Clarkson's Farm: Kaleb Cooper tries to fire Jeremy
Kaleb Cooper is returning to Clarkson's Farm for season three on May 3. The new season will offer insight into some "seriously daunting challenges".
The synopsis teases: "The crops are failing in the severe hot weather, inflation has driven prices of supplies sky high, dreams for the beloved restaurant are dashed and now the farm shop also faces closure."
Jeremy Clarkson is not the only one facing trouble, however. When someone new arrives on the farm, Kaleb's nose is put out of joint.
In Kaleb's book, The World According to Kaleb, he details plenty of occasions where he has found himself embroiled in even more dangerous dilemmas. He said: "I've been in a few life-threatening situations in my time.
"Once, I was calving a cow and I broke three ribs. The bull was next door and tried to come through. He caught me and flipped me up in the air and I landed on a gate."

He added: "I've been stuck in a ring feeder for an hour and a half, hiding from another bull who decided he didn't like me that day.
"Brian, his name was, a Brown Swiss - and I have always thought that was a very Brian-the-Brown-Swiss-bull kind of thing to do.
"Us farmers can be our own worst enemies, I've nearly rolled a tractor, trying to lift too many silage bales at once, just because I thought I'd do one trip instead of two."
The farming contractor also explained how he had narrowly avoided a "horrible, grisly death" after coming up close to an aerator.

On another occasion, Kaleb cut his right thumb so deeply it caught the nerve, and he still cannot feel anything in that thumb.
After writing in the accident book, he said: "The mess I made, I might as well have written it in actual blood."
Ahead of the release of season three of Clarkson's Farm, Kaleb hit out at ITV - blaming them for "damaging" his ear after he appeared on This Morning.
On Instagram Stories he wrote: "I've got ear ache which I'm blaming on ITV, because when I did the This Morning interview I had to wear an ear piece to be able to hear them and since then I've had ear ache - I might be in a mood at the moment."
ITV has not yet commented on his claims.
