Date confirmed for Clarkson's 51AVÊÓÆµSeason 5

Clarkson's 51AVÊÓÆµSeason 5 is set to return to our screens on June 3, with new episodes rolling out weekly on Amazon's Prime Video platform until June 17.

The new series follows former Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson as he makes big changes at his Diddly Squat farm while navigating the fallout from Chancellor Rachel Reeves' first budget.

The fourth season saw Mr Clarkson take on WestÌýOxfordshireÌýdistrict council once more as he tried to launch his pub, The Farmer's Dog, as well as a second farm shop and butchers.Ìý

Family farm tax

However, things take a turn for the worse in the farming world following Labour's family farm tax announcements.

Amid the uproar, Mr Clarkson decides some big changes are needed to make the farm run more smoothly. But while Diddly Squat tries to go high-tech, resulting in sidekick Kaleb Cooper's first-ever trip abroad, even bigger developments are heading for the Chipping Norton-based mixed farm that are going to prove much more of a challenge.

Members of the farming community will be able to get a closer look at the famed farm as it is hosting this year's Cereals event, also in June.

Although Mr Clarkson admitted he had not hear of the prestigious arable show before, once he found out more and saw the plots taking shape, his interest had been piqued.

He said: "I have got to be honest. I had never heard of it. I thought, could we have the boat show? That would be quite something. Or the motor show. Yeah, I would like that.

"I could not see why it was prestigious. I was thinking, so who is going to come all the way here to look at root structure?"

However, he said Mr Ireland and others had quickly put him right on the subject.

"Today, it is the first time I have been out and thought, actually, I find myself going, look at that oilseed rape and look at that. I am starting to understand it and I am genuinely and properly looking forward to it now."
