Jeremy Clarkson reported the theft of eleven Easycare sheep from his Diddly Squat Farm in Chadlington, Oxfordshire. The livestock, valued at over £2,000, were discovered missing during a headcount conducted by Clarkson and farm manager Kaleb Cooper.

The theft is believed to have occurred at night or during periods when filming for the Amazon Prime series ‘Clarkson’s Farm’ was not active. Clarkson expressed concern that other animals may have been taken from more distant fields on the 1,000-acre estate.

Thames Valley Police were notified and met with Clarkson at the farm. Clarkson noted that while his public profile might make the farm a target, livestock theft is a persistent issue in rural areas.
