Kaleb Cooper attacked by pigs as Jeremy Clarkson stands by and does nothing
Kaleb Cooper cried out as he has struggles with 11 mischievous pigs at Diddly Squat Farm — meanwhile Jeremy Clarkson does nothing to help!
The hilarious moment is one of the first looks at the latest instalment of Clarkson's Farm titled "Kaleb gets attacked by pigs". The show is returning for its fourth season on Friday on Prime Video, with its first two episodes set to be available.
The pigs played a huge part in the third series as Clarkson's Farm suffered a tragedy with many of the piglets dying. Season three ended with Clarkson in tears as pig Baronness was euthanised. This time round, it looks like the pigs are going to be up to some mischief.
"Aahhh, f***ing hell," Cooper shouted as the pigs appeared to come at him. "Ow, ow, ow, ow, f***," he complained.
Watch Kaleb Cooper get attacked by pigs in Clarkson's Farm
All while Clarkson was stood outside of the animal trailer appearing to ignore his distress. Instead he was looking at the surrounding environment on Diddly Squat Farm. "This tree is irritating," Clarkson remarked while Cooper was struggling with the pigs.
It all started when Cooper was guiding all of the pigs to come into the animal trailer after him. "Come on piggies," Cooper had shouted as urging the animals to follow him into the truck by holding some of their food as bait.
Quickly it descended into chaos in typical Clarkson's Farm fashion with the pigs charging at Cooper and leaving him crying out for help. "Could someone please undo the — ahhh!" Cooper said. Clarkson appeared to ignore him for some time.
Eventually the farm manager managed to get Clarkson's attention. Then the former Top Gear presenter opened the door allowing Cooper to escape the feisty pigs... Phew!
Despite the trailer released in recent weeks teasing that Cooper was on tour, he is only away for two episodes of the eight-part series. Harriet Cowan, a 24-year-old nurse, stands in for him while he is touring the UK.
The farm manager explained what it was like to be away from his duties at Diddly Squat Farm.
He said: "It was great. It was busy, but in a good way and there was so much rain we couldn't really do much farming anyway. It's never ideal to be away, but because of the weather it was a perfect time to not be on the farm.
"But I just missed farming. It was quite weird, from doing my day job of being on a farm to then not being on the farm at all. Luckily, while I was touring around the country I met loads of different farmers, they'd invite me to come and have a cup of tea on their farms.
"So I still managed to speak to a lot of farmers and see how different things are grown, and different tool types and all this stuff. It was like 'Farmer Tinder'. They'd pick me up outside the theatre and then drop me back.
"My poor manager was like, 'Who are you going with?' And I'd say, 'I don't know. I've never been there before!'. I went to a farm in Scotland, it was January, and the grass there was still growing. So it was weird to see the different climates all over the country. I'm based in Oxfordshire, so at that time of the year, there was no grass growing at all. But their grass looked amazing."
The fourth series of Clarkson's Farm will launch globally on Prime Video 23 May.

‘Lotus' by Little Simz Review: The Beat of Betrayal
London rapper Simbiatu Ajikawo, who has released albums as Little Simz since 2015, is an important player in her city's fertile hip-hop and R&B scene. In her home country, the 31-year-old can fill an arena, but, like many of her peers, she's more of a cult figure in the U.S. While she's critically respected and admired by American artists—Kendrick Lamar has praised her work, and Lauryn Hill, one of her musical heroes, took her on tour—she's hasn't quite reached the mainstream. Some of that has to do with cultural barriers and lost-in-translation references. And some has to do with her more grown-up style. Across five full-length albums, including 2021's 'Sometimes I Might Be Introvert,' which won the Mercury Prize for album of the year, she has generally favored what one might call a 'classic' aesthetic, with recognizable instruments playing funk and R&B riffs in the tradition of hip-hop artists who emerged in the late 1980s and early '90s. (This stands in contrast to much of the most popular youth-oriented rap of today, in both the U.S. and U.K., which tends toward electronic textures.)

Hamburg Ballet's Artistic Director Leaves After Just 10 Months
The Hamburg Ballet's last director, John Neumeier, led the company for 51 years, transforming it from a provincial troupe into an internationally respected house. His successor, Demis Volpi, lasted just 10 months. On Tuesday, Hamburg State Opera said in a news release that its board and Volpi had agreed to terminate his contract at the ballet four years early. The announcement followed weeks of crisis at the company after it emerged that five principal dancers had resigned, and that more than half of the company's dancers had sent a letter to a local lawmaker to complain of a 'toxic working environment' under Volpi. In Tuesday's release, Volpi said that 'despite intensive efforts,' he could no longer realize his artistic vision and had agreed to depart 'in the interests of all involved.' Volpi, an Argentine choreographer who previously led the Ballet am Rhein in Düsseldorf, did not respond to a request for an interview, and a spokeswoman for Hamburg Ballet said it would not comment further. It was not immediately clear what Volpi's departure would mean for the company's coming season, which Volpi had announced in March and is to include the premiere of Alexei Ratmansky's 'Wonderland,' based on Lewis Carroll's novels. Nor is it clear how the company will handle productions of Volpi's work. A new version of Volpi's 'Surrogate Cities' is scheduled to premiere in July. And Volpi's 'Demian,' based on the novel by Hermann Hesse, is scheduled to be performed in December. The crisis at Hamburg Ballet began in early May when German newspapers widely reported dancers' complaints about its artistic direction under Volpi, as well as accusations that he was insufficiently present during rehearsals.

‘Taskmaster' Is a Mischievous, Unpredictable British Panel Show
'Taskmaster' has long been one of my favorite shows, and among my favorite things about it is that there are no bad seasons. In each outing, five performers, mostly comedians, compete in a series of kooky challenges, then regroup in front of a studio audience to see how they've done. In addition to being silly and enchanting, 'Taskmaster' is breathtakingly novel: I'm amazed by its capacity to remain unpredictable to both its viewers and its participants. The gap between 'this is the best episode of the best season' and 'this is the worst episode of the worst season' is minuscule. That said, this season — Season 19 (19!) — is among the best of the best, and it's an ideal entree for new viewers. The American comedian Jason Mantzoukas is one of the contestants this season, and his gleeful maniac persona fits perfectly with the show's sense of mischief. He is also clearly a student of the game … not that it helps him win. The contestants most familiar with the workings of the show are no more likely to win a task than those least familiar, and no single virtue is more desirable than another. Nervous pedantry earns a certain amount of mileage, but a 'Cs get degrees' approach leads often to a faster, funnier conclusion. Brazenness and preciousness are equally valuable. Athleticism has its rewards, but defaulting to an athletic method can and does backfire. There are a lot of ways to be funny, and on 'Taskmaster' there are also a lot of ways to be smart. I was curious how the show would incorporate Mantzoukas's antic energy, but everything feels harmonious — and no one person is singing the melody. Mathew Baynton, the creator and a star of the original British version of 'Ghosts,' brings a twee braininess, and the comedian Fatiha El-Ghorri's impeccable timing and tough-girl shtick add warmth, raunch and surprise. Stevie Martin's sweet openness and Rosie Ramsey's grounded wit keep everything in balance. Seasons 9-19 on are on the show's YouTube channel, with new episodes of Season 19 arriving weekly on Fridays. And if you burn through all those, seek out the international versions.
