Jeremy Clarkson's girlfriend Lisa Hogan discusses heart-wrenching deaths on ... trends now
Jeremy Clarkson's girlfriend Lisa Hogan broke down in tears over the heart-wrenching deaths on Diddly Squat Farm.
The actress, 50, is seen crying on the former Top Gear host shoulder in the latest trailer for Clarkson's Farm's third series.
In the new season Diddly Squat has become home to a drove of rare breed pigs, as Jeremy, 64, turns his hand at his latest hare brained plan to make money.
But the couple's close bond with their new arrivals also creates the 'saddest moment' in the show so far, as they struggle with animal deaths on the farm.
Opening up about the scenes, Lisa explained: 'It was heart-breaking. Jeremy's always loved pigs, I didn’t think I’d be that enamoured by pigs but I did get really close to them as people will see. Farming’s just sad.'

She continued: 'The animals become your friends and you're isolated – there are certain farms that are really isolated – and the animals become your family. When they become unwell, you're losing members of your animal family.
'If that's how sad we can get in front of a TV crew, imagine the farmers that are alone and having to do it with nobody around them when they’re losing animal after animal. It’s so difficult.
'Every day it's emotional whether it's really happy because the weather is perfect and you can get on with the job at hand or it’s miserable if it’s raining the crops are failing and you can’t do a thing.
'It’s very difficult to be unemotional about it. So, yes, I don’t want to go against what he’s said but I definitely think he’s becoming more a man of the land than a man of the road.'
She added: 'Whatever you think, it's an emotional job. You know, let's talk about the weather: yesterday was beautiful, everything turned green here, and hopefully it’ll stay green until the crops are taken in.
'But when it's raining and raining and raining, you get frustrated as you just want to get on with the job in hand.'
Adding in a Q&A on his Instagram, Jeremy said: 'It turns out that pigs aren’t great mothers as a general rule, but the sandy and black breed that we got makes for a particularly poor mother.'
Clarkson's Farm is returning for a third series and it seems the local council are still on Jeremy's case about his various business ventures.

The second series of the Amazon Prime farming show centred around Jeremy and the gang's ambitions to open up a restaurant in the grounds of the farm.
Despite push back from the council, they eventually managed to open up the farm restaurant - after jumping through a few hoops to make it happen.
Throughout the new series, Jeremy is seemingly in more hot water with local councillors, who have set their sights on closing down his farm shop and car park.
This also means that Jeremy has to lose his beloved cow herd, however there are a new cohort of farm animals that arrive during season three.
The farm also battles to save the on site shop, which has become a hit with tourists, as Cheerful Charlie pushes back against the council's endless red tape.
Jeremy and Charlie get to grips with the latest Enforcement Notice and try to hatch a plan to stop the shop and burger van suffering the same fate as the restaurant.
At the farm shop, Charlie is tasked with making sure that Lisa is following the council's instructions to the exact letter of the law, much to her annoyance.
Speaking about the new rules, Lisa said: 'Charlie had to have a serious conversation with me and say that I could end up with a criminal record if I didn't comply, it's council regulations which I respect, especially after Charlie explained it to me in his clear and concise way.
Meanwhile, Jeremy gets feedback on the future of his farm shop as he attends a meeting with the local council to fight for it to stay open.
