The fourth season of Clarkson’s Farm on Prime Video follows Jeremy Clarkson as he attempts to launch his new pub, The Farmer’s Dog. The final episode chronicles a series of chaotic moments that unfolded mere minutes before the grand opening, leaving Clarkson visibly stunned.
As Jeremy and Kaleb added the final touches to the pub’s décor, Charlie Ireland arrived with unsettling news. Jeremy recalled, “We were just hanging up the last bits when Charlie came in with a rather alarming observation.” It quickly emerged that no one had set the prices for the menu—an essential detail with only 40 minutes to go before opening.
“What about the prices? What are we charging?” Charlie asked, clearly worried.
“Oh, have we not done that yet?” Jeremy responded, his expression blank. “No, nobody has,” Charlie confirmed.
Exasperated, Jeremy muttered, “Oh for f***s sake.”
While Charlie rushed to finalize the pricing, Jeremy began noticing more problems—from unattractive bar stools to piles of abandoned rubbish. When Charlie approached Jeremy to discuss the price list, Jeremy, overwhelmed, walked away.
“Really?!” Charlie exclaimed, stunned by Jeremy’s reaction.
Jeremy explained, “I don’t understand money. I’m just here to spend it, Charlie, that’s all.”
The opening woes didn’t stop there. Equipment glitches in the kitchen caused delays in food service, prompting Jeremy to retreat to another room, struggling to handle the stress.
Adding to the chaos, Jeremy revealed during a debrief that three staff members had quit after just one day of opening—a telling sign of the turmoil backstage.
Concerned by the mounting issues, Charlie confronted Jeremy about “not listening” to advice. Yet Jeremy admitted, “Sorry, I was going to say I’m multitasking, but I’m simply not listening to you.”
Charlie replied, “I didn’t think I’d have to say ‘you’re not listening to me, are you?’ but the answer was clear.”
Further complications arose when pub experts assessed the building and declared it unfit for purpose. There was no designated staff room or toilets, and insufficient food prepared for the overwhelming number of visitors.
Despite the rocky start, The Farmer’s Dog has continued to operate, with most teething problems likely resolved as the season closes.
