I prefer to watch a farming programme than a soap or quiz show any day.
Jeremy Clarksons farm does reveal problems the farming community faces. It does place emphasis on the problems he faces with the local town planners.
They block every proposal he puts forward it's not very professional more personal.
Clarkson caused himself a lot of problems, maybe deliberately for dramatic effect, planning regulations are a fact of life, and if you are sensible will not cause major problems. However, if you upset the local residents it can become very difficult, if locals oppose a project usually planners will refuse permission. Not so much of a problem for a large developer he will appeal, for a modest development it’s unaffordable.
If Clarkson wanted a Restaurant he has plenty of money, he should have bought a local pub and developed that, it’s a wealthy area and plenty of pubs have closed in recent years.
Maybe that will feature in the next series Clarkson pub catastrophes.
