Fans of the popular Amazon TV show Clarkson's Farm descended on TV Presenter Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire this week.

Hundreds of cars queued for around 2 miles to get to the Chipping Norton Farm on Tuesday (29th May) with a field having to be used as an overflow carpark.

People were seen standing queuing for more than 2 hours to enter the Farm Shop.

Richard Gerver was one of those who went there that day. He told us despite it being the day after the Bank Holiday, and Half Term, he was shocked at how popular Clarkson's Farm was.

"I have to confess when we saw the queues, myself, my wife and the dog got back in the car and went home.

"I would have loved to have gone in the shop, had a burger, had a beer, but it was absolutely crazy."

Richard posted pictures of the queues on X formerly twitter with the quote 'The power of television.' Clarkson's Farm has been confirmed as returning to Amazon Prime Video for Series 4.

Farmers have been welcoming of the TV show starting Kaleb Cooper alongside the former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson, saying it shows the reality of farmers lives.

Elsewhere this week Jeremy Clarkson has called for teenagers to be sent to work on farms, rather than being made to carry out national service.

It's after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak unveiled plans to bring back national service for 18-year-olds which he says will foster a culture of service and make our society more cohesive.

But, the plans have been ridiculed by Labour as a “headline-grabbing gimmick”.
