Subject: RE: Countryfile 06/01/08 From: BB Date: 07 Jan 08 - 05:28 PM Thoroughly enjoyable programme. When we heard it was going to be about eccentrics, we groaned and thought it probably wouldn't be worth watching. We now find we're of the sort that they find eccentric!

Subject: RE: Countryfile 06/01/08 From: Ruth Archer Date: 06 Jan 08 - 06:32 PM just finished watching...there's also Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling, Woolsack Racing at Tetbury (with a glimpse of morris), and the World Gurning Championships at Egremont (won, ludicrously, by Michaela Strachan). Less folkie, but still bizarre, pursuits that were covered include pea-shooting championships and chicken racing. |

Subject: Countryfile 06/01/08 From: Ruth Archer Date: 06 Jan 08 - 05:56 PM Today's Countryfile TV programme was about Eccentric England, and had some good folkie bits in, including a piece on Haxey Hood: Countryfile this new "watch again for 7 days for free on your computer" service from the BBC is a bit good, isn't it? |
