Clarkson’s Farm’s Kaleb Cooper lands brand new show without Jeremy as Prime Video confirm release date
THE Prime Video release date for Kaleb Cooper’s solo show has been confirmed.
Kaleb, 26, has starred alongside Jeremy on Clarkson’s Farm since its 2021 debut.
A special performance from the farmer’s national theatre tour The World According to Kaleb will be added to the streamer.
It will be available on Prime Video globally from November 29.
Meanwhile, the show will give viewers a front-row seat as Kaleb hosts an evening at Cheltenham Everyman Theatre.
This performance will see Kaleb share observations and passionate views on topics from sheep to famous people.
In addition, he will highlight why farming is the “best job in the world” – and challenges faced by many British farmers today.
Kaleb said: “I feel so lucky to have gone on a brilliant theatre tour – and the first farmer to be able to say that!
“I met some amazing people and had such a laugh with everyone who came along.
“Now being able to share this with people watching Prime Video, means farming will be on an even bigger stage.”
“I’m really looking forward to bringing all the farming fun and highlighting important issues affecting the agricultural industry – to people at home.”
Jeremy Clarkson and the rest of the Diddly Squat team from Clarkson’s Farm also showed their support for Kaleb.
Taking to Instagram, Jeremy remarked to his seven million followers: “A star is born. What a show.”
Produced by NLP Ltd, Kaleb’s tour ran for 37 performances between January 25 and March 11.
The show concluded in his hometown of Chipping Norton, with a special charity performance at the Chipping Norton Theatre in aid of their 50th anniversary campaign.
It comes as Kaleb recently opened up about his and Jeremy Clarkson‘s off-screen dynamic.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun at last month’s National Television Awards, he revealed: “Everything you see on the camera is everything you see behind-the-scenes as well.
Clarkson's Farm series guide
By Conor O'Brien, TV Reporter
Clarkson’s Farm airs on Prime Video and follows TV personality Jeremy Clarkson as he manages his Diddly Squat Farm in the Cotswolds.
Three series have been released to date and here is an overview of what has happened so far.
Series 1
- Jeremy takes over the day-to-day running of the newly renamed Diddly Squat Farm.
- Lisa Hogan, Kaleb Cooper, “Cheerful Charlie” Ireland and Gerald Cooper are also introduced.
- Jeremy starts to assemble what he needs for his farm – as well as laying the groundwork for things to come later.
- He buys key equipment including a tractor and cultivator, as well as taking on sheep and opening a farm shop.
- Jeremy takes over the day-to-day running of the newly renamed Diddly Squat Farm.
Series 2
- This series sees Jeremy look for ways to increase the farm’s revenue.
- One such example is bringing in a herd of cows although this isn’t without its issues.
- Jeremy also had the idea to convert the abandoned lambing barn into a restaurant where he could sell his meat from the farm.
- For this plan to move forward, he had to get planning permission from the local council.
- Viewers also meet Pepper, a heifer among the herd who ultimately becomes the star’s favourite.
Series 3
- The third series contained some of the show’s most emotional moments to date.
- In heartbreaking scenes, dozens of newborn piglets died as a result of overlaying – their mother rolling on to them.
- Jeremy said goodbye to his favourite pig – the Baroness – after she developed cancer and needed to be put down.
- Dry stonewall expert and “head of security” Gerald Cooper was diagnosed with cancer.
- Jeremy and Kaleb began a competition between themselves – with Kaleb looking after the arable side and Jeremy taking the non-arable elements.
- Fellow farmers – and famous faces – Andy Cato and George Lamb appear in this series
“I mean yes we still argue and I reckon they probably only show 40 per cent of the arguments we actually have.
“But the main thing is that if we have an argument, ten minutes later we’re best friends again. We’ll be like ‘do you want a cup of tea? Do you want to go to the pub? Do you want to go for a meal?’
“You know anything like that – and that’s what makes a good relationship I believe.”
The World According to Kaleb will arrive on Prime Video on November 29.
Molly-Mae hits back at Maebe pricing rage as she says £65 shirt is a ‘two in one’, but fans say it could be ‘from Asda’
SHE’S faced criticism over the prices in her Maebe clothing range.
But Molly-Mae Hague has hit back at the outrage by insisting that many of the items are suitable for a multitude of occasions.
In a video on the Maebe TikTok page, Molly used the £65 All Tied Up shirt as an example, as she showed how it’s a “two in one” design.
“Maebe is all about super versatile pieces,” she said.
“So with the All Tied Up shirt, we wanted to give you two shirts in one.
“We’ve incorporated a tie inside the shirt, which when it is tied, it creates a super different silhouette.
“It makes it really figure hugging.”
Molly continued to say that she wears it tied up for a “more dressy look”, making it “nice and figure hugging“.
“And then for day to day wear, I like to have it undone and super casual looking,” she added.
The shirt has “oversized shoulder pads”, which helps create a “really boxy effect”, which Molly called “so flattering”.
And it also has “really deep cuffs”, which the former Love Island star said she “just adores”.
“This shirt is your ultimate looking put together staple in your wardrobe,” she concluded.
While lots of Molly’s fans have done their best to grab as many items from the range as they could afford, others have been unimpressed with the offerings – especially the high prices.
And the critics took to the comments section of Maebe’s video, with one writing sarcastically: “Maebe it looks like an Asda shirt!”
“Maebe explain why your charging crazy prices for synthetic material?” another questioned.
“I had this exact shirt in high school as part of my uniform,” a third insisted.
“Can find this in my dad’s wardrobe,” someone else insisted.
However, others were on hand to defend Molly and the Maebe designs.
A Molly-Mae fan's opinion on the Maebe range, and its prices
EVER since Molly-Mae Hague, 25, walked into the Love Island villa back in 2019, I’ve always been a mega fan.
After hearing the news that she was coming out with a fashion brand, of course I was excited.
But as much as I hate to admit it, I’m disappointed.
I understand that she’s launched Maebe as a more high class brand. I know it’s not going to be Shein quality.
But with prices varying from £35 to £140, I’m definitely not impressed.
Maebe’s “ultimate blazer” is priced at an eye-watering £140, whilst a very simple, plain white tee is a whopping £35.
Not only this, but the “contour popper top” is £50, and a seemingly boring white shirt will set you back a whopping £65.
And if that wasn’t bad enough, £90 for a pair of jeans? I understand paying £50 for a pair of good quality denims, but £90?!
That’s incredibly steep considering you can get Levi’s, a well-established brand that’s been going for donkey years, for just a tenner more.
So, will I be buying anything from Maebe? The only thing I can say to that is Maebe (definitely) not.
by Abigail Wilson, Senior Digital Writer
“Maebe all you haters should shop elsewhere then if you’re not gonna buy anything,” one hit back.
“This brand is so elegant, old money and classy if you don’t understand and see that Maebe it’s not for you period!” another agreed.
“Can’t wait for restock!!! love the items! Not only sustainable but everyday items! My order arrives tomorrow,” a third gushed.

Porto vs Manchester United tips
Our Bet Builder selections: Porto to win the match, Samu Omorodion to score anytime and Bruno Fernandes to be carded.
Here’s why we’ve made those selections..
- Porto to win: Not many sides visit the Estadio do Dragao and come away with a result. Porto have lost just five league matches at home in the past FIVE seasons and Vitor Bruno’s side have started well again. They’ve registered five-consecutive home wins, scoring 11 goals and conceding just once.
- Samu Omorodion to score: Porto’s summer signing has bagged five goals in five games since joining from Atletico Madrid — with all five arriving in his last four outings.
- Bruno Fernandes carded: The former Sporting Lisbon midfielder will be in the thick of things back in his native Portugal. The captain is under pressure to help turn things around for the club – especially after his dismissal on Sunday. He’s also been booked six times in 10 games against Porto – the highest of any club he’s faced in his career.

I scored on my Champions League debut… but my parents missed it as they were watching another game 840 miles away
JAMES McATEE’S mum and dad missed the magic moment he has waited more than a decade for — as they were 840 miles away at Northampton’s Sixfields Stadium instead!
The England Under-21 international scored his first senior goal for Manchester City in the 4-0 Champions League win over Slovan Bratislava on Tuesday night.
Local lad McAtee, 21, has been turning out for the club since the Under-11s and admits he has dreamt about this day since his journey at the City Football Academy began
Yet his parents did not travel to Slovakia – instead choosing to watch their other son John, 25, score for Bolton in a League One clash against the Cobblers.
Attacking midfielder McAtee said: “It’s a long way to come for my family.
“My brother played and scored on Tuesday night as well — and they went to go and watch him.
“It’s something I’ve dreamt of for my whole life. I cant explain it but I’m over the moon. It’s one of the better days of my life.
McAtee is known as the Salford Silva as his style of playing in the pocket is similar to that of Etihad legend David.
Compliments do not come much bigger than that in this part of Manchester — and Pep Guardiola has thought highly of him for some time.
When he spent two loan spells at Sheffield United from July 2022 to this summer, there must have been doubts he would ever make the grade for his boyhood club.

But the City boss has full faith in him — maybe more than the player himself.
Guardiola said: “I always had the feeling that I believe he can play here more than he does. Hopefully minutes can help him and show he is part of that.
“Of course, he will not be a regular player this season but in a lot of games he will help us and when he plays like he did here, I can always count on him perfectly.
“Everyone adores him, you have seen the reaction of the players, everyone loves him.”
City turned down offers of more than £30million in the summer as Guardiola wanted him to be part of his first-team squad and he featured in their pre-season tour of the US.
McAtee said he would be fine to have a season where he never played as he was convinced being around one of the greatest bosses ever would help him develop.
So far he is getting chances, like in the season-opening Charity Shield and the League Cup tie against Watford last month.
And he said: “I definitely think I’m sharper. Last year I was playing a bit wider, now I’m more central.
“I’m getting to grips with that. I feel better now than I did two months ago. When I’m going out there now it’s not as chaotic.
“For example, against Watford I hadn’t played for a while and it was a bit chaotic at the start. But today I felt a lot calmer and more composed.
“Basically the manager is telling me to go and have fun. A bit more tactical but go and be myself and feel good about myself.
“With the way they set up I think I needed a bit of freedom to come and get the ball. It was so tight in there, lots of teams have done it already this year.
“He gives me freedom when coming on to try to affect the game as much as I can.”
City have had to rethink their midfield plans for the season following the serious knee injury suffered by Rodri – and that could lead to more opportunities for McAtee.
The Spaniard is out for the rest of the season following ACL surgery with Ilkay Gundogan, 33, another option Guardiola can turn to in the middle of the pitch.
McAtee added: “Rodri’s a different position to me. It was bad news when we heard and it got the lads down a little bit.
“Gundo can maybe drop a bit deeper and I’m just being patient, waiting for my chance and grabbing it when I do get it.”
