The future of Clarkson’s Farm has been revealed after presenter Jeremy shared harrowing details about his life-saving surgery. 

The documentary series, which shows Jeremy Clarkson’s new life running his Cotswolds farm, first aired in 2021 and was renewed for a fifth season in November. 

But star Jeremy was left ‘days from death’ around the time of the show’s renewal after having two stents fitted during an emergency heart operation to save his life.

The presenter, 65, has now shed light on whether the fifth series of Clarkson’s Farm will be its last amid his health concerns.   

Speaking to The Sunday Times, Jeremy said: ‘I’d do a sixth if there was a reason for doing it, like a bloody good story. 

‘But if, say, my back turns out to be cancerous then I wouldn’t.’

He added: ‘Whatever happens we’ll definitely take a short break as the crews are all worn out. 

‘We’ve been filming here two or three days a week, every week, for five years. Everybody could do with a rest.’ 

Earlier this year Jeremy shared a health update after his major heart surgery while filming Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, Jeremy commented on his new routine.

He said: ‘My phone flashed up this morning saying: ‘you are taking far fewer steps this week than last’.

‘I thought, “yeah I would be as I am sitting here”. It also says you are eating far fewer sausages.

‘I just sit here and eat celery. I am feeling better on it. I do feel very well.’

Jeremy first opened up about the experience in October last year after he had the life-saving operation.

The former Top Gear host revealed he started to feel unwell after swimming in the Indian Ocean and later found it difficult to climb a flight of stairs.

The TV presenter, 65, had two stents fitted during the surgery and was warned to change his diet by doctors after they discovered two vital arteries were blocked

Speaking to The Sunday Times, Jeremy said: ‘I’d do a sixth if there was a reason for doing it, like a bloody good story’ 

Jeremy wrote in his column in The Sunday Times how he felt ‘mostly ᴅᴇᴀᴅ’ after returning to the beach after the short swim.

He spent the rest of his break on a tropical island eating cheese and drinking wine. 

But Jeremy returned to Britain and a ‘sudden deterioration began to gather pace’ with him feeling the range of worrying symptoms previously mentioned.

When he was was loading 30 pigs onto a ‘slaughterhouse school bus’ that he noticed pins and needles in his arm.

He told The Sun at the time: ‘I’m very grateful to everyone who sent supportive messages but I’m fine. 

‘I just have to not do any manual labour or dishwasher emptying for the next four years. At least I think that’s what the doctor said.’

He then went to hospital, where a heart attack was ruled out after he had an electrocardiogram (ECG), blood tests and X-rays.

He said he then went to an operating theatre, after further checks, and doctors said he was perhaps ‘days away’ from death.

Once there he was fitted with a stent to his hold his arteries open, to improve blood flow to his heart and relieve his chest pain.

Jeremy was rushed to hospital when he began feeling symptoms of clamminess, chest тιԍнтness and pins and needles in his left arm 

A stent is a wire mesh tube that props open arteries. To open the narrowed artery, the surgeon may perform what’s known as an angioplasty. 

This involves making a small incision in a patient’s arm or leg, through which a wire with an attached deflated balloon is thread through up to the coronary arteries

Describing what he called the ‘wearisome effects of growing old’, he said: ‘It seems that of the arteries feeding my heart with nourishing blood, one was completely blocked and the second of three was heading that way.’

He said a stent, which can save lives and stop future heart attacks through improving blood flow to the heart, was fitted in around two hours.

Jeremy said: ‘It wasn’t especially painful. Just odd,’ and added that he has been thinking: ‘Crikey, that was close.’
