The Telegraph love it, the Guardian hate it, seems like the perfect endorsement to me, very much looking forward to watching later.

I thoroughly enjoyed that. Not sure how many activities would have been undertaken if no TV show was being made but it didn't really detract from the viewing. I'm also guessing that Lamborghini tractor supply was more than £40k...
To be fair the Lambo is a 2012 so probably not. I thought it was a loan as it was on trade plates the first episode but I guess was waiting for it to be registered as it was imported from Germany.

Now he's saving wildlife, producing food, creating a local farm shop etc I don't think they know how to hate him. The author of the piece opens with his 'contempt for farming' when it's abundantly clear from the show he's found a real passion for it. It's like she set out wanting to hate him and the show before it even started...
That review is utter nonsense. I didn’t see anything but admiration for the industry and those who work in it.JagLover said:
Looks like Hammond is the only one who didn't make a decent spin off series.
I enjoy May's cooking thing but Hammond's island thing was a miss.Mind you, Hammond's input to TG or grand tour was mostly as a foil for the other two.
Really enjoyed the first episode of this farm lark.

Yes I suppose we shouldn't be surprised at Hammond. Even during peak TG there were many moaning about him so it is hardly surprising a solo series crashed and burned.

Ok, NOW I'm excited. Thanks.
I'm a farmer so I'm right up for this.
You may know the answer to this then, why did he not plough his fields?I'm a farmer so I'm right up for this.
I've been looking forward to this as I like Clarkson, I think me and him share a few things in common. Britishness, love of cars, engines, machines, history, Worlds wars, old planes, lack of patience, an underlying sense of humour.
I'm also leaving car related stuff behind to buy a smallholding. So whilst a lot of his stuff is just arsing around it does send a serious message out too that farming is bloody hard work and often pointless - at least as far as making money is concerned. That is often reflected by other farming programs too, I haven't watched Harrys farm yet though, don't even know where to find it, i'm assuming YT so it may not get watched.
I watched the first two Clarksons last night and it didn't disappoint, you can immediately tell when I have a genuine interest in something on TV as I put my laptop down and give it 100%.
That aside I can't add anymore than anyone else already has, just looking forward to some more now.
