‘It’s going to be rough’ admits Kaleb Cooper as he opens up about ‘difficult’ Clarkson’s Farm series four
KALEB Cooper has admitted that the upcoming series of Clarkson’s Farm might be a difficult watch.
The famous farm manager has been filming the fourth outing of the hit Amazon Prime Video show.
Kaleb, 26, is known for his essential role on Jeremy Clarkson‘s 1,000-acre Oxfordshire Farm.
The entertainment show follows the former Top Gear presenter as he tries to run Diddly Squat in Chipping Norton.
Viewers have both laughed and cried as they struggle to deal with issues that arise.
Storylines have so far included disagreements with the council, the farm shop becoming too popular, and the deaths of animals, such as his beloved heifer named Pepper.
However, spots of torrential rain have wrecked utter havoc on the farm, as it severely impacted their ability to plant and sustain crops.
Kaleb has been no stranger to posting bleak updates, and he was recently left fuming by the damp conditions.
Now he’s posted yet another note to fans following the recent torrential downpour.
Taking to his Instagram story, the farmer warned it will be a difficult watch as they have had a rough time filming the show.
He wrote: “I can sense this being an interesting and difficult season!”
The worker added: “We really don’t need this rain in July after the winter we had,” alongside a face palm emoji.
It seems that the farm has been struggling for months after rain ravaged the Oxfordshire land.
The Diddly Squat farm shop posted an update on the conditions in June, as they warned of a ‘rough’ year ahead.
An aerial shot of the flooded land was posted on the grid page of the official account.
They wrote in the caption: “It’s going to be a rough year. All that seed sowed, drowned with the constant rain.”
Meet the cast of Clarkson's Farm
Clarkson's Farm began streaming in 2021 and follows Jeremy Clarkson and his team managing Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds. Here's a 'who's who' of faces in the Clarkson's Farm cast.
- Jeremy Clarkson: Presenter and journalist; also known for Top Gear, The Grand Tour and Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
- Lisa Hogan: A former actress and Jeremy’s partner, who assists in the running of the farm shop.
- Kaleb Cooper: A young farm worker from Chipping Norton, who forms a double act with Jeremy on-screen. He’s later promoted to farm manager in series three.
- Gerald Cooper: Specialist in the construction and maintenance of dry stone walls and the farm’s “head of security”. Of no relation to Kaleb.
- Charlie Ireland: Nicknamed “Cheerful Charlie”, a professional land agent who advises Jeremy on land management.
Kaleb also gave fans a close look at the exact problems the business was facing after he attempted to take to the sludgy fields.
He was inside one of the high tractors as he tried to manoeuvre the machinery on the slippery ground.
As the wipers tried to clean off the large windscreen, he couldn’t help but raise his voice in anger.
He exclaimed: “It’s so wet! How much more rain can we have?!”

But it’s not all bad news, as viewers will get to see inside Jeremy Clarkson’s new £1 million Cotswolds pub.
In June, the Sun columnist previously revealed he purchased the business, near Burford.
Although he said it may not be open until 2025, he got behind the unfinished bar to serve pints to punters watching the final Euros game in a surprise move.
Footage surfaced on social media, and it seemed that he looked right at home – albeit surrounded by boxes – as the locals geared up for the anticipated match.
Talking to the camera, he said: “Well we’ve accidentally opened our pub before it’s finished.
“It’s going to be very many weeks before we’ve got it open.”
