20th July, BBC2's Top Gear programme included a feature where
presenter Jeremy Clarkson, driving a 4x4 painted like a fox and
trailing fox scent, was "hunted" by the Ledbury foxhounds and
co-presenter Richard Hammond riding Harry the hunter. Clarkson claimed
that "Top Gear has saved the countryside" - see if you agree by
watching the feature on BBCi
here . The feature begins at 47minutes 50 seconds and will be
online until Sunday 27th July 2008. |

A New Hunting web site: -http://www.themastersvoice.co.uk/
Aims: to create a united network of hunting folk across Britain who
want something done about this ludicrous Hunting Act 2004; to champion and
help co-ordinate the work of Vote-OK; work in tandem with Countryside
Alliance, MFHA, AMHB and the Council of Hunting Associations; remain stoic
and positive with our magazine content to bolster morale, and help secure
the future of hunting with hounds in Britain.
