Clarkson’s Farm Season 4 trailer breakdown
The trailer, which was released today, shows the former Top Gear host struggling to keep the farm afloat while Kaleb Cooper is away on his book tour. Clarkson is seen walking across a muddy field in the pouring rain as he says, “I want to make it plain that I am absolutely thrilled to bits for Kaleb, but he has left me just a little bit in the lurch.”

Clarkson reveals his struggles to his land agent, ‘Cheerful’ Charlie Ireland. He says, “I’ve got to be honest, I’m having a tottering time,” as he is stood in the darkness. “While Kaleb’s away, I’m going to need a hand.”
Enter the newest member of the cast. We are not introduced to ‘Kaleb’s replacement’ by name but it looks as though fans can expect the usual hilarity that comes from Clarkson’s relationship with Cooper.
The pigs, which were a large part of the third season are also featured heavily in the trailer. Clarkson and his partner Lisa Hogan approach the pigs and point out the smallest of the piglets, which the former fittingly names ‘Richard Ham’.
The fourth season is set to also feature a behind the scenes look at the opening of Clarkson’s pub, The Farmer’s Dog. The former Grand Tour host is seen sat across from Ireland, declaring, “I’ve had a brilliant idea… I’m going to buy a pub!”
As fans would expect, Clarkson buys a dilapidated local pub and looks to have bitten off more than he can chew. As he shows Hogan around the pub which is falling down around them, she exclaims, “The only thing that could help this s***hole is a wrecking ball.”
The opening of the pub is no less dramatic. As crowds of customers fill the pub, the chef explains to Clarkson that there has been a power cut, the fans are all off, there is no gas, and “lunch service is a bust.”
On top of all of this, fans can expect all of the usual chaos on the farm.
