Good stuff. You have to think that was a major incentive for Jeremy once he got into this world and realized just how insane it could be. I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log. | |||

I think it's safe to say that after the first season or, at least half-way through, the issue of government intrusion has become a bigger part of the show than originally thought. The round-table meeting he had with neighboring farmers and hearing the plight that they've all gone through with all the vagaries of government bureaucracy and regulation should've driven home the issues UK farmers have to endure. The issues the women dairy farmer he was purchasing milk and the badger problem on her farm, was particularly poignant. | |||

So great, can't wait for Season 3! We loved Clarkson's Farm. I recommended it highly to my Leftist/Socialist/near-Communist brother who lives in England with his commie English wife. Somehow they didn't mention it again. Clarkson brought an international spotlight of notoriety to the little fiefdoms of local bureaucracy that are often worse--because of lack of openness--than national ones. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

Le'me guess, are they in London? Where they're like New Yorkers, living in a massive bubble, disconnected from 'those other people' in the other parts of England? The liberal elite regard Clarkson as a buffoon with too large of a public profile. | |||

Thank you Very little |
If he was an echo chamber for their ideology they'd love his show and him... Clarkson's an interesting character, I've got to go back to watching the Farm show... | |||

Probably worse, they'e in Oxfordshire. And to think my brother started out in FFA. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

Clarkson's farm is in the NW corner in-between Chipping Norton and Chadlington, that whole area is renown for its classic English villages. | |||

Get on the fifty! |
First 4 episodes are out "Pickin' stones and pullin' teats is a hard way to make a living. But, sure as God's got sandals, it beats fightin' dudes with treasure trails." "We've been tricked, we've been backstabbed, and we've been quite possibly, bamboozled." | |||
