Farming in Australia

In the new series, the Chipping Norton contractor will travel to Australia to see how farmers work across thousands of acres in one of the world's largest agricultural markets.

Kaleb said: "I spend most of my time with the most travelled man in the world, so I got brave and booked my first ever flight to see what all the fuss was about.听

"Australia here I come! And Australia, you'll be gaining a new farmer for a couple of months as I discover if I can make my farming contracting business go international."

During the trip, Kaleb, who rarely leaves his own village let alone country, will meet local farmers and experience an entirely different culture, while continuing to showcase the personality and humour which shot him to fame as Jeremy Clarkson's right-hand man on Clarkson's Farm.听

Tara Erer, head of Northern Europe originals at Amazon MGM Studios, said: "Kaleb Cooper has won our hearts with his no-nonsense farming wisdom and unmistakable charm.

"Seeing him swap his beloved Chipping Norton for the vast Australian outback promises brilliant entertainment as he encounters farming on a whole new scale."

Filming is due to begin this autumn, with听Kaleb: Down Under听set to stream on Prime Video once complete.听

Kaleb will also return alongside Jeremy Clarkson and the whole team at Diddly Squat in Clarkson's Farm series five, which filming has just concluded for.
