Jeremy Clarkson has given an update on whether his popular Amazon Prime series will continue after his partial win over Diddly Squat Farm changes.
The veteran TV presenter, 62, has won an army of fans in recent years following his hit Prime Video series 'Clarkson's Farm', which sees him attempt to run his 1,000 acre farm in Chadlington in the Cotswold.
He is not on his own, with able farmworker Kaleb Cooper as Jeremy learns the ropes at his Diddly Squat Farm.
The docuseries has already had two seasons, with the second of those - which came out in February earlier this year - breaking viewing records on the streaming platform.

He subsequently apologised more than a month after the now-deleted column was pushed with a lengthy statement shared on his Instagram page on January 16.
The former Top Gear host said he "really is sorry" for what he said – all the way "from the balls of my feet to the follicles on my head".
But it appears season three is on the cards but fans will have to wait a little while longer after Jeremy confirmed the news when commenting on a fan page's post.
Jeremy partially won his appeal against local council about changes to Diddly Squat Farm (PA)The post, which read: "Who's excited" regarding a third season, prompted the response from Jeremy.
He wrote: "We actually won’t finish filming it till October. There’s something we are trying which won’t be resolved till then. So it’s a while off yet."
The news comes after he partially won his appeal against local council about changes to his land.
West Oxfordshire District Council hit out at his plans to open a restaurant and plans to extend the car park at Diddly Squat, which also has a cafe and farm shop.
The Planning Inspectorate granted permission for the extension and changes to use of the land but did not allow for the addition of a restaurant.
Inspector RJ Perrins compiled a report describing the farm as a 'victim of its own success' (Tom Wren / SWNS)Inspector RJ Perrins compiled a report describing the farm as a "victim of its own success" and the site could not cope with parking demand.
He wrote: "I am in no doubt that this has caused a huge inconvenience for those who live nearby.

"It was clear to me that many people visiting on the day of my final site visit had no regard to the proper use of the highway... I am not surprised, as heard in evidence, that tensions have run high between some of those living locally and some visitors to the farm shop."
Mr Perrins added that factors surrounding the restaurant, including signage, toilet facilities and catering van had a "deleterious effect upon the character and appearance" of the area.
He added that the shop and cafe did contribute to local economy and employment. The permission has been granted for three years.
