Clarkson's Farm has returned with its fifth series, which fo.llows former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson through another year managing his Cotswolds farm in what has been described as the most 'personal' series yet

Among the fresh faces joining the Clarkson's Farm was Hannah Bourne-Taylor, whom Jeremy invited to the farm after voicing concerns about the absence of common farmland birds on his property. Jeremy revealed himself to be a passionate bird enthusiast, eager to implement more measures to protect the farm's avian inhabitants.

Hannah's devotion to birds was instantly apparent as she reacted with visible excitement upon spotting and hearing some uncommon species. She also left Jeremy completely astonished when she revealed she had permitted a bird to nest in her hair for 84 days.

However, Hannah quickly found herself at odds with farmhand Kaleb Cooper after it emerged that endangered nesting birds and their young would perish if they proceeded with ploughing the field earmarked for harvest.

The programme subsequently showed Jeremy weighing up both perspectives on the matter, as Kaleb argued they couldn't afford to delay several weeks for the birds to vacate their nests. Eventually, they reached a compromise that allowed them to protect the birds while still harvesting the fields.

Nevertheless, certain viewers were left underwhelmed by Hannah, taking to social media to suggest she had been 'rude' towards Kaleb while outlining why he couldn't harvest the field that particular day. Taking to Reddit, one user commented: "I just thought she came across as genuinely quite rude, and there were points i thought she was going to storm off set.

"She's literally just met these people, who are doing their best for their farm animals, and she acted like they were wanton idiots killing baby birds for fun," they added.

The comment section quickly filled with people sharing their opinions, as numerous users began speculating whether Hannah might be neurodivergent, citing her enthusiasm for birds as potential evidence of autism, despite her never having disclosed any such information publicly.

However, it appears Hannah has now addressed the 'allegations' after another Reddit user shared a link to one of her Instagram posts. They remarked: "She has responded to the allegations. What a gem."

In the clip, Hannah is filmed standing in a field dressed in denim shorts and a red plaid shirt tied around her waist.

She stated: "So the internet has diagnosed me with autism, so this is my impression of of Rain Man in light of hitting 100,000 followers, I am going to try to say 100 birds."

She proceeded to reel off various bird species, beginning with tits, including blue tits and great tits. She then moved on to seabirds, such as puffins, razorbills, and different varieties of gulls. She then goes on to list farm birds, which had featured prominently during her appearance on Clarkson's Farm, before rattling off numerous other species that sprang to mind.

People were quick to flood the comment section of the video with praise, with one person writing: "You star Hannah".

Another viewer added: "All I know is, I now stand in my garden with my Merlin app hearing things I have missed for 50 years, so thank you for that, it's amazing."
