The Clarkson’s Farm star reveals suspicious activity, including a van with cloned plates and a drone scouting his property, prompting a police investigation.
London, March 8 – Jeremy Clarkson has revealed that his Diddly Squat Farm, the focus of the hit Amazon Prime series Clarkson’s Farm, has been targeted by potential burglars, with police confirming suspicious activity around the property.
Writing in The Sun, Clarkson detailed an unsettling series of incidents, starting with a van carrying five unknown men pulling into his farmyard two weeks ago.
“They checked out the security cameras and asked Kaleb how many dogs were on the site,” Clarkson wrote.
When reported to police, Clarkson was told the vehicle’s number plates had been cloned, raising further concerns.
The situation escalated last week when a drone was spotted flying over the farm on two separate nights, surveying the house and yard.
“The police say it does look like we are being recced by wrong ’uns and that we should ensure our security systems are up to scratch,” Clarkson added.
Clarkson’s Unexpected Security System
Despite the troubling events, Clarkson remains confident in his farm’s most effective burglar deterrent—his dozen guinea fowls.
“Anyone who tries to burgle us is going to have their eardrums turned into a blood-speckled gooey mush,” he quipped, describing the deafening noise the birds make, likening it to a concert by The Who or NASA engines revving up.
Clarkson’s Farm Continues to Thrive
While Clarkson deals with security concerns, Clarkson’s Farm remains a global success on Amazon Prime. The fourth season is set to premiere this May, and a fifth season has already been greenlit.
Clarkson, who has reinvented himself as an advocate for British farmers, has recently spoken out against government plans to impose inheritance tax on landowners, calling for stronger support for struggling farms.
With burglars circling and Clarkson’s Farm continuing to dominate streaming charts, it’s clear that life on Diddly Squat Farm is never dull.
