British TV celeb Jeremy Clarkson announced a cancer diagnosis on the latest episode of Clarkson's Farm. 

The 66-year-old pre-warned Instagram followers it would be a difficult watch, without revealing why. 

He let out the news in a sombre chat with programme stalwarts Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland. 

UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking the one good thing that’s come of it is the number of men now talking about prostate cancer and the test. 

He says Clarkson’s shone a light on farming, and him making a full recovery from it and speaking about it will do a lot of good.
