farmed part of land, meaning he won\u2019t have time to focus on the arable part of the farm, leaving that to Kaleb before propositioning a competition as to who can make the most money throughout the year.<\/p>\n

One of Clarkson\u2019s ideas was to make jam and, in an attempt to pick blackberries on an industrial level with a new machine, things go very<\/em> wrong.<\/p>\n

After attempting to get the machine around the wall to harvest the blackberries, it doesn\u2019t work out and breaks down the wall.<\/p>\n

Later on in the episode,\u00a0Clarkson receives a phone call and can be heard asking someone how things are going before sitting back in his seat and saying: \u201cOh no.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the episode ends, Clarkson sits back in his seat tells the camera: \u201cGerald\u2019s got cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Episode 2 picks up where the last left and Clarkson narrates: \u201cGerald had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, something that Kaleb and I discussed while trying to do what our absent friend normally does.\u201d<\/p>

As the pair tried to rebuild the wall that had been knocked down previously, Clarkson told Kaleb that Gerald\u2019s odds are \u201creally good\u201d after asking around with different doctors he knows.<\/p>\n

Clarkson tells Kaleb: \u201cHe\u2019s bewildered because for obvious reasons somebody has said, \u2018Look, I\u2019m really sorry it\u2019s cancer\u2019. That\u2019s all he heard. He\u2019s desperately upset. Terrified, poor man\u2026 He\u2019s 74, he\u2019s amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pair and whole of Diddly Squat farm will, no doubt, be wishing Gerald a very speedy recovery.<\/p>\n
