But, as fans will know, the real star of the Prime series wasn’t Jeremy himself, but rather his sidekick Kaleb Cooper.
The 22-year-old from Chipping Norton starred alongside Jeremy, and was an experienced farmer brought on to help a hapless Jeremy learn how to run his Oxfordshire farm.

Speaking to , Kaleb said that despite Jeremy referring to him as a ‘tractor driver’, he’s far more.
He said: ‘He referred to me as a tractor driver. That’s f***ing shit – I’m a farm manager.
‘I’m the boss. It’s Kaleb’s Farm, secretly.’
Kaleb had confirmed that of the hit Prime Video show was ‘well underway’ at the end of last year after it’s renewal was announced in July, and the pair have been spotted filming for the second series, expected to be released this Summer.
In a, the 61-year-old star can be seen kissing his girlfriend Lisa Hogan, 49, as Kaleb looks awkwardly at the ground.
In another brilliant photo, Jeremy can be seen driving a tractor while Kaleb rides on the front, looking a bit confused by the whole situation.

‘As you all know, I’m not a big reader (the only book I’ve ever actually read is @jeremyclarkson1) so I’ve decided to do the next best thing and write my own book! SURPRISE.
‘It’s about lots of things, but really it’s about how I love farming, and why nothing beats sitting on a tractor and ploughing a field – which, funnily enough, is where I did most of my brainstorming for this book.
‘Signed copies of ‘The World According to Kaleb’ are available to pre-order now!’
The big news drew praise from fans and even Prime Video UK, who commented: ‘Now that’ll be two books we’ve read. Congratulations on the book.’
The new book follows the one recently released by the former Top Gear star, titled Diddly Squat: A Year on the Farm, which chronicled his journey into farming last year, giving a behind-the-scenes look at the Chipping Norton farm.
