1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: And Amanda Jamn. 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 2: I do want to watch Clarkson's Farm, and it's becoming 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 2: a bit like Game of Thrones for me. 4 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: Now you haven't left it too late. They're very easy 5 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: to watch. You can watch three episodes at once. They're 6 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: so charming. 7 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 2: And I like Jeremy clarks Well, I never did broadcaster 8 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 2: and a journalist. 9 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Harley had always loved top gear and so I thought, 10 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: thought of this cantankerous, not Harley. I thought that Jeremy 11 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: Clarkson was a cantankerous old. 12 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, well he is. 13 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: He is, and I didn't like him for it. And 14 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: Harley said, you're going to love this new show, and 15 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 1: I didn't want to. And I've fallen in love with it. 16 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 1: I'm up to series four. 17 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 3: But I read his columns. He used to write in 18 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 3: the Sunday Times. 19 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 2: I think there was a book came out and what 20 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: a great writer, such a good turn of phrase. 21 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: Well, in this show, he's very kind, and he's funny, 22 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: and he's vulnerable and all the things that I didn't 23 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 1: that I didn't think it would. 24 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 3: You like that? That's your thing? You want kind people. 25 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: I want kind people and who wouldn't and people who 26 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 1: can who allow themselves to be the butt of a joke, 27 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: which he does in this series because he's out of 28 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: his depth trying to run this farm. But listen to 29 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: this story that I saw yesterday. 30 00:00:58,840 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 3: Do you know? 31 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: His mother does iron and created the very first Paddington 32 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: Bear toy in the early seventies. So the prototype she 33 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: made for Jeremy and his sister, it says he later 34 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: became a licensed product that funded his education, helped launch 35 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,479 Speaker 1: his TV career, though reading more closely, it was she 36 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: they almost got in trouble for it. His late mother, 37 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: she passed away not so long ago, made a Christmas 38 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: present to her children one year of a Paddington Bear prototype. 39 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: She thought, isn't this good? Because the toy was admired 40 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: by all their friends, So she and her husband Eddie 41 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: began making unofficial Paddington Bear Teddy Bears in the seventies 42 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,919 Speaker 1: and selling them at the local shops. But the book 43 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: came first, so the Paddington Bear author Michael Bond heard 44 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,839 Speaker 1: about them being sold without his knowledge and was considering 45 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: suing them for copyright infringement. 46 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 3: I thought that she came up with Paddington Bear. 47 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: No, so the stories already just risked it off. She said, 48 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to make that toy in the seventies. It's 49 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: up for grabs. But listen to this. A chance meeting 50 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: between the author, Michael Bond, and the Clarksons in a 51 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: lift where they were introduced by a mutual acquaintance sounds 52 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: like it's a setup to me. Brought a resolution to 53 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: this conflict. So during the conversation, the two parties struck 54 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: a deal so that Shirley and Eddie were able to 55 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: continue manufacturing and selling the bear toys. So the author 56 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: said to the Sunday Times, just last year, I got 57 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: in a lift with Shirley and Eddie. They were terribly 58 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: nice and pretended it had pretended it had all been 59 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: a mistake, and we were friends by the time we 60 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,119 Speaker 1: got out of the lift. I gave them the license. 61 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: And so Shirley died in twenty fourteen. And she said 62 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 1: that a son may not have had his successful TV 63 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: career without her innovation because it funded his education. That's 64 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: why he wears those boots and those big jackets, because 65 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: he wants to still dressed like Pattison. 66 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 2: There. My mum used to make bort shorts like Billabong. 67 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: She said they were like billabongs. 68 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: Made of chain mail and. 69 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: Flannel and anvils. Go for a swim made off you. 70 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: Go and carry my sewing machine while you're adding
