Jeremy Clarkson says if you want to live to 100 you should never eat with “ugly people”.
It is one of a series of rules for a long life the Clarkson’s Farm presenter took from a “lovely lunch” he shared with a respected French dietician. The Grand Tour host, 63, was told: “Always sit down when you eat, and take your time. Laugh often. Never share your table with ugly people. Eat the fat from birds and drink red wine, but not too much.”
Instead of fad dieting or cramming 10,000 steps-a-day at 4mph into a busy lifestyle, the food guru informed Jezza he was better copying the lifestyles of the locals in Gascony, south-west France, where the pair were dining. Jeremy added: “When I questioned this theory, as you would, he simply picked up a copy of the local paper and turned to the obituary column.

“Not one of them was under 95 when they croaked. And judging by the pictures, none of them had ever owned a pair of training shoes, tried ginger tea, or done 4mph even when they were in their Citroens.” The TV star also revealed he does not keep track of how much booze he guzzles. He added: “I’m told how many units I’m supposed to have each day, but I do not know what a unit is.”
It comes after the future of hit show Clarkson’s Farm has been confirmed after producers gave the show’s fourth season the green light. The former Top Gear presenter Clarkson, 63, had been unsure whether the show would be given the go ahead in the wake of controversial comments he made about Meghan Markle. But it seems streaming service Amazon have given Jeremy the benefit of the doubt
Prime Video’s head of unscripted TV on the streaming platform confirmed the show would be coming back for another season. Fozia Khan revealed the news at a TV business conference at King’s Cross in London on Thursday (November 30). Khan added that the filming of the series’ fourth season will begin “very soon”. Meanwhile, filming for the third season has finished and is expected to launch on Prime Video next year, Deadline reported.

There had been initial rumours that Clarkson’s Farm would be pulled from the streaming service after Jeremy was embroiled in a PR scandal surrounding comments he made about the Duchess of Sussex, 42. In his column, he said that Meghan should be paraded through the streets naked with people throwing excrement at her. The column became the most complained about piece in regulator IPSO’s history, and Clarkson later apologised for the comments which had been labelled as “sexist”.

The controversy, however, did little to damage Clarkson’s Farm’s ratings. The show’s renewal for another show comes after Jeremy, together with co-stars Richard Hammond and James May decided to call time on their Top Gear spin-off The Grand Tour. Launching the show in 2016, the trio – who left after Jeremy was fired from the BBC – are set to have their final adventure together in Zimbabwe.
