Former Top Gear icon Jeremy Clarkson has received a message from the military after he recently took to social media to make a request regarding their Apache gunships
Jeremy Clarkson has caught the attention of the military.
In a recent interaction on X/Twitter, the Top Gear icon made a cheeky appeal to those piloting the “Apache gunships” above his Diddly Squat Farm situated between Chipping Norton and Chadlington in Oxfordshire.
The presenter sought assistance with “drying” his wheat with a rather cheeky declaration, reports Gloucestershire Live. He posted a plea on the social media platform: “If you’re flying the Apache gunships over Diddly Squat today, can you hover over the wheat for a bit. It still needs drying.”
The Army Air Corps replied and noted that this specific duty isn’t part of their daily agenda, but still offered some help to the farm owner: “Hi Jeremy, that was us. Wheat drying wasn’t in the mission brief, but if Diddly Squat ever needs close air support from the world’s most advanced gunship you know where to find us.”
The Army Air Corps (AAC) serves as the combat aviation wing of the British Army. This interaction comes amid reports of a potentially “awkward” situation brewing between Clarkson and US Vice-President JD Vance, who is said to be planning a Cotswolds visit with his family this summer.
Rumours suggest the politician has booked a holiday rental in Charlbury, a market town in Evenlode valley close to Diddly Squat.
Clarkson recently made scathing remarks about Vance in his Sunday Times column and branded him a “bearded God-botherer” and even a “t**t,” following Vance’s description of the UK as “some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
The Top Gear star wrote: “Now I don’t want to stoop to his level, but I’m going to. Vance is a bearded God-botherer who pretty much thinks that women who’ve been raped should be forced to have the resultant child.”
“I’ve searched for the right word to describe him and I think it’s ‘t**t’. He also has no clue about history.”
