Clarksons Farm Season Five: Health Scare and Trailer!

is given a sobering health update by doctors after admitting himself to hospital in a first look at the forthcoming fifth series of . 

Streaming giant Amazon Prime has confirmed the latest series fifth will premiere on June 3, with episodes one to four available that day, followed by five and six on June 10, and episodes seven and eight on June 17. 

A first trailer was , with Clarkson, 66, reflecting on his own mortality after being warned to take a break by concerned doctors. 

The TV personality had previously claimed he was 'days from death' after falling ill with excruciating chest pains at his Cotswolds home in 2024. 

He was subsequently rushed to nearby John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford by ambulance, where doctors discovered one of his arteries was 'completely blocked.' 

Discussing the unsettling incident with Diddly Squat farmhand in Monday's trailer, Clarkson said:  'You’ve got three arteries in your heart to keep it pumping, my heart was not getting any blood.' 

Clarkson also admits his "doctor wants him to stop talking, and Amazon want him to stop talking" - but discussions about health appear to be the least of his concerns as he tackles a new driverless tractor and an invasion of travellers at his local pub. 

Intrigued by his employer's expensive new machinery, Kaleb tells him: 'That's basically taking my job.' 

But moments later, he has the last laugh as the state-of-the-art tractor breaks down in the middle of a field. 

'That went well,' he quips, as a dismayed Clarkson is left to ponder the problem. 

Clarkson also introduces his new flock of 'Easy Care' sheep to Kaleb, prompting the reply: 'No sheep is easy to care for.'

Moments later, Kaleb is proved right as the pair struggle to take control of the animals in chaotic scenes at Diddly Squat Farm. 

The farmhand, a household name thanks to his regular appearances on the show, is later told his wife-to-be Kaya is in labour, but stuns Clarkson by opting to finish ploughing a field before joining her in hospital. 

'S***, you've gotta go!' Clarkson urges him via walkie-talkie. 

'No, not yet, I'll finish this field quickly,' Kaleb tells him, prompting an astonished Clarkson to look up at the camera inside his tractor and ask: 'You did hear that?' 

Elsewhere there are concerns away from the farm, with Clarkson's favoured watering hole The Farmer's Dog suffering a spate of issues - among them the arrival of travellers. 

An official press release states: 'The new series of Clarkson's Farm  leaving him under strict doctors' orders to take it easy. But rest isn't an option. 

'A new flock of Easy Care sheep arrives to help lighten the load, however the pub's ongoing issues, its first festive season to navigate, and a government budget that has sent shockwaves through the UK farming community makes slowing down impossible.  

'A visit to the UK's biggest agricultural expo inspires him to take the farm hi-tech, resulting in a baffled Kaleb taking his first journey abroad - a road trip to the Netherlands - where cutting-edge farms seal the deal and the rise of the machines begins.

'Back at Diddly Squat, fields are scanned with lasers and robot tractors take charge, as Clarkson's Farm shows what the future of farming could look like, if that future was run by an impatient 65-year-old and his antagonistic young farm manager. 

'In the climactic episodes, things turn dark as bad luck strikes from every direction, causing massive upset and tension in every way possible.'
