Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
If I've not seen it so far then you'd hardly be doing that.
So?

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
I've spent a fair bit of the past 2 days repairing fences due to my escaping pigs.
So I sat down to relax with a bit of CF and.......PTSD!

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
It's Middle England countryside 'peril'. Clarkson does mad farming stuff and the local council is lit. There's a whole 15 minutes about a planning meeting, where Clarkson goes into battle with various town elders and then they publicly snub him (like a virtual punch in a director's face) - it's high octane stuff and leaves you on the edge of your seat.
The economy is ruined but we can all enjoy millionaires complaining and pretending to farm a bit.

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
Contravention of para 5 subsection 47 of the Boorish Celebrity Must Have His Own Way Act 2003
I saw him in person many years ago being ignorantly rude to a hotel receptionist in Edinburgh. I suspect there's not much difference between him on screen and off, he may even be less twuntish on screen.
Still, his success mocks my failure.

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
I like the series. Have 2 episodes left. Gob smacked by the sheer pettiness of district councils. Would love to see the restaurant become a success and support the local community ( in more ways that busy-body pensioners pretending to stare at the night sky)

Not sure, but I think I read somewhere that the restaurant got poo pood.

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
We are quite obviously from different walks of life and have different things we want to achieve in life!
I feel he as a well paid rich man from a very privileged background he is still fairly down to earth. They are normally all in it for themselves, Jezza still seems to have a heart and an ability to still think freely!
I also like his anti authoritarianism.

How does he inspire you, what differences has it made to your life?

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
I aspire to the things he has achieved whilst still being fairly down to earth. Also see my reply to Weeksy.
He's a true born leader.

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
I only know of him what the media provides. Getting sacked for thumping someone who wouldn't - or couldn't - provide him with the food he wanted suggests bullying rather than leadership.
Which I quoted ...

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
Or maybe strong leadership...
TBH i don't know the whole story of that old incident but i'm sure like me Jezza doesn't suffer fools too well, so maybe it was well needed!

I've seen him personally too, he was the model of a charming host.

Re: Clarkson's Farm, Season 2
He definitely varies his persona depending on the type of programme that he is presenting. 'Buffoon' for TG Vs 'serious' for others (eg on the creation of Bletchley Park machines).Mr. Dazzle wrote: βThu Feb 16, 2023 7:13 am I've seen him personally too, he was the model of a charming host.
