Lisa Hogan uses mics to her advantage as Jeremy Clarkson ‘cannot interrupt' her
Lisa Hogan has said she will tell her partner Jeremy Clarkson things he does not want to hear when they are filming so that he cannot 'interrupt' her.
Hogan is best known for appearing on the Amazon Prime documentary series Clarkson's Farm, where she runs the farm shop, which stars the former BBC Top Gear presenter as he navigates the challenges of running Diddly Squat Farm.
During filming for the fifth season, Hogan shared that she has learned to use the cameras to her advantage when wanting to say things to her partner that he might not want to hear.
Speaking to the Mail on Sunday, she said: 'I've worked out that when he's wearing a mic, he can't interrupt me. So that's when I go for it.'
Overall, she avoids arguing with him, adding: 'I'm more conniving than that. Why argue with someone like Jeremy? He's so eloquent. I have to be a bit more… nimble. I like the long-term diplomatic approach.'
The pair met at a drinks party hosted by a mutual friend nine years ago, however, she said that she knew him for his columns, with regular contributions for The Sun and The Sunday Times, rather than his presenting.
Speaking about the presenter and what he is like off camera, she said: 'He's always incredibly inquisitive.
'His mind is always on the move. He'll come in fizzing with energy about the smallest thing. I like that.
'I used to let my son stay up to watch Top Gear, but I never really watched it myself. I knew him more from his writing. I always loved his columns. I thought he was bright – and probably amusing. And I think he thought I'd be amusing.'
Hogan once used tadpoles as a live centrepiece after discovering them in her pond.
She said: 'It was fascinating! You could have a conversation and see them wandering around. Well, anyway, I put them back because everyone was pretty freaked out by it, but I could tell he was charmed.
'It's like a tablescape. It's interesting!
'Jeremy thought it was horrendous, but I could also see that he was charmed by me creating a centrepiece of live tadpoles. I could see the romance in his eyes.'

Jeremy Clarkson renames his trans pig – and makes hilarious new decision on its future
Scroll down to find out which infamous celebrity Jeremy has likened the pig to RASHER DECISION Jeremy Clarkson renames his trans pig – and makes hilarious new decision on its future TELLY farm favourite Jeremy Clarkson has made the rasher decision not to send his tiny transgender pig to the slaughterhouse. While most of the Sun columnist's swine are dispatched to be turned into bacon, sausages and pork chops, he has decided to save diminutive Richard Ham — named after his ex-Top Gear and Grand Tour co-host Richard Hammond. Advertisement 2 Jeremy Clarkson has made the decision not to send his tiny transgender pig to the slaughterhouse Credit: Getty 2 Jeremy has decided to name the diminutive pig Richard Ham Credit: Amazon But in scenes from the latest episode of Clarkson's Farm — streaming tomorrow — viewers discover the pint-sized pig is not being kept purely out of affection. Instead, he is spared the butcher's knife in a bid to get the next lot of female pigs 'in the mood' — and is likened to late Playboy boss Hugh Hefner. Jeremy says: 'The problem is, if he goes on the lorry, he's killed and all we get in return is chipolata and a pork chop the size of a walnut. 'If he stays here, we've got to feed him for no reason. Advertisement 'And that's not farming. 'But the next lot of sows, we're going to use artificial insemination on them, to make them pregnant. 'But we can't do that until they get in heat and they won't get in heat unless there's man pig nearby. 'So why don't we keep him as the farm's man pig, to get the ladies in the mood? Advertisement 'Good old Richard Ham — you could be Hugh Hefner now!' Last week, viewers saw farm manager Kaleb Cooper tell Jeremy his bull, which cost £5,500, might be gay as he showed no interest in breeding with the cows. I don't want folk going veggie due to farming crisis, rages Jeremy Clarkson - so my pub will serve pig uterus & squirrel Then Kaleb informed him Richard Ham was showing signs he might be trans after being bonked by another boar. But Kaleb is still bewildered by Jeremy's decision to keep the little porker, saying: 'What is this farm coming to?'
