Under the Sun S08E03 · The Hunt

Overview

Fox hunting - which conjures up quintessential images of traditional rural England for some, and an outdated and barbaric practice for others - is under threat. As the political battle over banning hunting rages, this programme shows graphic pictures of the digging out and shooting of foxes, and the disposal of retired hounds. But for hunt servant Simon Hall, it all reflects the unforgiving laws of nature they see around them.
