Clarkson Sidekick Kaleb Oz-Bound

It could have been worse for the Aussies — they could have sent Gerald.

Prime Video today announced Jeremy Clarkson’s sidekick on Clarkson’s Farm, Kaleb Cooper, will go solo in his own series.

Filming will shortly start of the four-part Kaleb: Down Under, in which the farm show favourite swaps his home town of Chipping Norton for a grand tour of life on the land in a much bigger country.

Here’s the media release:

Prime Video Sends Kaleb to Australia in New Solo Adventure

Prime Video has greenlit Kaleb: Down Under (w/t), a new four-episode series featuring the breakout star from the hit series Clarkson’s Farm.

The series follows the farming contractor with a self-proclaimed “borderline unhealthy obsession with Chipping Norton” as he embarks on his first solo trip to one of the world’s biggest farming markets.

With aspirations to grow his business, Kaleb will experience farming at a scale he’s never encountered before —stretching thousands of acres across Australia’s vast landscape.

“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. Australia here I come!” said Kaleb.

“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.”

Throughout his journey, Kaleb will meet his Australian peers and immerse himself in the local culture while exploring how farmers operate in this challenging environment.

Viewers will see Kaleb taking on new challenges that are a world away from his familiar routines in Chipping Norton in the United Kingdom. And it’s no holiday—Kaleb won’t shy away from the gritty realities of farm work while he’s out there—blisters, burns, backaches and all.

“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.” said Tara Erer, Head of Northern Europe Originals, Amazon MGM Studios.

“We’re proud to bring this next chapter of Kaleb’s journey to Prime Video.”

Filming will begin this spring. While Prime members wait for the new series, they can watch Kaleb at work on Clarkson’s Farm series 1-4 on Prime Video. Kaleb will also be back on Clarkson’s Farm when it returns to Prime Video for series 5 next year.
