absolutely fantastic episode of this series. Brings tears to my eyes when i think of such British folk.

Sad to hear of the passing of Big Jack. A great man in all respects, much admired. RIP Jack.

This is the best show i have ever watched on KZbin, Jack was a brilliant documentary presenter on these subjects !

[@dinx556]

Was a gamekeeper and later river keeper, now retired. Jack Charlton was a childhood hero and I had all Archie Coates books, this is a lovely vignette of how it used to be.

First time I have seen this ,jack comes across as someone who is at peace with himself . Genuine guy . The other guy is very knowledgeable in his field . Pardon the pun . A great watch .

Two great sportsmen. Such a sad loss.

[@andybrown223]

I also had this and the rest of tape, brilliant to see it again in all its glory.2 legends thank you.

[@Tony-outdoors]

Remember this when it was first on TV back in the day, watched the whole series. As a boro lad I've always had a affection for Jack as I loved watching the boro when he was manager, a real no nonsense decent man sadly no longer with us. Rip JACK

Thanks for sharing it's years since I've seen this

[@ronprince1478]

Thank you gentleman, you make me feel better about the world.

[@saifkhan9889]

Thanks indeed, love to watch again after 30 years or more, drove back me in my teen age, still remember it's music, conversation tips and each scene.

[@matthewdickson7838]

Imagine these on tv now... He's frightfully posh for a pigeon shooter

[@matarikitamaiti3493]

The countryside is loved and worked by all classes and backgrounds. Beaters sharing a gin with landlords is what it's about.

[@leecoomber3877]

RIP jack ,hopefully they wont have the league against cruel sports up there my man.

[@matthewbuckland5461]

Perfect.

[@castrolgtx5064]

It's 30 years since I saw this, it was on video tape at the time as well as the rest of the jacks game video tapes i watched,, thank you so much for taking the time to download this really takes me back to shooting the way it should be, not the over used modern tech that's around today, the old days of field craft seem to be dying out unfortunately.

[@archieblake1967]

Eric I'm 15 and I have been brought up with Fieldsports- my father is a full-time gamekeeper and named me after Archie himself, and I too want to become a gamekeeper, so hopefully with more young people who share my passion and thoughts the sport will live on no doubt

[@LochTaupo]

@@archieblake1967 Archie, I know it’s been many years since you made this comment, but did you end up becoming a gamekeeper?

[@keithchegwin1604]

No proper shoot is complete without a bottle of scotch to keep the chill off. ;)

[@danielw5850]

Marvellous: two Englishman, armed to the teeth and sporting a bottle of Irish Whiskey!

[@pussypostlethwaitsaeronaut8503]

J&B Scotch Whisky is British (made in Scotland, which is a country in northern Britain) and is not Irish. xx
