Anyone else watching clarkson farm season 2? I’m binge watching it!

[Ladybird69]

Don’t read if you are watching one episode at a time. I’m binge watching and loving it. The bloody councillors should be struck off the way they are treating him and through him the other local farmers.

So disappointing for the other local farmers who really needed to join the cooperative with JC to supply their produce.This programme should be shown on the BBC instead of countryfile

I felt so awful for the others who were pinning all their hopes on that co-operative. So sad.

Just catching up with this now. Got 1 episode to go.

It's really good, and as much as Clarkson can be a twit, he is great TV, no matter what he's on. He is really funny and entertaining...

Have to agree @Ladybird69 the way he is treated by the council, and the people in the area is disgusting. They don't like him at all, and don't want him to do ANYTHING. The whole area he is in seems to be full of horrible, petty, NIMBYs who don't like any outsiders.

Imagine moving to a place like that? I'd have given up ages ago if I was him. He's more resilient and tough than me. People have been as nasty as fuck to him.

He is very funny and entertaining. I didn't really think much either way about him before, but he was really good in this. I quite like him now.

I'm a farmer and didn't vote for Brexit and neither did Clarkson. It's an odd sort of view this. Would you rather that we import all of our food?

Yes Clarkson is fairly blatantly pissed off and frustrated about Brexit, he's never been pro. People just assume.

just catching up... what infuriated me about the council meeting was the attitude: "You don't need the money and it's perfectly acceptable that your farm" (and indeed every farm) "chronically for years and years (and years) doesn't turn a profit."

Clarkson makes plenty of his choices precisely to explore those farming issues. He may or may not really like cows as soil rejuvenators, but otherwise they and the hens are useful for demonstrating the challenges with farming those kinds of animals. Ditto with discussing badger control options where nothing seems off the table if only you could get away with it... teen DS said that was a perfect way for someone like him to understand and really engage with the issues. Charlie expressed well that the original objective of preventing cruelty (high protections around badgers) is very different from modern need to prevent TB. As ever I like the technocrat best, ❤️ Charlie.

Had a long discussion with DSs afterwards about how irrational planning committees are. I get infuriated when locals complain about any plan to bring JOBs and MONEY into the area that might employ local people locally.

PLEASE DO NOT BAN CLARKSON FARM!!

Due to Clarkson's comment regarding Megan, Amazon will be stopping Grand Tour and Clarksons Farm😡

This cannot happen, let me know eho agrees with me?

Where have you read that?

His Meghan comment was awful

Clarkson's farm was brilliant and should definitely be renewed for more episodes

Meghan is an absolute tit and so is her husband. I don’t care what JC said about her. He apologised. Why should millions of viewers who enjoy his shows have to lose them because of one foolish comment? But that’s the world we live in now isn’t it? No apologies accepted, drastic punishments far out of proportion to the “crimes”, no moving on. Bored with it.

He didn’t apologise to her he apologised for upsetting people (something along those lines) so the public but not to her.
