Jeremy Clarkson ‘devastated’ after Diddly Squat farm suffers TB outbreak
Jeremy Clarkson’s Diddly Squat Farm suffers TB outbreak
- Jeremy Clarkson has announced a "devastating" outbreak of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) at his Diddly Squat farm in Oxfordshire.
- The disease, which necessitates the culling of infected cattle, has affected his herd, with one pregnant cow and inconclusive tests for his bull, Endgame.
- Bovine TB is a major challenge for the farming industry, leading to thousands of cattle deaths annually and sparking ongoing debate over the effectiveness of badger culling.
- This bTB outbreak is the latest in a series of setbacks for Diddly Squat, following climate-driven disasters and a poor harvest in 2025.
- Clarkson's popular Prime Video series, Clarkson's Farm, documents his farming journey and the challenges faced, with a potential fifth season expected in May 2026.
