Can anyone point me in the right direction of some other dvd's worth watching regarding nature/bushcraft?

I bought these DVDs a while back. What a fantastic window on the past. The farm jumble sale is fancinating. Marvelously slow and measured and free of todays instant gratification that
seems to abound.

I picked up the set from the Range in W.S.M before xmas . I can remember he did a TV program called The old country as well.

Jack Hargreaves wrote a book about his childhood growing up on the Welsh borders, cant remember what it was called but it was a great read if you can find a copy...

Used to love that show - Sunday afternoon. You're right cbrdave - really slow and measured, but wonderful for it. Nowadays, it would be fronted by three twenty year olds in Berghaus jackets and beanies (all with degrees in media studies), or some idiot with a floppy hat and a bow tie, and the segments would be about 30 seconds each, though even they would feel too long.

Is that Jaded?
