Beautiful

Is it possible to get permission to use clips of this for my own vlog work?

The guy serving at 0:45 looked uncannily like Leonard Rossiter

And its still held every year.

No way is that 400 square miles not even 100 square miles but a lovely video

Love this. The film was part of my childhood. Just wiped a tear at Josh Gifford

Did not know the crown estate owned the new Forrest.

I remember as a little lad on the slide at Bolingbroke Playground in Battersea. Watching her come past on her way to Brighton having come through Clapham Junction. All of her engine included in the Pullman colours. Hope they bring her back we need nostalgia. I'd book to ride on her.

Bring her back.

Innocent days no WiFi no phones No druggies cheap petrol cheap Food

That’s my great great uncle

brilliant.. great way of life .. happy days indeed. i hope they are still at it.

Brilliant. Doesnt look "bitterly cold" though, like Jack said. Nobody wearing gloves and no frost. 😉

long after my time this one, i last rode in that in 1964 !!!

Another bonus of these old vidoes is seeing the cars that are now gone. The names still spring to mind.

Fantastic......

I grew up around the New Forest and often heard of this. Interesting film.

I hope that England's beautiful culture and country are preserved for all time. Especially in these current days of globalists trying to destroy the precious history of so many peoples.

18:40 „These large wasps“? What’s their specific name, please?

Superlative, evocation of place and time which ignites history, rights and wrongs……. Now I understand what happened to my own beloved Enfield Chase north of London whoose scraps I grew up in as a child…… and which has ‘shaped’ me Thank you for this 29 year old ‘gem’……..

I recall seeing this, as a kid. Thanks for posting!

The narrator doesn’t sound like Barnaby.

Beautiful place ; we dont hv them in ireland , the english cut 'em all down

It is beautiful to see the rhythm of life of our ancestors, as well as the natural world that we are part of, body and soul. Ytene, lovely.

I hate snakes

Very boring out of date production.

Are you, by any chance, the John Nettles from the show Midsomer Murders, aka Tom Barnaby? If so, how cool. Thank you for this video, either way. Quite an interesting subject.

Fantastic cinematography

Absolutely beautiful to watch and listen to to calm the senses. ❤

Have you explored the beautiful Royal Forest of Dean stunning very ancient oaks and chestnut and beech trees.😊

Brilliant documentary loved every atmospheric second of it

It is interesting to note that when the BBC first released this on video, they decided to call it 'Ytene The Ancient Forest', removing the word 'England's', so as to not sound too parochial. 🎬newforestgateway.org/Media-Archives/Film-Archive Has lots more New Forest Films

THANKYOU MR BARNABY...

Back then we always went on outings in our Sunday best! Great documentary. I also remember picnicking on roadside verges perilously close to passing traffic and rattling as lorries went rushing by whilst we tucked into our sarnies!

Connifer plantations are so sterile.

Great all round when's the next one!

So what IS the rare fungus that only grows on the dung of horses grazing natural pasture?? It would have been good to know! Some of us are interested in such things. Yes, I know this film is 30 years old, but it falls short of the standards of the time, when I was also a scriptwriter.

It’s a shame the scriptwriter didn’t know a bit more about forestry, or have a s riot editor to corral things like confusion between pollarding and coppicing. Not a bad programme, but lightweight when it came to giving the historical truth about how a privileged elite took everything and limited the commoners to the bare minimum on land that had once been theirs to share. Andnothing has changed. Britain is still infected with the cancer of feudalism that holds a tiny minority can own all the land and its resources ( think of Crown rights over any mineral wealth you might discover on your property). This suppression of or people’s rights will never end until the populace stops tugging its forelock to the rich and powerful and gets on with serious land and wealth reforms.

Father European badger

Mother European badger

the words, “hunters, farmers, foresters” become despicable in this context, signaling the demise of old-growth woodlands

EAT more meat

Its not an original forest but man made by Willian the Conqueror who forcibly removed the original English for his hunting activities.

I wonder what changes have happened since 1995. Nature will survive in spite of us I believe.

Packham needs to get a proper job as he is obviously desperate now. Compared to hundreds of yrs ago there are far far fewer deer in the forest

Not sure quite why the introductory music would be Irish (at least it sounds Irish to me) considering this documentary is about The New Forest in Southern England ! We have an ancient forest atop Shooter's Hill, in S.E.London, which the local people have had to battle to have protected status against its destruction by construction companies. Once such a forest is destroyed, it cannot be so easily replaced, nor should it be.

We know that Chris is 'Marmite' (love or hate) to many people. He is however, in a position to raise public awareness of a perceived problem. The important thing is to encourage dialogue between all the interested parties. Commoners, Verderers and the various national bodies. Get the balance right to encourage, tourism, wildlife and farming. If there are to be farming subsidies across the UK, make sure they are fair to all. If we avoid personal comments, a constructive narrative begins.... There is much to be gleaned from visiting the various websites including: newforestcommoner.co.uk verderers.org.uk newforestassociation.org newforestassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/NF_Grass_Final_Report.pdf hlsnewforest.org.uk/projects/verderers-grazing-scheme/

He should stick to kids tv.

Go vegan

Chris always talks crap
