The sense of raw humor between Jeremy and his mother is fantastic. I know this scene is about 10/15 years old, but you can clearly see how these people are fond of one another.

As a proud Yorkshireman, I agree that Jeremy is correct about Nottinghamshire and Staffordshire.
My ancestors were Kilners, my grandma was a Kilner, from Yorkshire but I don't think I have a connection to the famous Kilner jar family lol, maybe a remote connection possibly.
His mother looks younger than he does.
My great grandfather was a millionaire doctor who did lots of charity for children. His wife and 6 children were left destitute after all the people that owned him debts refused to pay and every debt he owed was suddenly demanded paid by his widow.

According to wiki it was lost in a court case over the chimneys interfering with the clean air he is a great-great-great-great grandson of John Kilner. China is producing the Ravenhead name of the jar now.

interesting continuity at 4:54, jumps mother's house in Nottinghamshire straight into Chipping Norton Oxfordshire, whilst heading off to Yorkshire in a jump worthy of kevin Costner in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves :D

These Victorian era millionaires were very interesting. That whole era was. The architecture, the atmosphere, the raw capitalism. Now you get people getting stupendously rich who never even were desperate to be rich.
Jeremy looks older than his mum.
I am currently very confused because the narrator sounds EXACTLY like my history teacher... lol
I know it’s been said before, but it is ironic and sweet that Clarkson has truly gone back to his roots and is harvesting barley now.
"Giraffe " 😂😂
She’s amazing!
That thumbnail made me think that was Scotty Kilmer omg I’m dumb
Is a Kilner jar like a Mason or Ball jar for putting up preserves, jams pickles etc. ??
@KidMillions
4 жыл бұрын
Yes, same concept, but Kilner patented his design well before Mason. To avoid the patent Mason made the lid out of metal.
My grandfather's family were rich and no one knows what happened to the money it's common thing to happen
Who woul have thought, james may is Jeremy´s mother😂
❤️ Thank You ❤️
Jeremy’s Mum sounds like a wise woman.
My Great Great Great Grandfather is a a Ghost , at the Homestead Inn in Bracebridge Heath in Lincolnshire. Not much of a claim to Fame . But the saying goes there's always Ghost somewhere in your family .
Clarkson is so funny!
Lmao jeremy is always such a clown but he has so much respect for his mom.
How dare Clarkson insult Staffordshire like that!!
what his mother describes is a Mason Jar, the jar that one boils, as opposed to the flip lid jar, which I first saw in France.
Unless someone in the family has a n interest in this subject, it all fades away pretty quickly. We are lucky to have had one or two.

Sam Ludendorff Yeah, me neither- hence the outcome.
Shirley Gabrielle Clarkson passed away in April 2014, 1 year before Clarkson's row with the BBC. Based on Wikipedia information, this was filmed in 2008. "Shirley returned briefly to Home Farm and Burghwallis in June 2008 to film a piece for the BBC TV One Show to coincide with the launch of the book."
Was enjoying this, till he started on Staffordshire. And did anyone notice, as he waved his Mum tara, he didn't say Love you? Or am I the only one that did that?

Never mind your mother Jeremy, you can't event remember to put your seatbelt on before you start driving
0:38 Why does his mother sound like she's one of the "The Muppets"?
Killner jars would have been less profitable as fridges and freezers became in use, people start buying prepackaged fruit and preserves......
