Vinnie Jones fans will be pleased to hear that Vinnie Jones in the Country will be returning for a third season. According to a recent report, the Discover+ series has solid ratings, and viewers are keen to see more countryside action.
Jones has often played the hard man in film and on television, but this series represents an excellent way to experience his softer side. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you may want to binge-watch the first two seasons before the next one airs.
Series Follows Legendary Actor in the Countryside
It’s the combination you didn’t know you needed – Jones and a West Sussex farm. The lighthearted series follows the Snatch actor as he takes on various projects to turn his patch of land into a sustainable haven. You get to see the 60-year-old managing wildlife habitats, building owl boxes, and so much more.
The series also provides some insights into Jones’ life and career, which will be of interest to anyone who followed him from his early days as a footballer. He’s accompanied by a few other people, and the relationships between everyone involved add to the warm feeling of the series.
Could a Jones and Clarkson Crossover Be on the Cards?
Jones followed in the footsteps of another legendary British celebrity in Jeremy Clarkson, and both have their own areas of land that they tend to in rural UK. Clarkson’s Farm is one of the top offerings on Amazon Prime Video now, and that series has been commissioned for a fifth season already.
The reality documentary first aired in 2021 and has been a revelation since. Indeed, Jones referred to it as the “biggest thing to happen for the country for thirty years.”
However, there have been other reports that Jones was unhappy with the success of Clarkson’s Farm, because he claims to have had the idea first. Indeed, he pitched the concept to various broadcasters and started a YouTube channel before the Amazon Prime show was even released.
The best way to settle their differences could be to film some sort of crossover. It would be amazing to see the two on screen together, perhaps undergoing challenges on each other’s farms. The only problem is that the shows are streaming on different platforms, so it may be tough to strike a deal between Amazon and Discovery.
There’s still a chance that it could happen one day, though, as Jones is no stranger to a crossover. He has already moved between film, television, and stage, playing similar roles in each of those media.
He has also ventured into the world of roulette online, with the Vinnie Jones Roulette and Vinnie Jones Stories Roulette offerings. It all further highlights how the actor is willing to branch out if it’s something that a lot of people want to see.
Where Else Can Jones’ Fans See Him Currently?
Jones continues to be one of the most prolific actors in the business, having appeared in countless films over the years. He has a few movies in the pipeline currently, including Overtown, Hypnotized, Cross 4, and Reckless.
One of the best places to see Jones is in the Netflix series The Gentlemen. The first season was met with positive reviews, and a second season is on the way. Jones plays a groundskeeper, taking his love of nature to the role.
There has been no confirmation about when season three of Vinnie Jones in the Country could drop, but it’s likely to be towards the end of the year. This is an excellent series for people who want to see the formidable actor in a new light.
