Then why would you even watch it?
You have to be one bigg ass idiot to watch a program called "THIS c**t I HATE'S FARM" only to come out saying "oh shit it was awful because it was just about that c**t I hate!"
I envision a Clarkson's Farm special where it's 2 hours of James and Richard mucking about on his farm and fricking with Jeremy but he doesn't know they are there until the end and Kaleb/Charlie (who are in on it) constantly heckle Clarkson about it. At the end James and Richard would reveal themselves and Clarkson would literally shit and piss himself.
>Entire season is Jeremy preparing a new farm restaurant plan. >Walks into the council session >James and Hammond wave excitedly from the council table >"... oh frick me."
This show makes Britain looks like hell on Earth. It either rain for a whole month straight, go through months long dry straight, drops to near zero temp out of nowhere, or just find new ways to frick up your crops.
>>may makes cooking kino
Him forcing the studio zoomer to try out Cold War era meals was hilarious. Do these three all share the same production team? Cause I think I've seen her as a camera man in one Clarkson's Farm episode.
I always thought do you have a loicence for that was just an exaggeration for laugh but reality is even worse. >They had to send for an adjudicator from London to try and fight for the right to build stuff on their own land
NIMBY boomers in the UK want to stop anything from being built anywhere, so probably anything they want to do is blocked for some environmental reason
Surely it can't be like that the entire country, nothing would get done otherwise.
I wish, they build tons of deanoboxes around here (but no extra services or road improvements to support them, of course).
The latest plan is to more than double the size of the village I live in, and it's already pretty big.
>Nothing would get done otherwise
Exactly, we were about to build a high speed railway from London to Edinburgh (400miles) then it got scaled back to only go from London to Leeds (300miles) , then London to Manchester (150 miles) and now it's only going to Birmingham (50miles)
Many reasons for this but you are absolutely right that nothing gets done anymore here. It's beyond moronic.
Remember those famous dystopian novels and movies like 1984, A Brave New World or Brazil? All made by bongs, for obvious reasons. This is also the country where a voice tells you to "mind the gap" each time you take the Underground and where you can't even legally carry a slip joint knife. Not to mention the awful food and the rotten teeth. At least cyberpunk dystopias have guns and cute robotic chicks.
>It either rain for a whole month straight, go through months long dry straight, drops to near zero temp out of nowhere, or just find new ways to frick up your crops
You've pretty much just described most of the mid west there, at least in Britain the temps aren't as extreme
You're being dramatic. It's "normal" in the midwest just the the east coast. In the Deep South, it's hot and humid. Southwest is arid and can reach temps regularly around 110 in the summers, which is bordering on uninhabitable for me. And the west coast is moderated by the ocean so it's wetter and more mid-temps all around. There ya go.
Midwest can get hot during the summer, or cold during the winter but that's just the nature of having four seasons.

We hand a wind storm a couple years ago that straight up wiped out hundreds of farms and crops. Like just ripping shit out of the ground or scrapping shit bare.
Jesus. I'm glad I live in a country where stuff like this doesn't happen.
So the weather is relatively unstable most of the time? Why did you Americans make that area your food growing center then?

The midwest and heartlands represent a third of a a billion acres of high-quality arable land for growing staple crops like corn, onions, and wheat. Or about 10-15% of all the world's arable land.

Tornadoes are localized and a decent warning system and storm shelter makes them manageable. They don't jack up your insurance rates like floods or hurricanes.
The amount of large hail we get is a constant source of stress, though. Big enough to total your car or put holes in your roof. Huge ice chunks that will knock you out cold.

I lived there for several years. You have accurately described it.
yes, and it just wasn't funny
the female guide was terrible and actually brought the show from a 6/10 to a 4.5/10 for me
the scenes with her was so boring. She's a "comedian" but all her jokes were "Did you know England occupied India??"
our man in japan got me laughing the hardest i have ever laughed over that stupid tourguide robot
haven't seen the italy one or india one but the show is okay in my books from that alone
i re evaluated my entire stance on this man ever since he had that insane take (on that workshop show?) about how owning a fast car is like the base need for any successful man because it's related to the evolutionary basis where faster animals get the females and get to the drinking pond faster or something.
the reassembler is absolute kino. Its such a shame that such formats are never appreciated by fricking executives because they think viewers are mouthbreathing morons. We will never get another season because of that.
Hard to imagine that Kaleb didn't come from a farming family and basically learned how to do everything from scratch. Maybe I should have gone into an apprenticeship program instead of uni.
What? No way that's true.
That's even more blackpilling since he already has it made, owns land, trucks, livestock. I legitimately thought he had lots of help from his family to get there. He's such a chad, unbelievable.
I'm serious, it's from an interview with some Aussie news channel. Guy basically ditched school at 18 to start raising chickens and it all grows from there.
>hes only 25 and is already incredibly knowledgeable and successful without even leaving his tiny farming hometown for more than a day
He's the greatest British person I've ever seen
The fricking college thing is an egregious lie. Literally my entire life being told >you have to go to college to get a good job, if you go to college you'll make loads of money
absolute bullshit, don't send your kids to college bros, get them a heavy equipment operator cert instead and they'll be set for life
because the majority of the pop. is gen x and boomers and that was probably true when they were young when only 10-20% of people went to uni unlike 50% these days
people live in the bubble of their era
i have a cousin that kaleb reminds me of. shes not from a farming family either, just happened to live in farm country. shes one year older than me. got involved with young farmers when she was like 14ish, found work on farms and is now a fully qualified vet, they trained her and paid for her to get the qualifications etc. she makes bank and owns a house with her boyfriend (hes a joiner, got trained in an apprenticeship out of school afaik)
i went to law school and am up to my eyeballs in debt and will continue to be for quite some time. i unironically would rather have done what she did kek
Even though it's repetitive because it happens multiple times a season, it's always funny when Jeremy comes up with a straightforward idea like building a parking lot and then has to listen to Charlie or someone spend 10 minutes listing all the reasons it's illegal/against the rules. The red tape in Britain really does seem insane, though I don't have a point of comparison.
>The red tape in Britain really does seem insane, though I don't have a point of comparison.
it's hell everywhere. in some places (britain) it is even worse.

The NIMBY regulation nerds aren't bad. You don't want corporations dumping toxic waste into a fricking pond do you?
And they had a right to be turned off by his idea to open a shop, it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos. Clogged entire roads up all just to be on tv for a millisecond.
the real trick is to know people who have influence over planning permission, that's how most the property developers who have been raping all the traditional period housing by turning them in flat conversions have been doing it
you don't have have to be rich and influential or anything, just don't be an outsider, know some people in the circle and well-connected locals breeze through the process
>spend 10 minutes listing all the reasons it's illegal/against the rules
But that's mostly because his farm is in the Cotswolds which is classified as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which is English for "Everything stays as it is, you're not allowed to change anything here!"
Wait, people legitimately can't understand what he is saying? I thought it was just a joke like the one from Hot Fuzz (I could also understand those guys).
In the Cotswolds you're paid by the government to keep the farmland with natural growth.
Deciding to use them as farmland and removing the natural growth means you won't get government bux anymore.

And they had a right to be turned off by his idea to open a shop, it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos. Clogged entire roads up all just to be on tv for a millisecond.
It's a stupid gimmick. He actually visits a shop in the same area that sells the same shit so it's just negatively effecting local commerce if anything. Especially since he subsidizes it all because he's rich.
See, I would have been fine with it if they refused him permission only because they wanted to protect the town and the locals, but the majority of them seems to be refusing the permit because they have some sort of grudge against Clarkson.
I'm sure they're getting pushed by the locals to do it. "That Clarkson is ruining our town and you're doing nothing about it! I'm calling the news about how our council members are ruining the citizens lives!"
Charlie did say that there's only one part of the town left that still like him, but even then, some of the comments they made during the permit hearing seemed very personal.
And to be clear, I do agree with some of the demands they raised, like all the produce has to come from within a certain distance of the town, but the rest are just insanely petty.
It's like in Vancouver people always love to shit on the NIMBY boomers "waaah why won't they allow commie blocks to get built right beside their suburbs" yeah the housing market is fricked but I'm not going to blame them for not wanting poverty towers to pop up everywhere.
How about we stop importing half a million poos every year but the little fricking cowards would rather hate on boomers because that's perfectly acceptable.
That's a whole different situation though. One is local red tape stopping a man trying to start/run his business while the other is the government being moronic and forcing the burden on the population.
>all the produce has to come from within a certain distance of the town
That he can't sell a book he wrote while at his house on the farm is the biggest joke about this one.
Yeah, the book and shirt restriction are a bit daft since I doubt the town even have any facility to produce those in large number, but the point about produce is still valid though.
Or its all made up bollocks for the telly.
Maybe. Seems kinda dumb to lie about something that can be easily check for though.
Problem is that instead of engaging Clarkson in a discussion and seeing if there's a win/win solution or finding areas where they can come to a compromise, they dug their heels in and made it an antagonistic relationship.
As was noted in the second season, one of the chief opponents spearheading opposition doesn't even live or farm in the area. He's some rich art restorer living in a fancy flat in the middle of London, who bought a house in the village as a vacation home and now doesn't want his pristine skies ruined by lights from a farm shop or his town to get tourist commerce.
It's not even an actual local, just a rich Londoner b***hing.

>it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos. Clogged entire roads up all just to be on tv for a millisecond.
Yeah but when he tried to come up with a way to alleviate the problem (by building a parking lot) they told him he couldn't do that either. I do think it was negatively affecting the town at first, but I don't know why they wouldn't work with him to fix it and maybe bring more tourism to the town/area in general in the process.
The neighbouring farmers seemed to be really in with the restaurant plan that was also wienerblocked.
Clarkson defs made mistakes, but all the evidence we have is that he's made loads of effort to create compromise and the council just wont because they want to protect their holiday homes.
I've heard more than once that most of the people on these councils don't even live in the area, or only recently retired there after making money in the city all their lives.
The fact thats its Clarkson's tv show and thats where most of the info is framed, theres obviously some bias, but just point to any evidence that the council has any interests in what the locals want.
be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
>just point to any evidence that the council has any interests in what the locals want
the issue was discussed in a public meeting, shown in the last series, where the public voiced opposition
>be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
I literally pointed that out. You didn't actually give me any evidence though, which is what I was asking for. I am being reasonable.
>be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
okay >the issue was discussed in a public meeting, shown in the last series, where the public voiced opposition
that wasn't an honest depiction, according to you, so therefore not evidence
The boomers and pensioners maybe. Young people growing up want jobs and ways to provide for themselves, and bringing tourism and commerce to the town will do that.
There's a middle ground for everything. Like how Karen went from a term for "white woman flipping out at black kids playing in the park" to "white woman upset the restaraunt burned her meal and automatically charged a tip." HOAs are nasty, but a lot of complaints I've seen about NIMBYS are sour grapes from people who live in a dogshit area that gets worse because no one who lives there fights to keep things nice.
Regulations hurt small buisness mote than they hurt big buisness.
Big Buisness loves Big Government, anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar or an idiot.
Yeah, there's a really nice shopping district in my town and a bunch of people b***hing on the town's subreddit about "fricking NIMBYs" because people are blocking them building frickhuge apartment buildings nearby. But the entire reason its a nice shopping district is that it was an absolute shithole in the 70s until boomers made the effort to buy local and get a LID to pay for street renovations. Now they're mad the boomers who put in the effort aren't moving out so their Seattle friends can shit all over everything.
I appreciate Clarkson highlighting some issues that affect real farmers but he definitely spends too much time focusing on his rich guy exclusive problems.
He's kind of become a homosexual about the animals and "climate change." And it is the ultimate boomer cringe that he has two dogs named "Sansa" and "Arya' - I know Lisa's kids or whoever named them but I cannot imagine anything more gay that naming dogs after GoTslop girlbosses. If I was his neighbor I'd get an XL bully murderline supreme, name it Ramsay, and let nature take it's course.
>Support local businesses >No! Not like that!
Why the frick would I want to support ALDI instead of my local farmers, what kind of fricking argument even is this?
Boomers literally can't fathom valuing anything over than "money" which is just israeli bullshit, it's not real they just print more of it to give to ukraine and israel every other week
>half of those products >he makes none of that on the farm
The frick are you on about? The only things on that image that he couldn't have come from the farm are coffee and pesto.
A lot is provided by the other farms in the area. The high costs from the prestige of the store owner and to help get the farmers more money in a shorter amount of time.
Apple makes cheap products from cheap material and cheap labor but people pay how much for that shit?
What the frick is this comparison supposed to show? That mass produced shit made in China and sold at Aldi is cheaper than locally and privately produced goods? >shockedpikachuface.jpg
My tomatoes which I sell to my neighbors are more expensive than Aldi and Lidl as well, but at least they're tomatoes, not red colored water in solid form grown in the Netherlands.
Also my homebrew beer is at 3.00 EUR per 0.5l bottle and all my neighbors buy it, even if you can get a whole crate for 10.00 EUR at the shop nearby.
As if money is everything.
>the cheapest possible groceries hauled in from across the whole of Europe and filtered through a vast logistics chain
vs. >farm fresh produce from up the road
You guys are also missing how there's no listing of weight or product numbers or anything indicating how much you're actually getting for that price. Just "eggs", "Milk", or "Pork Pie" tells you very little.
Also it's likely complete BS, since even the shittiest, most impure and processed honey here sells for the equivalent of 5 pounds for a ~375ml bottle.
>Honey - 0.75 pounds
That's not honey. I buy true and honest Acacia honey from a local bee farm for 8 eurobucks a kilo. Paying anything bellow 6 would be suspicious
>real produce from an actual farm costs more than mass produced slop made in some assfrick area of europe which is then imported into the UK via some supermarket
no. fricking. way!
also that blended supermarket syrup 'honey' is fricking poison
am i really the only one who wished they'd just quit after top gear? maybe a little youtube here and there would've been a charming retirement. this whole current era of
>buy my beer >buy my gin >vote on the color of the seats of my new car >buy the shirt with the funny slogan >no you should buy my shirt with the funny slogan >or buy both shirts and maybe some gin
it's like they're advertising for eachothers bullshit like how podcasters do and it's soulless through the core.
The Grand Tour was really uneven. Some episodes were just as good as any vintage Top Gear, but some episodes were so bad they were tough to watch. Seamen for example is some of their absolute best work they've ever done while Sand Job was pretty forgettable.
I finally watched Sand Job after I was jonesing for some kino after finishing the first four episodes of Clarkson's Farm 3 and man, parts were fun but it dragged on way too long and the ending was a wet fart
Top gear was always scripted, but it was so funny you did not care that it was.
problem was with the grand tour that because it was not as good that the obvious scripted parts really pulled it all down.
There's a difference between scripted and planned.
The challenges in TG were planned out, they knew what they were going to be doing, where they were going - and had a few obvious scripted scenes sprinkled in sometimes - but everything else was them genuinely fricking about.
I was honestly shocked with how much people praised it and then baffled at how good it really is. Just quality fricking content in every aspect imaginable.
Even my dad is a fan, and he hates the british.
I caught my dad rewatching S2 yesterday night after I left the thread.
Jeremy fricking up one of the machines to a lamp post and the camera cutting to Kaleb with a "what in the frick now" look is just one of the many examples of how incredibly funny this show is by the sheer power of the cast and the skill of the editing. Literally everything just comes together perfectly, this series has no right to be so good.
The episode where Clarkson shows sadness towards the sheep he decides to let go off which cuts to him eating them made us basically choke of laughter.
>*casually mogs every other top gear trio's show in your path* >*casually is the most enjoyable trio member to actually listen to their takes of in your path*
His disassembling show, his cooking show, his show on toys. By and large you can't go wrong with May. Oddly enough Top Gear's kinda the low end for Maykino
i always love to remind how racist as frick the japanese are toward the rest of the world, and how people become confused over it because the media version of japan is very different.
He's a rich hypocrite lefty, lots of them are like this because they don't have to suffer the consequences of their ideology like the rest of us plebs.
Him and Clarkson supporting David Cameron during the brexit voting, making a video together was when I stopped liking May for good.
>"if you knock that loud again I'll throw you out"
the frick? it wasnt even Caleb doing some stupid shit, Charlie just did a normal knock what the frick is wrong with the British?
Some problem you can't fix with just money, like shitty weather. Plus, Clarkson was wasting a lot of money on various schemes that doesn't go anywhere, so.
Is he still moaning about his cafe/shop or is he finally being sensible and opening it in the village where he would actually have planning permission?
Never knew they measured wear on a tractor in hours. Obvious really innit given they do frick all miles. Clever in their own way aren't they, these big eared boys from the farm?
>The pig eating her own children was what gave me pause.
Any of you lads worked on a farm? I did as a lad, I've not eaten pork since
Swine are awful, vicious, spiteful filthy creatures, despite being way, way more intelligent than cattle and sheep you don't see those eating their babies
They have the most fricked up crabs in a bucket mentality I’ve ever seen. They are more obsessed with taking others freedoms away at the cost of their own than they care about their personal freedom. It is bizarre.
I always love reading about American GIs stationed in England during the war. It really showed how pissy and whiny Bongs are when they're around their rich superiors. I don't understand why they didn't adopt a more American mindset, the country would be vastly more wealthy and free than it is today.
Some redditor managed to get all the parking spots in his street removed because he was pissed that his neighbour kept parking in front of his house (there were no designated spaces so you just had to park where you could fit) and then he had the nerve to complain about how his car had been broken into twice by local doctors because he had to park in an abandoned car park next to a crack den on the next street over LMAOOOOO
I love reading the unhinged bizarre british shit that gets posted in the uk subreddits. They are all fricked in the head.
is that succubus woman still in every episode like in s2? s1 was utter kino because it was just caleb and jermy and the woman only showed up 1 or 2 times
I'm very interested in this show, but I feel like I'd be missing some of the humor by now knowing Clarkson at all. Should I just rewatch top gear or is it one of those "you had to be there" things?
If you like Clarksons personality in the later Grand Tour episodes you will like this show. He has mellowed out a lot the last few years and in this farming show he is mostly just vibing except when he argues with Caleb and his ego gets in the way of admitting that he doesn’t really know what he’s doing
just watch the show if you want, top gear is all about the team dynamic and the 2 other aren't there
i'd definitely suggest watching the specials at least, there's the good ones like vietnam and the bizarrokino ones like the patagonia/USA special where they get chased by an angry mob an actually run for their lives
im glad TGT didn't bomb but the first seasons are essentially depreciated. there are some good setpieces like you said the P1 vs bugatti vs. whatever they originally teased on TG, but otherwise it's like the later seasons of TG, just an over produced mess where the trio basically get to have an original take included. the new format where they just do specials when they feel like is much better, even though they still suffer from a feeling of overproduction. like you can just sense the fact theres a crew of 100 and they have to make it look funny and great, and not the feeling of having maybe 10 people in some backwater african shithole and half the episodes just being them trying to get over a terrain obstacle.
It lacks soul like most american tv shows but the segments that are just the trio driving cars and bantering are still kino.
The episode where they drive the RVs in america is one of my favourite modern tv segments together with that episode where they try to make reefs out of cars and keep sinking boats lmao
And that segment where they race through the canadian? woods with boats attached to their cars and jeremy drops his down a mountain
Unless you can't stand the c**t. Then it's awful.

Frick the weather, what about all the homosexualy village laws and beauracracy? How many permits did it take to be a farmer again?
Surely it can't be like that the entire country, nothing would get done otherwise.

You've pretty much just described most of the mid west there, at least in Britain the temps aren't as extreme
Isn't the mid west the agriculture center of the US? It gets that bad over there too?
I can see it happening now.
weather in the midwest is spastic as frick
You're being dramatic. It's "normal" in the midwest just the the east coast. In the Deep South, it's hot and humid. Southwest is arid and can reach temps regularly around 110 in the summers, which is bordering on uninhabitable for me. And the west coast is moderated by the ocean so it's wetter and more mid-temps all around. There ya go.
Midwest can get hot during the summer, or cold during the winter but that's just the nature of having four seasons.

We hand a wind storm a couple years ago that straight up wiped out hundreds of farms and crops. Like just ripping shit out of the ground or scrapping shit bare.
Jesus. I'm glad I live in a country where stuff like this doesn't happen.
So the weather is relatively unstable most of the time? Why did you Americans make that area your food growing center then?
The midwest and heartlands represent a third of a a billion acres of high-quality arable land for growing staple crops like corn, onions, and wheat. Or about 10-15% of all the world's arable land.
>best arable land in the country/world
>also plagued by some of the worst weather around

Tornadoes are localized and a decent warning system and storm shelter makes them manageable. They don't jack up your insurance rates like floods or hurricanes.
The amount of large hail we get is a constant source of stress, though. Big enough to total your car or put holes in your roof. Huge ice chunks that will knock you out cold.
it's by far the best land for it in the whole country

kind of, it was very bizarre
he spends a lot of the show coping for some reason
yes, and it just wasn't funny
the female guide was terrible and actually brought the show from a 6/10 to a 4.5/10 for me
the scenes with her was so boring. She's a "comedian" but all her jokes were "Did you know England occupied India??"
our man in japan got me laughing the hardest i have ever laughed over that stupid tourguide robot
haven't seen the italy one or india one but the show is okay in my books from that alone
Hammond has a show about a car repair shop he started.
sounds comfy, what's it called?
Richard Hammond's Workshop
It's not very imaginative, but who am I to judge?
Repair shop but cars
even if you were born yesterday you can tell who actually works for a living
KINO
>that beautiful Datsun 240Z
>the Renault Alpine GTA/A610 just behind it
jesus
datsuns are a dime a dozen where are you from
A Datsun in that shape is common? God damn.
Argentina. Though, there are some Datsun that look healthy here.
well shit I guess I grew old cause they were around when I was a kid now I guess they're rare
I stand correct my cry for me friend
frick sake no idea why it fricked the price
ohh 🙁 love you mate
jesus frick
keep saving those pesos and looking at facebook market place for datsuns, in the meantime enjoy clarksons farm kino 😀

i re evaluated my entire stance on this man ever since he had that insane take (on that workshop show?) about how owning a fast car is like the base need for any successful man because it's related to the evolutionary basis where faster animals get the females and get to the drinking pond faster or something.
I think Hammond is the only one of the trio that still has a passion for cars.
the reassembler is absolute kino. Its such a shame that such formats are never appreciated by fricking executives because they think viewers are mouthbreathing morons. We will never get another season because of that.
Hammond's Braniac Science Abuse mogged anything Clarkson/May have done
It’s spelled UDDER
Fricking absolutely.
Underrated post.
Hard to imagine that Kaleb didn't come from a farming family and basically learned how to do everything from scratch. Maybe I should have gone into an apprenticeship program instead of uni.
What? No way that's true.
That's even more blackpilling since he already has it made, owns land, trucks, livestock. I legitimately thought he had lots of help from his family to get there. He's such a chad, unbelievable.
I'm serious, it's from an interview with some Aussie news channel. Guy basically ditched school at 18 to start raising chickens and it all grows from there.
>hes only 25 and is already incredibly knowledgeable and successful without even leaving his tiny farming hometown for more than a day
He's the greatest British person I've ever seen
The fricking college thing is an egregious lie. Literally my entire life being told
>you have to go to college to get a good job, if you go to college you'll make loads of money
absolute bullshit, don't send your kids to college bros, get them a heavy equipment operator cert instead and they'll be set for life
because the majority of the pop. is gen x and boomers and that was probably true when they were young when only 10-20% of people went to uni unlike 50% these days
people live in the bubble of their era
i have a cousin that kaleb reminds me of. shes not from a farming family either, just happened to live in farm country. shes one year older than me. got involved with young farmers when she was like 14ish, found work on farms and is now a fully qualified vet, they trained her and paid for her to get the qualifications etc. she makes bank and owns a house with her boyfriend (hes a joiner, got trained in an apprenticeship out of school afaik)
i went to law school and am up to my eyeballs in debt and will continue to be for quite some time. i unironically would rather have done what she did kek
Or its all made up bollocks for the telly.
and if you think the weather is bad just wait until you meet the english
Even though it's repetitive because it happens multiple times a season, it's always funny when Jeremy comes up with a straightforward idea like building a parking lot and then has to listen to Charlie or someone spend 10 minutes listing all the reasons it's illegal/against the rules. The red tape in Britain really does seem insane, though I don't have a point of comparison.
>The red tape in Britain really does seem insane, though I don't have a point of comparison.
it's hell everywhere. in some places (britain) it is even worse.
I know in America its a hundred times easier to put in a gravel driveway/parking lot than asphalt, just from permitting alone.
I always thought do you have a loicence for that was just an exaggeration for laugh but reality is even worse.
>They had to send for an adjudicator from London to try and fight for the right to build stuff on their own land
NIMBY boomers in the UK want to stop anything from being built anywhere, so probably anything they want to do is blocked for some environmental reason
>nimby
council house communists
We could triple our onshore wind production easily if we hadn't banned it
>england isn't horrible enough, here's how we can make it worse:
Tarmac the fields and build houses everywhere!
the real trick is to know people who have influence over planning permission, that's how most the property developers who have been raping all the traditional period housing by turning them in flat conversions have been doing it
you don't have have to be rich and influential or anything, just don't be an outsider, know some people in the circle and well-connected locals breeze through the process
>spend 10 minutes listing all the reasons it's illegal/against the rules
But that's mostly because his farm is in the Cotswolds which is classified as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which is English for "Everything stays as it is, you're not allowed to change anything here!"
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_Outstanding_Natural_Beauty
But you can import millions of pakis and arabs. Funny how displacing the native population is still completely legal
>https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_Outstanding_Natural_Beauty
This just looks like western Pennsylvania but with more stone buildings.

You're an idiot. He can obviously speak properly when he really wants to. But his usual slang is what you see on TV. Slang is not an act.
essential viewing
somehow with subs it makes perfect sense
He tried to warn us. We didn't listen.

Wait, people legitimately can't understand what he is saying? I thought it was just a joke like the one from Hot Fuzz (I could also understand those guys).
I'm only watching this when its all out (on torrents) so I can binge watch for 8 hours as god intended
>own a 1000 acre farm
>sudden revelation that he should use more than half of the land
genius!
In the Cotswolds you're paid by the government to keep the farmland with natural growth.
Deciding to use them as farmland and removing the natural growth means you won't get government bux anymore.
Surprised Kaleb or Jeremy didn't drive the the digger to the pond when they were trying to fix the dam
The NIMBY regulation nerds aren't bad. You don't want corporations dumping toxic waste into a fricking pond do you?
And they had a right to be turned off by his idea to open a shop, it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos. Clogged entire roads up all just to be on tv for a millisecond.
>it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos
commerce, the cornerstone of prosperity. yeah, better ban that.
It's a stupid gimmick. He actually visits a shop in the same area that sells the same shit so it's just negatively effecting local commerce if anything. Especially since he subsidizes it all because he's rich.
>i need some potatoes, i know, i better get in my car and drive thirty miles to see jeremy clarkson
Honest question, were you dropped on the head?
See, I would have been fine with it if they refused him permission only because they wanted to protect the town and the locals, but the majority of them seems to be refusing the permit because they have some sort of grudge against Clarkson.
I'm sure they're getting pushed by the locals to do it. "That Clarkson is ruining our town and you're doing nothing about it! I'm calling the news about how our council members are ruining the citizens lives!"
Charlie did say that there's only one part of the town left that still like him, but even then, some of the comments they made during the permit hearing seemed very personal.
And to be clear, I do agree with some of the demands they raised, like all the produce has to come from within a certain distance of the town, but the rest are just insanely petty.
That's a whole different situation though. One is local red tape stopping a man trying to start/run his business while the other is the government being moronic and forcing the burden on the population.
>all the produce has to come from within a certain distance of the town
That he can't sell a book he wrote while at his house on the farm is the biggest joke about this one.
Yeah, the book and shirt restriction are a bit daft since I doubt the town even have any facility to produce those in large number, but the point about produce is still valid though.
Maybe. Seems kinda dumb to lie about something that can be easily check for though.
As was noted in the second season, one of the chief opponents spearheading opposition doesn't even live or farm in the area. He's some rich art restorer living in a fancy flat in the middle of London, who bought a house in the village as a vacation home and now doesn't want his pristine skies ruined by lights from a farm shop or his town to get tourist commerce.
It's not even an actual local, just a rich Londoner b***hing.
> the shot and edited YV makes it appear that [protag] is reason why [villian] does [bad thing to protag]
How moronic are you?
Problem is that instead of engaging Clarkson in a discussion and seeing if there's a win/win solution or finding areas where they can come to a compromise, they dug their heels in and made it an antagonistic relationship.
they offered him a slot in town for his restaurant. he rather fricked over the other famers than accepting this. who is the frickhead now?
You for getting pissy over some slightly off color joke he made in the past or whatever gave you a mad on about him.
It's like in Vancouver people always love to shit on the NIMBY boomers "waaah why won't they allow commie blocks to get built right beside their suburbs" yeah the housing market is fricked but I'm not going to blame them for not wanting poverty towers to pop up everywhere.
How about we stop importing half a million poos every year but the little fricking cowards would rather hate on boomers because that's perfectly acceptable.
>it brought hundreds of dumbass normies buying potatos. Clogged entire roads up all just to be on tv for a millisecond.
Yeah but when he tried to come up with a way to alleviate the problem (by building a parking lot) they told him he couldn't do that either. I do think it was negatively affecting the town at first, but I don't know why they wouldn't work with him to fix it and maybe bring more tourism to the town/area in general in the process.
Little towns like that don't want tourism, they want people to frick off.
The neighbouring farmers seemed to be really in with the restaurant plan that was also wienerblocked.
Clarkson defs made mistakes, but all the evidence we have is that he's made loads of effort to create compromise and the council just wont because they want to protect their holiday homes.
I've heard more than once that most of the people on these councils don't even live in the area, or only recently retired there after making money in the city all their lives.
The fact thats its Clarkson's tv show and thats where most of the info is framed, theres obviously some bias, but just point to any evidence that the council has any interests in what the locals want.
be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
>just point to any evidence that the council has any interests in what the locals want
the issue was discussed in a public meeting, shown in the last series, where the public voiced opposition
>be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
I literally pointed that out. You didn't actually give me any evidence though, which is what I was asking for. I am being reasonable.
>be reasonable. you watched a fictionalised entertainment show which doesn't even come close to an honest depiction
okay
>the issue was discussed in a public meeting, shown in the last series, where the public voiced opposition
that wasn't an honest depiction, according to you, so therefore not evidence
The boomers and pensioners maybe. Young people growing up want jobs and ways to provide for themselves, and bringing tourism and commerce to the town will do that.
Bro we had a woman taken to court because she painted her front door, British nimby's are insane, it doesn't just apply to infrastructure projects
Youve obviously never heard of HOAs before. US nimby boomers are equally insane.
There's a middle ground for everything. Like how Karen went from a term for "white woman flipping out at black kids playing in the park" to "white woman upset the restaraunt burned her meal and automatically charged a tip." HOAs are nasty, but a lot of complaints I've seen about NIMBYS are sour grapes from people who live in a dogshit area that gets worse because no one who lives there fights to keep things nice.
Regulations hurt small buisness mote than they hurt big buisness.
Big Buisness loves Big Government, anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar or an idiot.
I had three opportunities to spell business right and whiffed it.
I will show myself out.
Yeah, there's a really nice shopping district in my town and a bunch of people b***hing on the town's subreddit about "fricking NIMBYs" because people are blocking them building frickhuge apartment buildings nearby. But the entire reason its a nice shopping district is that it was an absolute shithole in the 70s until boomers made the effort to buy local and get a LID to pay for street renovations. Now they're mad the boomers who put in the effort aren't moving out so their Seattle friends can shit all over everything.
people like you should be shot
I love that show like you wouldn't believe.
Clarkson loves the red tape, which is why him and all the london yuppies have been buying up the cotswolds for decades.
He doesn't want Holland and barret new builds spoiling his view.
Hes a bloated hypocrite
>you need permission to install a carpark or restaurant in the middle of agricultural land
wow
this is fascism manifest
the red tape NIMBY little englander gammons really have gone too far this time
I appreciate Clarkson highlighting some issues that affect real farmers but he definitely spends too much time focusing on his rich guy exclusive problems.
Who's permission do I need to make a farmer's market on my farm?
Fun fact, over the hedge from the farm shop is a caravan parking camp
He's kind of become a homosexual about the animals and "climate change." And it is the ultimate boomer cringe that he has two dogs named "Sansa" and "Arya' - I know Lisa's kids or whoever named them but I cannot imagine anything more gay that naming dogs after GoTslop girlbosses. If I was his neighbor I'd get an XL bully murderline supreme, name it Ramsay, and let nature take it's course.
who could have guessed someone would start caring about climate change when it actually affects them
Oh my God it snowed in March! MARCH?! That only happens, like every other fricking year since forever. Save us Klaus Schwab!
He was being sarcastic when mentioning climate change you mong.
>it's a pig farming episode
>council shut down his restaurant
>decides to be a pig farmer
>beware the man who keeps a pig farm
Is this Clarkson's end game?
we can only hope thats how the fiction story ends
why did he focken do eet?
>pig farmer
Start an imageboard
The show where james may goes to japan as pretty good too.
I prefered Clarkson Island
>entire village shitted up by redditors driving in so can take a picture of them basedfacing with £8 pesto
I support the council
There's 0 chance in hell honey costs 75p. Is it some sort of a syrup with 1% honey in it?
The pesto too. For $1 it must be mostly sawdust and peanut shells
>Support local businesses
>No! Not like that!
Why the frick would I want to support ALDI instead of my local farmers, what kind of fricking argument even is this?
Boomers literally can't fathom valuing anything over than "money" which is just israeli bullshit, it's not real they just print more of it to give to ukraine and israel every other week
what the frick is the point of half of those products
he makes none of that on the farm
just shipping junk in and then up selling it what a gay
>half of those products
>he makes none of that on the farm
The frick are you on about? The only things on that image that he couldn't have come from the farm are coffee and pesto.
pesto would be one of the easiest things to make from a farm you fricking moron, he still didnt make any of it. its all shipped in guaranteed.
>its all shipped in guaranteed.
Cynicism isn't wisdom.
If you watched season 2 he teamed up with a bunch of local farmers and producers to stock his farmers market
A lot is provided by the other farms in the area. The high costs from the prestige of the store owner and to help get the farmers more money in a shorter amount of time.
Apple makes cheap products from cheap material and cheap labor but people pay how much for that shit?
75p for fricking honey? That ain't genuine honey.
>capitalism is..LE BAD!
kys, troony
I'm pretty sure he and other farmers make those products, it's not really comparable to the mass produced Aldi offerings
What the frick is this comparison supposed to show? That mass produced shit made in China and sold at Aldi is cheaper than locally and privately produced goods?
>shockedpikachuface.jpg
My tomatoes which I sell to my neighbors are more expensive than Aldi and Lidl as well, but at least they're tomatoes, not red colored water in solid form grown in the Netherlands.
Also my homebrew beer is at 3.00 EUR per 0.5l bottle and all my neighbors buy it, even if you can get a whole crate for 10.00 EUR at the shop nearby.
As if money is everything.
they grow coffee and cashews in england?
>the cheapest possible groceries hauled in from across the whole of Europe and filtered through a vast logistics chain
vs.
>farm fresh produce from up the road
So milk prices are the same?
nice
>aldi cheaper than farm shop artisan produce
journalism
You guys are also missing how there's no listing of weight or product numbers or anything indicating how much you're actually getting for that price. Just "eggs", "Milk", or "Pork Pie" tells you very little.
Also it's likely complete BS, since even the shittiest, most impure and processed honey here sells for the equivalent of 5 pounds for a ~375ml bottle.
>Honey - 0.75 pounds
That's not honey. I buy true and honest Acacia honey from a local bee farm for 8 eurobucks a kilo. Paying anything bellow 6 would be suspicious
>real produce from an actual farm costs more than mass produced slop made in some assfrick area of europe which is then imported into the UK via some supermarket
no. fricking. way!
also that blended supermarket syrup 'honey' is fricking poison
RIP Baroness 🙁
it's sad
I have no empathy for people in real life but I will tear up at total pigger death on TV

The grand tour was not great, but I enjoyed Clarkson's Farm and James May in Japan
The Grand Tour was really uneven. Some episodes were just as good as any vintage Top Gear, but some episodes were so bad they were tough to watch. Seamen for example is some of their absolute best work they've ever done while Sand Job was pretty forgettable.
I finally watched Sand Job after I was jonesing for some kino after finishing the first four episodes of Clarkson's Farm 3 and man, parts were fun but it dragged on way too long and the ending was a wet fart
Top gear was always scripted, but it was so funny you did not care that it was.
problem was with the grand tour that because it was not as good that the obvious scripted parts really pulled it all down.
There's a difference between scripted and planned.
The challenges in TG were planned out, they knew what they were going to be doing, where they were going - and had a few obvious scripted scenes sprinkled in sometimes - but everything else was them genuinely fricking about.
when does the second set of episodes go up?
Tomorrow
it says "new episode thursday"
lol liars BTFO
prime video always drops a few hours early for some reason, but yeah its up
not today
Tomorrow night.
Our lives will change.
Tomorrow night.
Will be entertained.
It's Clarkson's Farm - what a sight.
Tomorrow night.
Remainder of S3 is up now.
>no torrent yet
I was honestly shocked with how much people praised it and then baffled at how good it really is. Just quality fricking content in every aspect imaginable.
Even my dad is a fan, and he hates the british.
I also watched it with my dad.
It's not easy to find stuff that we both enjoy, but the Farm does work nicely.
I caught my dad rewatching S2 yesterday night after I left the thread.
Jeremy fricking up one of the machines to a lamp post and the camera cutting to Kaleb with a "what in the frick now" look is just one of the many examples of how incredibly funny this show is by the sheer power of the cast and the skill of the editing. Literally everything just comes together perfectly, this series has no right to be so good.
The episode where Clarkson shows sadness towards the sheep he decides to let go off which cuts to him eating them made us basically choke of laughter.
udder kino
>*casually mogs every other top gear trio's show in your path*
>*casually is the most enjoyable trio member to actually listen to their takes of in your path*
how did he do it
To be fair his Italy and India shows weren't as good, but it is true that most anything James touches turns to at least acceptably kino
his people's car was kino
also when he starts arguing with the production crew randomly in the japan one is kino.
what else is kino from him?
>I've had enough of this! I'm having an artistic tantrum!
His disassembling show, his cooking show, his show on toys. By and large you can't go wrong with May. Oddly enough Top Gear's kinda the low end for Maykino

>wow so safe and nice
>I really like my Britain multicultural

i always love to remind how racist as frick the japanese are toward the rest of the world, and how people become confused over it because the media version of japan is very different.
rightfully so, other people would ruin japan
europe and the US are experiencing ruin now
liberal whites hate themselves & their country
He's a rich hypocrite lefty, lots of them are like this because they don't have to suffer the consequences of their ideology like the rest of us plebs.
Him and Clarkson supporting David Cameron during the brexit voting, making a video together was when I stopped liking May for good.
who asked?
Who asked who asked?
He did.
I did
The james may stuff where he just puts together a bike or a radio and he talks about random shit is some of the best stuff he ever did.
They also cut like half the material they shot because it was too much for a the episode format they had.
HEY BIM
I thought Bim was finally going to keel over with how hard he was laughing.

Why can't someone with this much cash create a viable farm?
Some problem you can't fix with just money, like shitty weather. Plus, Clarkson was wasting a lot of money on various schemes that doesn't go anywhere, so.
>I don't get it
>Why can't someone with this much cash create a viable TV series?

Watching this in japanese for language practice has been both hilarious and educational
The farmers should just unionize. French and polish farmers are spraying feces on government buildings. English are just spineless moaners.
did you just say the u word?
Government will just pass a law saying farmers can't strike, just like they did for military, police, train drivers, etc.
Everyone in bongistan are spineless moaners that demand a loicense for everything and are incapable of understanding the concept of freedom
They have the most fricked up crabs in a bucket mentality I’ve ever seen. They are more obsessed with taking others freedoms away at the cost of their own than they care about their personal freedom. It is bizarre.
I always love reading about American GIs stationed in England during the war. It really showed how pissy and whiny Bongs are when they're around their rich superiors. I don't understand why they didn't adopt a more American mindset, the country would be vastly more wealthy and free than it is today.
Some redditor managed to get all the parking spots in his street removed because he was pissed that his neighbour kept parking in front of his house (there were no designated spaces so you just had to park where you could fit) and then he had the nerve to complain about how his car had been broken into twice by local doctors because he had to park in an abandoned car park next to a crack den on the next street over LMAOOOOO
I love reading the unhinged bizarre british shit that gets posted in the uk subreddits. They are all fricked in the head.
That's what thousands of years of inbreeding will do
American GIs in Straya mogged all the locals so badly it was causing riots

he didnt even knock that hard. I would've understood if they banged the shit out of the door with the knocker. That doorman needs to frick off.
What time does this release today? In british time?

sadly yes and shes the only one in the show who is obviously reading from a pre-prepared script.

I'm very interested in this show, but I feel like I'd be missing some of the humor by now knowing Clarkson at all. Should I just rewatch top gear or is it one of those "you had to be there" things?
If you like Clarksons personality in the later Grand Tour episodes you will like this show. He has mellowed out a lot the last few years and in this farming show he is mostly just vibing except when he argues with Caleb and his ego gets in the way of admitting that he doesn’t really know what he’s doing
just watch the show if you want, top gear is all about the team dynamic and the 2 other aren't there
i'd definitely suggest watching the specials at least, there's the good ones like vietnam and the bizarrokino ones like the patagonia/USA special where they get chased by an angry mob an actually run for their lives
The challenge episodes are also peak kino, and the camping episodes and the worst car Clarkson movie.
The grand tour also has a lot of great segments if you know what to look for and just skip the boring scripted shit and track bits
im glad TGT didn't bomb but the first seasons are essentially depreciated. there are some good setpieces like you said the P1 vs bugatti vs. whatever they originally teased on TG, but otherwise it's like the later seasons of TG, just an over produced mess where the trio basically get to have an original take included. the new format where they just do specials when they feel like is much better, even though they still suffer from a feeling of overproduction. like you can just sense the fact theres a crew of 100 and they have to make it look funny and great, and not the feeling of having maybe 10 people in some backwater african shithole and half the episodes just being them trying to get over a terrain obstacle.

It lacks soul like most american tv shows but the segments that are just the trio driving cars and bantering are still kino.
The episode where they drive the RVs in america is one of my favourite modern tv segments together with that episode where they try to make reefs out of cars and keep sinking boats lmao
And that segment where they race through the canadian? woods with boats attached to their cars and jeremy drops his down a mountain
