Just before filming the new season, Lisa Hogan drops bombshell on ‘relentless battle’ at Diddly Squat!
Jeremy Clarkson’s girlfriend Lisa Hogan has opened up about an ongoing challenge ahead of the new series of Clarkson’s Farm.
Broadcaster Jeremy Clarkson’s partner Lisa Hogan has revealed some of the obstacles facing them ahead of the new series of Clarkson’s Farm. Discussing her various ventures, the 52 year old former actress and model also highlighted some of the more difficult elements, reports the Express.
The Dublin-born personality stated: “We’re constantly improving lots of little things in the farm shop. Car parking remains an ongoing challenge, and I’m really hoping we get the go-ahead from the council to make that permanent.”
She additionally discussed her other enterprises, which will feature in the upcoming episodes: “I’ve had my eye on Valais Blacknose sheep for a while, so it was a real thrill when I found an excellent breeder, and they arrived.
“On the snail front, I’m a big fan of snail face cream, so that was the original idea. Of course, Jeremy then had other plans for them.”
The Clarkson’s Farm regular will be making a comeback, alongside the remainder of the Diddly Squat Farm crew, for series five.
A preview for the new run recently emerged and displayed footage of Jeremy, 66, in a hospital bed following a significant health crisis.
In the series five clip, the former Top Gear and Grand Tour presenter was issued firm medical instructions to recuperate and embrace a fresh eating regime following cardiac surgery.
Yet, the broadcaster disregarded these to travel to London as part of a demonstration against the government’s financial plan, which severely impacted farmers. Speaking about her partner’s recuperation, Lisa remarked, “Jeremy was advised to rest for a couple of weeks, and that lasted about a day and a half. He still absolutely refuses to eat cottage cheese.”
The fifth series of Clarkson’s Farm will comprise eight episodes, released across three instalments. The opening four episodes arrive on June 3, followed by the subsequent two on June 10.
Episodes seven and eight, the concluding pair, will become available on June 17.
Contemplating the influence of the popular Prime Video programme, Jeremy commented, “I like to think Clarkson’s Farm has altered the way people think about farming.
“I think more people now appreciate just how difficult it is and just how badly paid it is. For that reason alone, I think the programme has been a good thing.
“Obviously, things like the government budget have fed into that wider conversation across UK farming, and Clarkson’s Farm reflects that.”
