Jeremy Clarkson will return for season five as early as next month, and recently said he’d only make the now-confirmed sixth season if “there was a good story” to focus on. Looking ahead, producer Andy Wilman, Clarkson’s long-time collaborator, has confirmed that the Prime Video series has a finite life and will only continue as long as Clarkson wants it to. The show’s deal with the streaming platform is done on a “rolling basis”, meaning the team is only contractually obliged to complete the season they’re currently filming, which will ensure the show goes out on a high. “You can’t have that thing where you have done one …

He does actually sing as well, believe it or not. We have heard Jeremy sing. I won’t divulge further. “I’ll leave that up to you as to the tone …

It’s believed that Clarkson cut short what was originally planned to be a three-month break to commence production. Clarkson purchased Diddly Squat Farm in 2008 as an investment, but started running …
