Thousands of students had a restless night anticipating one thing this morning.
And just like clockwork, Jeremy Clarkson delivered his annual A-level results day tweet.
The 65-year-old farmer from Chadlington sends out some words of encouragement every year for teenagers who may be disheartened by their results.
This year, the motoring journalist boasted about building a helicopter landing pad in his garden.
He said on Twitter/X: "If your A-level results are disappointing, don’t worry. I got a C and two Us and here I am today, installing lights for a helicopter landing pad in my garden."

The tradition started in 2014 when he said: "If your A-level results aren't joyous take comfort from the fact I got a C and two Us. And I have a Mercedes Benz."
In 2015, he said: "If your A-level results aren't great, be cheered by the fact that I got a C and two Us. And I'm currently sitting in a villa in St Tropez."
The following year, Mr Clarkson wrote: "If your A-level results are disappointing, don't worry. I got a C and two Us, and I'm currently on a superyacht in the Med."
And in 2017, he tweeted: "If you didn't get the right A-level results, don't worry. I got a C and 2 Us, and my chef is preparing truffles for breakfast."
2018 saw: "Don’t worry if your A-level grades aren’t any good. I got a C and 2 Us. And I’m sitting here deciding which of my Range Rovers to use today."
If your A level results are disappointing, don’t worry. I got a C and two Us and here I am today, installing lights for a helicopter landing pad in my garden.

The first year of Covid, 2020, he wrote: "A-level results not great? Don’t worry, I got a C and 2 Us and I’m currently building a large house with far reaching views of the Cotswolds."
After that, he said in 2021: "If the teachers didn’t give you the A-level results you were hoping for, don’t worry. I got a C and 2Us and I’ve ended up happy, with loads of friends and a Bentley."
And in 2022, while on holiday, he tweeted: "Don’t worry if your A-level results are disappointing. I got a C and 2 Us and I’m currently holidaying on this boat."
In 2023 he said: "It’s not the end of the world if your A-level results aren’t what you’d hoped for. I got a C and 2 Us and here I am today with my own brewery."
Last year, he said: "Don’t worry if your A-level results aren’t what you were hoping for. I got a C and two Us, and here I am, 46 years later, with my own pub."
