A TikTok user's trip to Jeremy Clarkson's farm revealed the length of the massive queue forming outside the Diddly Squat shop.

People travel from all over the country to visit the farm shop, which features in the Grand Tour presenter's Amazon Prime TV show Clarkson's Farm. Having seen the shop's journey from when it was first opened in 2020, people flock to Chadlington, Chipping Norton, in the hope of catching a glimpse of the star - and sampling his farm goods.

Captured in a recent video by a TikTokers, members of the public could be seen waiting patiently for their chance to enter Clarkson's Farm, where they can buy produce grown in the ex-Top Gear presenter's fields. One TikTok user, meggdrew16, used her visit as a chance to see how long it would take to get inside the shop after joining the queue.

Setting a timer on their phone and waiting at the Diddly Squat Farm Shop saw the user reveal "how long we queued to get into" the property.

A photograph of the back of the queue was taken and then a quick cut to 22 minutes later was seen as the TikTok showed the "slowly moving" line of people.

After 35 minutes a photograph of a sign was shown which told queue users there would be another 45 minutes of waiting to go. It read: "Wait Time: 45 mins." An image also showed there were "no dogs allowed in store" and that Diddly Squat was cash only.

Fifty-eight minutes into the queue and the farm was yet to be seen, but meggdrew16 said they were "getting closer" as their wait hit the hour mark. At one hour and 16 minutes, the TikTok user confirmed they could "see the shop now".

It would take another 14 minutes to make it to the front of the queue, meaning it takes an hour and 30 minutes to get from the back of the queue to the door of Diddly Squat farm.

Once inside they were seen "securing the goods" and left the farm with a less-than ideal bank balance. The TikTok ended with meggdrew16 writing: "An hour and a half and an empty bank account later."

Other TikTok users were less than impressed with the wait for the queue and what the shop has to offer. One wrote: "Is it really worth a 90 minute queue for a little farm shop?"

Another added: "Absolutely insane when a local farm shop sells the same produce (if not better) with no queue." A third wrote: "What day did you go? I want to go on a Friday in a couple of weeks but that queue is just a joke?"

Diddly Squat Farm Shop, located in Chadlington, Chipping Norton, has faced a few problems in recent weeks. Clarkson met with villagers amid worries over an increase in traffic to the area, drawing huge crowds to Memorial Hall in Chadlington.

Meanwhile, fans of the farm realised the harsher conditions of working the farm. A scene from the show, streaming on Amazon Prime, showed two of the farm's pigs give birth to piglets. The young animals sadly started to die over a few days, devastating fans.
