Prime Video has released the trailer for the upcoming fifth season of Clarkson's Farm, showing Jeremy Clarkson undergoing emergency heart surgery. In the clip, Clarkson reveals that three arteries feeding his heart were blocked, leaving it without blood supply. He previously wrote in The Sunday Times that without two stents fitted, he could have been 'days from death'.
The new season opens with this near-death experience, after which doctors advise Clarkson to slow down. True to form, he ignores the advice and takes on a flock of 'easy care' sheep that prove difficult, attempts to deliver a baby, and tries to convince Kaleb Cooper to use a high-tech driverless tractor, which promptly breaks down.
The series also highlights the financial pressures on farmers, including controversial government proposals. A heartwarming moment shows Cooper learning his partner Taya is in labour but insisting on finishing his work first, much to Clarkson's amusement.
The first four episodes of Clarkson's Farm season 5 will premiere on Prime Video on Wednesday, 3 June, with two more episodes dropping each of the following two Wednesdays, for a total of eight episodes.
