At 00:00:18,600, Character said: The morning after my meeting
with Cotswold District Council,

2
At 00:00:22,600, Character said: I withdrew my offer to
buy the Coach & Horses.

3
At 00:00:27,800, Character said: This was a sad day for me,

4
At 00:00:29,840, Character said: and a sad day too for
this lovely old building.

5
At 00:00:34,880, Character said: But even though I was
feeling quite deflated,

6
At 00:00:37,920, Character said: I had to turn my
attention to a problem

7
At 00:00:40,160, Character said: that was affecting every
farmer in the land:

8
At 00:00:43,880, Character said: the weather, which,
like a stuck record,

9
At 00:00:46,920, Character said: had reared its ugly
head yet again.

10
At 00:00:52,480, Character said: There have been grey
skies over farming for six months now.

11
At 00:00:56,120, Character said: The sodden ground
spells disaster.

12
At 00:00:58,240, Character said: Crops
are already rotting,

13
At 00:00:59,720, Character said: while many with livestock have
seen grazing land turn into mud.

14
At 00:01:03,480, Character said: In 2024,

15
At 00:01:04,880, Character said: the ground is simply too wet.

16
At 00:01:08,000, Character said: This time,
the problem was

17
At 00:01:09,760, Character said: we'd had almost continuous rain

18
At 00:01:12,760, Character said: throughout a mild winter.

19
At 00:01:15,920, Character said: In the past 188 years
of weather records,

20
At 00:01:17,880, Character said: we've never had a wetter February
than the one we saw this year.

21
At 00:01:21,120, Character said: And now we were into
the April planting season,

22
At 00:01:24,280, Character said: everyone was stuck.

23
At 00:01:25,960, Character said: No one could get their crops
into the sodden ground.

24
At 00:01:30,080, Character said: And it was still raining.

25
At 00:01:33,240, Character said: Mentally, financially, anything,
we can't carry on like this.

26
At 00:01:36,640, Character said: We'd been hit,
the same as everyone else.

27
At 00:01:40,960, Character said: Rain, rain, rain.

28
At 00:01:42,400, Character said: It's stopped progress. No spraying,
no fertilising, no drilling.

29
At 00:01:47,000, Character said: It just keeps on coming.

30
At 00:01:55,200, Character said: This meant my
crop chat with Charlie

31
At 00:01:57,920, Character said: was more of a crisis summit.

32
At 00:02:02,200, Character said: I don't want to go on about
rainfall 'cause we've done that

33
At 00:02:04,720, Character said: in every single programme since
we started making Clarkson's Farm.

34
At 00:02:08,160, Character said: Basically, since
you started farming.

35
At 00:02:10,280, Character said: It hasn't stopped raining.
The weather's been rubbish.

36
At 00:02:13,240, Character said: I haven't had one
proper year yet.

37
At 00:02:15,200, Character said: No.

38
At 00:02:16,680, Character said: I printed this out
from The Times.

39
At 00:02:19,120, Character said: Sick of all this rain?
You should have seen 1872.

40
At 00:02:22,840, Character said: By December 1872, after 12
months of continuous rain,

41
At 00:02:27,280, Character said: conditions in England were
little short of apocalyptic.

42
At 00:02:30,720, Character said: At least according to The Times.

43
At 00:02:32,800, Character said: In the fields, rats as plentiful
as hares ravaged the cabbages.

44
At 00:02:36,760, Character said: In Cambridge, rowers
practised in railway ditches.

45
At 00:02:40,120, Character said: Rivers flowed into the
cellars of Leicester.

46
At 00:02:42,640, Character said: The Archbishop of Canterbury was
leading emergency prayers for blue sky.

47
At 00:02:47,840, Character said: That was in 1872, okay?

48
At 00:02:49,920, Character said: And how much rain did we
have in England that year?

49
At 00:02:52,520, Character said: Roughly the same as has
fallen in the past 12 months.

50
At 00:02:57,240, Character said: Interesting, isn't it?

51
At 00:02:58,280, Character said: 1872, they had the Archbishop
of Canterbury praying

52
At 00:03:01,000, Character said: For blue sky!
For it to stop raining.

53
At 00:03:03,000, Character said: That's amazing.
And now we're just sitting here going,

54
At 00:03:04,760, Character said: Oh, bloody nuisance,
this rain, innit?

55
At 00:03:06,600, Character said: We're getting used to it.
Yeah, yeah.

56
At 00:03:08,680, Character said: Anyway.

57
At 00:03:09,680, Character said: It's now April
the 3rd or 4th.

58
At 00:03:13,960, Character said: How much later can we go

59
At 00:03:16,400, Character said: before we have to
plant that durum wheat?

60
At 00:03:19,760, Character said: We're getting to a point

61
At 00:03:21,520, Character said: where the yield is
dropping off quite quickly.

62
At 00:03:26,640, Character said: And the weather forecast for
the rest of this week is rain.

63
At 00:03:30,320, Character said: Yes.

64
At 00:03:31,320, Character said: Monday, rain. Tuesday, rain.

65
At 00:03:33,600, Character said: Wednesday, rain. Friday,
rain. Saturday, rain.

66
At 00:03:37,160, Character said: It's not a
good outlook, is it?

67
At 00:03:38,920, Character said: What the f***k are we gonna do?

68
At 00:03:41,160, Character said: We haven't g***t the
durum wheat planted.

69
At 00:03:43,240, Character said: We haven't g***t the rye grass
in. We haven't g***t the NUM3 in.

70
At 00:03:46,240, Character said: And nor is all of
the herbal ley.

71
At 00:03:49,600, Character said: The GS4?
The GS4.

72
At 00:03:51,680, Character said: That is in. I planted it.

73
At 00:03:53,640, Character said: We might have to re-drill it.

74
At 00:03:56,440, Character said: We will have to re-drill it.

75
At 00:03:58,760, Character said: The field I did?
The field you did.

76
At 00:04:01,520, Character said: It's not growing.

77
At 00:04:03,280, Character said: I must say, I was up at
the farm shop yesterday.

78
At 00:04:05,640, Character said: No, day before yesterday.

79
At 00:04:07,120, Character said: It's quite brown.
Talking to a farmer, I said,

80
At 00:04:09,360, Character said: I've g***t my GS4 in. And

81
At 00:04:11,320, Character said: And he went
Expansive gesture! And he went, Where?

82
At 00:04:15,400, Character said: Well, he had a point.

83
At 00:04:16,880, Character said: The seed went onto the ground
and it's no longer there.

84
At 00:04:19,400, Character said: S***t, we need it to feed the cows.
That's the point.

85
At 00:04:22,040, Character said: If we want to feed
the cows this year,

86
At 00:04:25,080, Character said: we want the GS4 in
quite quickly as well.

87
At 00:04:28,320, Character said: But, the priority is very
easy: durum wheat, GS4.

88
At 00:04:32,280, Character said: Give me a deadline.

89
At 00:04:33,480, Character said: So if by the 24th of April
we haven't g***t the durum in,

90
At 00:04:38,920, Character said: that's the problem.

91
At 00:04:41,560, Character said: But we have planted
it in May before.

92
At 00:04:44,240, Character said: And the yield was

93
At 00:04:46,040, Character said: Poor.

94
At 00:04:47,800, Character said: Right.

95
At 00:04:52,720, Character said: I think that's last
year's calendar.

96
At 00:04:54,480, Character said: Why haven't we gotten
another calendar up?

97
At 00:04:56,560, Character said: I don't even
know what month that is.

98
At 00:04:57,840, Character said: I'm gonna get a calendar
and I'm gonna ring it.

99
At 00:05:00,920, Character said: 24th.
There's one on your phone.

100
At 00:05:02,920, Character said: Yes, but I can't hang
my phone on the wall.

101
At 00:05:06,880, Character said: Well, you could.

102
At 00:05:10,600, Character said: On the odd day
when it didn't rain,

103
At 00:05:12,600, Character said: the fields remained
completely waterlogged.

104
At 00:05:17,080, Character said: Look how much
flooding is over here.

105
At 00:05:18,840, Character said: Yeah, all floodplain.
Jesus.

106
At 00:05:21,760, Character said: Lisa and I, therefore, used
the time to get back to pub hunting.

107
At 00:05:25,720, Character said: And, rather sadly, we
were spoilt for choice.

108
At 00:05:30,360, Character said: Every single pub owner I went to
Yeah.

109
At 00:05:33,440, Character said: Every single one said that
their pub was for sale.

110
At 00:05:36,920, Character said: Every single one.

111
At 00:05:38,480, Character said: Oh, my God. Like, so,
if you look at this, right?

112
At 00:05:40,800, Character said: Yeah?
In 1990,

113
At 00:05:42,680, Character said: there was 110 pubs
per 100,000 people.

114
At 00:05:45,800, Character said: What, in the UK?
In the UK.

115
At 00:05:47,960, Character said: And then, in 2022,

116
At 00:05:50,720, Character said: there was about 68 pubs.

117
At 00:05:52,520, Character said: So it's fallen from 110
To 68.

118
At 00:05:55,360, Character said: To 68, per 100,000 people.
Yes.

119
At 00:05:58,000, Character said: I mean, there
are so many for sale.

120
At 00:05:59,960, Character said: So many.

121
At 00:06:02,040, Character said: The first pub we
visited was a heartfelt reminder

122
At 00:06:05,640, Character said: of this sad decline.

123
At 00:06:07,720, Character said: But you're
still open, aren't you?

124
At 00:06:09,120, Character said: No, we're not now.
Oh, you're closed.

125
At 00:06:10,280, Character said: Closed on Mother's Day.

126
At 00:06:12,240, Character said: Oh, s***t. I didn't Oh, s***t.
Yeah.

127
At 00:06:14,880, Character said: And what made it even more sad
is that the pub was an absolute gem.

128
At 00:06:19,680, Character said: Oh wow, look at this.

129
At 00:06:20,960, Character said: This is a properly nice
building, isn't it?

130
At 00:06:23,720, Character said: It's very, very charming.

131
