Jeremy Clarkson suffers sleepless nights after difficult 'goodbye' on Diddly Squat Farm

Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he suffers from sleepless nights after he was forced to part with some of his beloved animals on the Diddly Squat Farm. The former Top Gear presenter, 62, previously broke down in tears in a rare TV moment during a scene in his Amazon Prime Video show as he reluctantly sent his sheep to the abattoir for the first time.
