Amazon Prime Video are said to have ordered another helping of the former 'Top Gear' host's programme, in which he attempts to run a farm in the countryside, after the first series rated so highly on the streaming service.

A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre TV column: "Jeremy is Amazon’s golden boy and a new series is already in the pipeline.

"It’s rated five stars on Amazon and has a 9.3 rating on IMDB, which is practically unheard of.

"It means Jeremy’s fellow farmers Kaleb, ‘Cheerful’ Charlie and Gerald will all be in front of cameras on the farm again."

It comes after the 61-year-old star said he would make another series "in a heartbeat".

He told LADbible: "I'd do it in a heartbeat, because I'm carrying on farming, and I've got some really good ideas that I think would make another series - but that's up to Amazon.

"If people enjoy the first one they'll commission a second.

"They tend not to be emotional about this, Amazon, they just look at the figures, and then if they're good enough you get a second series, and if they're not you don't."

The 'Grand Tour' co-host previously admitted he has been "amazed" by the positive reaction to 'Clarkson's Farm'.

He wrote on Twitter: "I'm genuinely amazed at the response to Clarkson's Farm.

"Thank you all so much for your kind words."

Jeremy - who has been helped by a local farmer named Caleb and his girlfriend Lisa Hogan - previously revealed he "drank [himself] silly" after spending lockdown on his farm.

He explained: "[Caleb] doesn’t drink really so I have to take up his slack. 12 months, Lisa and I have drank ourselves silly.

"When you’re farming one of the joys is the sun going down and leaning on a fence and looking at your sheep or your crops or watch the changing of the seasons.

"So has it made me fitter? No. And the other thing about farming is how automated it is, you never have to actually walk anywhere, you just drive everywhere it’s fantastic.

"I’m the unfittest I’ve ever been."
