Clarkson’s Farm viewers have burst into tears after learning that a favourite animal has been saved from slaughter.
The third season of the Amazon Prime series premiered last week, with Jeremy Clarkson and his Diddly Squat crew dealing with several heartbreaks.
After deciding to transfer their cows to an abattoir, their focus shifted to raising pigs, but the deaths of many piglets caused them much pain.
Following the emotional rollercoaster, both Jeremy and his partner Lisa Hogan, as well as the programme is fans, were glad to learn the fate of Pepper, a cow he had pledged to preserve.
In the season’s last episode, Jeremy took Lisa to a farm in Northamptonshire and gave her a huge surprise.
Nearly a year after saying goodbye to Pepper, it was discovered that she was not only still alive, but had also become a mother.
Lisa was taken aback by the emotional circumstances in which she was reunited with Pepper and introduced to her calf Tabatha.
Breeder Tim Hogan informed to the couple that Pepper became pregnant shortly after they sold her, saving her life.
‘We haven’t seen her for a year,’ Jeremy explained to the cameras before pointing out the new addition too.
‘Pepper got pregnant. This is Pepper’s calf.’
Gushing over the calf, Jeremy called Tabby the ‘sweetest’ thing before Lisa said the news was ‘the best surprise you could have given me’.
Those watching it play out at home were also moved by what they watched.

‘Pepper is alive!!!’ Sam posted on X.
‘Who else cried when they saw Pepper and Tabatha?’ Shell shared.
‘I was so happy for the most famous cow in the world. You are so cute Tabby!’ Cherry added.
Another said the surprise was ‘the best part of the entire series’ while someone else said the show provided ‘smiles, tears and laughter’.
It came out that Pepper had been pregnant by the same bull that had been on Diddly Squat farm, with Tim saying that she merely did not like Oxfordshire and thrived, allowing her to become pregnant after departing.
In the first episode of the season, Jeremy expressed his sadness when he decided to sell his cows since he could not afford to maintain them after being forced to down his restaurant by the council and losing the outlet to sell them.
‘I’m finding today really quite sad as for the last year I’ve been opening the windows, opening the curtains in the morning and there are the cows. And I love that. Making cow noises. It just cheers my heart every morning to see them,’ he explained.
However, land agent Charlie Ireland had advised him not to ask too many questions about Pepper’s fate, saying: ‘Don’t ask questions you don’t want to know the answers to.’
Clarkson’s Farm is streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
