Jeremy Clarkson has made an unexpected U-turn on his rift with Elon Musk this week.
The former Top Gear host has recently moved on from the world of cars due to the ever-growing global popularity of Prime Video’s Clarkson’s Farm.
Set on his Oxfordshire farm in Chadlington near Chipping Norton, the documentary highlights day-to-day life on the farm.
This covers scenes with the animals to Clarkson’s products made from the farm’s produce including his very own lager Hawkstone.

The beer has become very popular since its release and in a somewhat shocking turn of events was even reviewed by multibillionaire Elon Musk.
Featuring on the Hawkstone Instagram account, Musk can be seen taking a sip from a bottle of the lager: "As beer goes, that's great."
This was surprising as the pair have exchanged barbs through interviews and social media over recent years.
In a 2018 interview with The Independent, Clarkson called Musk "an idiot" and claimed they "almost had a fight."

In response, Musk took to Twitter and called Clarkson "weird" and "rude." In 2021, Clarkson talked about Musk's kids' unique names and suggested he call them "John or Jane or whatever."
Clarkson has seemingly put behind his rift with Musk after responding to the review.
Taking to social media platform X on Wednesday night, the star said: “Mr Musk said on social media this week that he doesn’t much care for beer but as beers go, Hawkstone is pretty good.
“So I’d like to return the favour and say that I agree with him. Hawkstone is pretty good.”
