Kaleb Cooper’s surprise move as Clarkson’s Farm pauses filming
Kaleb Cooper, the breakout star of Clarkson’s Farm, has announced a new Christmas campaign in collaboration with Hawkstone — giving UK pubs the chance to receive a free Christmas tree, just in time for the festive season.
The 27-year-old farmer, who rose to fame working alongside Jeremy Clarkson on the hit Amazon Prime series, has become a household name since Clarkson’s Farm first aired in 2021. Four series have already been released, with a fifth currently in production — though filming has temporarily been put on hold.
Kaleb’s Festive Offer for Pubs
Kaleb’s latest project sees him teaming up once again with Hawkstone, the brand closely associated with Clarkson’s Diddly Squat Farm. As part of the promotion, pubs across the UK can receive a complimentary Christmas tree from Kaleb Cooper’s Jolly Pines simply by stocking Hawkstone Cider on tap this festive season.
Announcing the initiative, Kaleb said:
“Nothing says festive like a cracking cider and a fresh Christmas tree! Stock Hawkstone cider, and we’ll deliver a fresh Christmas tree right to your pub — plus, you might even get a visit from me! Let’s make this Christmas one to remember!”
The partnership highlights Kaleb’s growing business acumen and expanding brand beyond his television fame. His farming know-how and cheeky personality have made him one of the UK’s most beloved young agricultural figures.
Filming at Diddly Squat Temporarily Halted
Meanwhile, Jeremy Clarkson revealed over the weekend that filming for the latest series of Clarkson’s Farm has been paused. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the 64-year-old presenter wrote:
“Filming at Diddly Squat has stopped for a little while but the farming goes on. Today, I have rented out a pig for sexual purposes.”
The quip, typical of Clarkson’s trademark humour, suggests production is taking a short break following an intense filming schedule that has spanned several years.
Earlier this year, Clarkson hinted that Clarkson’s Farm may soon take a rest period, describing the last seven years of continuous filming as “gruelling.”
Despite the pause, fans of the show need not worry — both Clarkson and Kaleb remain active with new projects on the horizon.
Kaleb Heads to Australia for New Solo Series
In a major career move, Kaleb is set to front his first solo television series, titled Kaleb: Down Under (working title), which will see him travel to Australia for an agricultural adventure of epic proportions.
The four-part series, commissioned by Amazon, will follow Kaleb as he leaves his familiar Oxfordshire fields behind to explore one of the world’s largest and most competitive farming markets.
Determined to expand his farming and contracting business internationally, Kaleb will immerse himself in Australian agriculture — from large-scale cattle stations to cutting-edge crop production — while testing his skills far from home.
Speaking about his upcoming series, Kaleb said:
“I spend most of my time with the most travelled man in the world, so I got brave and booked my first ever flight to see what all the fuss was about. Australia, here I come!”
He added with typical enthusiasm:
“Australia, you’ll be gaining a new farmer for a couple of months as I discover if I can make my farming contracting business go international.”
The Future of Clarkson’s Farm
When asked by The Sun whether he might one day fill the gap left by Clarkson’s Farm with his own spin-off, Kaleb said:
“Hopefully one day. Who knows.”
The young farmer’s rise from local contractor to national celebrity has been one of the most unexpected success stories in recent British television. Known for his blunt honesty, endearing sense of humour, and deep love for the countryside, Kaleb has earned both critical and public acclaim.
As Clarkson’s Farm takes a short pause, Kaleb’s festive promotion and upcoming Australian adventure prove he’s far from slowing down — and that his future in entertainment, and agriculture, looks brighter than ever.
