    BBC - Storyville - Trophy: The Big Game Hunting Controversy

    Thank you for the link Not watched it yet but will do so at the weekend These days I fear for anything on the BBC - they have long since abandoned editorial impartiality. Their weekly show, Countryfile, has an absolutely terrible reputation in the countryside, but that's no surprise really
