Jeremy Clarkson told to cut back “a lot” of TV and farm work after heart scare

Jeremy Clarkson told to cut back “a lot” of TV and farm work after heart scare

As someone who has followed Jeremy Clarkson‘s career closely, I can’t help but feel a mix of concern and admiration. His recent health scare was a stark reminder that we all need to prioritize our well-being. However, his resilience and determination are truly inspiring. Despite the doctor’s orders to cut back, it seems Jeremy is not one to slow down easily. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s already thinking about farming monkeys for his next TV show! After all, who could forget his unique take on exotic animals in Top Gear?


Jeremy Clarkson’s shared that his physician suggested he should decrease the number of TV projects he’s involved with, instead focusing on managing Diddly Squat Farm.

Later on, we learned that it happened after he disclosed this month about having a heart operation due to an unexpected decline in his health condition.

In his recent article for The Sun, Clarkson mentioned: “I pen three columns for newspapers each week, I manage a brewery, a pub, a store, I host Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, oversee a farm, create a TV show based on that, and this week, my latest book was released.

He mentioned that his physician suggested he significantly reduce certain habits for the sake of his wellbeing, leading him to ponder over new hobbies and a healthier diet. (Former Top Gear host)

To put it in my own words, Clarkson shared that he plans to disregard his doctor’s advice for a slower pace in his career. His reasoning is that if he doesn’t keep working, he would simply spend his days at home, becoming stagnant or deteriorating.

Recently, it came to light that Clarkson was admitted to John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. They ruled out a heart attack, but instead, he received a stent.

In that moment, he penned an article for The Sunday Times, and a couple of hours later, still at home, he was reflecting and composing these words, with a sense of relief as he thought, “Wow, that was a near miss.

Currently, I’m grateful for the remarkable team at John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford and their advanced equipment. They’ve played a significant role in my current state, allowing me to ponder the taste of water and explore ways to enhance the flavor of celery.

With The Grand Tour now having come to a close, that’s one less show on Clarkson’s schedule.

In the latest Prime Video series, Clarkson was once again joined by his old Top Gear colleagues, James May and Richard Hammond. However, Clarkson has recently mused, suggesting that neither automotive show might be produced today.

In an article for The Sun, he expressed that such a project would not secure approval today; it’s far more probable that a show like “monkey tennis” would be greenlit instead, in his opinion.

He went on: “It would be so difficult – three middle-aged, middle-class guys, driving cars around in other countries, I think they’d probably say no.”

In a similar vein, May stated that during their time on Top Gear, Clarkson’s tendency to make contentious remarks was simply part of his professional duties. He added: “I didn’t flinch at Clarkson being provocative because it’s his duty to be a bit of a troublemaker, and he excels at it.

I’d cringe if he didn’t grasp the fundamentals of aerodynamics so easily. It would leave me wondering, ‘How is it possible that he doesn’t know this?’
