Clarkson's Farm season five is back on Prime Video with two new episodes and fans discovered Jeremy Clarkson had faced yet another frustrating hurdle, just one of many this season.
In the previous episodes, he explained how Diddly Squat Farm had some new inhabitants - a flock of Guineafowl gifted by one of his daughters.
In episode five, which has just been released, Jeremy explained how his partner Lisa Hogan had summoned him back to the farmyard because it had been "too quiet".

The Guineafowl were renowned for being noisy birds, but there was a problem as the pair could not hear anything in the area where they were being kept.
Clarkson's eldest daughter, Emily, had gifted her father the birds but Jeremy concluded: "They are not in here, are they?"
As he and Hogan scoured the area, Jeremy exclaimed: "Oh s***", as he spotted Guineafowl feathers scattered in the grass.
A few moments later he said: "Oh no," as he made the grim discovery of a dead Guineafowl. "Oh and another one, for god's sake," he added as he located more of the dead birds.
"That's a fox, isn't it? Just killing for fun," he concluded. "How am I going to explain this? Granddaughter comes for the weekend, 'Can I go and see the Guineafowl?'"

He proceeded to call the fox a "murdering b******", but there was some good news as one of the birds had survived, having managed to fly up into a tree.
However, later in the episode, Jeremy went to check on the bird only to find it too had been killed by a fox.
"I started the day by checking in on our one remaining Guineafowl," he narrated, as viewers saw him calling desperately for the bird.
"Oh no, f*** sake, this is just beyond belief," he exclaimed as he held up the bird, which was completely missing its head.
"It's just bitten its head off, it hasn't even eaten it. He's had the lot."
Jeremy concluded in his narration "there was, though, only time to seethe, not mourn, because today was a big day on the ag-bot front".

He was then seen tending to his agricultural robot, which he had bought to make life easier on the farm following his health scare.
