Every film with Jack Hargreaves is pure deceleration in a hectic time. thanks for uploading👍
As always, a beautiful break from the MAD world we live in at the moment
Absolutely agree.. sadly we have to go back to.it....😢😢😢
24 minutes of gold ❤
Bless you Dave Knowles for sharing these
Dear old Jack - a legend NEVER to see the likes of again. The saying goes - 'When an old man dies, it's like watching a library burn' - how true in the case of Jack. R.I.P. Jack, thanks for everything you taught us.
I've never heard that phrase before, but how patently true, especially in the case of good old Jack here.
Entire livelihoods and working knowledge never to be seen or heard again.
I consider myself so lucky to be born in a gentler, less hectic time - especially as a youngster.
Dave Knowles is a gem to release these. I wonder what percentage of people under 30 (or even 40) watch these?
Like the phrase!! Very true
Always a pleasure to see Jack again. Thanks for posting Dave.
I shall be out fishing with one of my cane poles today. Admittedly heavier length for length than a carbon version but easily handled once one has mastered the technique. At 19ft, it is by modern standards short and restricts the angler to margin fishing but I doubt it is any heavier or less easy to use than a modern 16 metre version. These films take me straight back to my schooldays, they were essential viewing. Thanks so much for posting them.
He magically takes me back in time... just wish i could stay there.😓☺
Again another great step back in time !!
With what’s going on Today in our country I think we all yearn for the old days; thanks for sharing again; lovely films.
Glad you enjoyed it Terry
It means so much watching Jack again. It takes me back instantly. Thank you Dave.
Thank you so much for posting these Dave, they are little gems of British life!
I remember these programmes first time around. The hunt away dog never caught on, not in south Wales anyway. Border collie still rules. 7:40 7:42
Many thanks for yet another great programme from the finest presenter
Thank You for posting a Fishing Video with Jack.
Jack introduced me to fishing through these wonderful episodes 50+ years ago. I would have been only five when I started watching these. Used to watch them every weekend when they were on or later repeated. Such an influential man. I have nothing but respect for his quiet manner and balanced opinion. But given his background and knowledge, I doubt many then or now could hold a light to him. The second part is just as good, and I first learned about the Huntaway dog through him. Like many subjects, for me he was the authority. Miss him so very much, and quite quickly the albums of the series were no longer available. I do have two of his books, which give me much pleasure to read.
I shall say it again, thank you for sharing these wonderfula nd still relevant videos.
Well that’s something I never knew until tonight proper sheep dog !!! Always look forward to the first Sunday of the month from now on !!! Thanks Dave 👍
I enjoyed watching out of town when I was young ,am now 55 I still enjoy watching it very relaxing.
Looking at these old videos reminds me that England was once beautiful, summers were balmy and dry, spring was fresh and warm, autumn was crisp and dry, and winter was cold…now it’s just cloudy, rainy and everyone and everything is miserable! It really is not like the old days!
Never saw the appeal of pole fishing.What a palaver ? Always great to hear from Jack .Hugely enjoyable stuff.
@earlgrey69...1 sugar in mine please.😉
It doesn't have to be like that with pole fishing.. I have poles but no longer than 8.5 mtrs which means you probably use 4 sections at the most but usually 3 is enough for me. Some match anglers have 16 mtr poles and they can reach to an island from the bank. But then you need to have a lot of room behind you to ship it back.And as you say it can be a palaver. The great thing about pole fishing is the accuracy of where you can place your bait. You lower it in exactly where you want it. Much more accurate than casting a float. My favourite type of fishing is rod/reel/float but I pole fish often.
Fishing a short pole, with a similar length line, is the most jolly thing.
Fantastic I could listen to Jack all day.
I remember seeing Sowerbuts cane roach-poles being used on the River Thames in the early 1960s ! About 1962 I bought a 18ft roach-pole made from Burma Cane think made in Japan that I used on many occasions to catch Roach & dace that gave immense amount of pleasure! I still have it !
I could do with a couple of joints lying alongside me now 😉
Marvellous TV👍
It's definitely good to have weed in your swim 😂
Lol!!🤣
@@davidbarnes241 a big roach is not always a good thing 😂
Hi Dave! Having my own perspective on the world tempered with Jack's always does me good. Thanks!
Life seemed more simple back then and more laid back. I really love watching these old episodes, takes me back to my childhood. Thanks for posting!!
Thanks Dave, enjoyable, I remember the pole bit, but forgot about the sheep dog, fond memories.
Thank you. Do enjoy these videos.
Thanks Dave for sharing this video 👍👍
Well, there's a surprise - an episode I hadn't seen before! Thanks for showing that lovely piece of nostalgia Dave. I wonder what reel Jack is using on his rod? I still have my set of Garcia Michell's in perfect order stored!
Thank you
Another ace Dave, cheers
Imagine the weight of that reed pole with all those brass fittings! Also, that dog was incredible, predicting and controlling the movement of every single sheep with mathematical precision.
This is fantastic please post more of jack
I must admit a big fan of cane rods I still use to this day lovely memories.
A pleasure to watch , many thanks for sharing Mate.
My pleasure Robert
Love this series.
Huntaways are primarily hunting dogs these days in NZ. Nice to see one in actiom driving the sheep though.
They're truly tireless things!
Another wonderful Jack Hargreaves programme! Thanks for that!
My pleasure! I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Love watching Jack.
More to come!
Thank you once again for the very best in broadcasting.
Many thanks for this.
Super as always
Very enjoyable watch Dave. My time in angling started in the early 70's and my first pole was a French one made of fibre glass that cost 5 pounds. 50 years ago this month i once won a match using it on the River Trent at Winthorpe when i was 17. Happy days.
I'm watching from rural NZ, and most of my neighbours have hunterways. A fine dog indeed. I remember Dave Sallow from my teen years reading the Angling Times. It was great to see him in this episode.
Oh! Jack used an ABU Cardinal (54?) reel. I’ve got five of those Cardinals (53, 2x54, 55 and a 57) in my den!
I remember one of the old out of town episodes, in which Jack spliced a willow wand onto a piece of hazel to make a fishing rod. I believe that the line was made from horse hair.
If only we could go back
Cool...
Thanks for the memories.
Dave Swallow, of centrepin reel making fame!
Thank you for your video, God pay ❤
Another interesting look at the countryside thanks to Jack. Thanks as always Dave
We could do with more of these vids showing Britain in its best light
I loved this !!!
Had to laugh when Jack said the end of the pole would just miss the cabbages, more like the studio floor.
Don’t spoil everyone’s illusions many think it is a real shed…..😸😸
Lovely trip down memory lane. I'm still using a swing tip.
Amazing episode, I look forward to their appearance so much.
15:15 that landrover survived at least until December 2002 when its last tax ran out.
The quality is supurb..... great work - who did the cover of Recuerdos de la Alhambra
Huntaway is fine for driving out but nothing will touch an isds collie for bringing in.
if i could turn back time
Who would've thought Kenny Everett a Fisher bloke. Meanwhile jack casually smokin a pipe and still banging em out. Yeah.
I am a child on a wet Saturday in the eighties again.
Bought out of town dvd collections, 1 and 2, AND old country box. I bought an old ps3 to play them.
The Irish version of this is Dapping and is great fun with mayfly as bait for Brown Trout. Their pole is about 16’ long
Where is that Rod now?
In the hands of some lucky bugger & still being used I hope.
That "rod" is a "pole". There's a big difference.
@@CB-xr1eg Do you have it?
@@nw8000 Wish I did.
Jack always calls the first war the kaisers war. I bought one of those pole rods from a bootsale, only used it twice hated the thing.
It's not a pole rod, it's a pole. 2 different things, despite Jack calling it by both names.😂😂
Is he pushing that 34 footer out of the fire exit of the set😂
The collies at the poncy dog shows have very little to do with the working dogs. But the NZ dog was doing great too. It doesn't have to be one or the other. But the collies are great sheep dogs and great companions. Highly intelligent and utterly loyal once you have earned their respect.
Id say it was the owners who were "poncey" rather than the dogs.
Working bearded everytime
I have just been watching about Border Force Control Tax and Pension.
Couldn't take anymore and Switched to Sanity and Good Old Jack Hargreaves - SANITY.....
I have a question that i hope someone can answer.
Does anyone remember a fishing programme from the early 70's, introduced by a heavy built man, i think, with a beard. It was that programme that got me into fishing as a small boy.
The only fishing programme that matches your description would be John Wilson, I believe the show was called 'Go Fishing' but that started in the 80's. Some episodes are still available on UA-cam if you take a look.
@@LaysAndLore
No, it's not John Wilson, but thanks for your reply.
Oliver Kite
@@user-ln4be3ul5d
I've just Googled Oliver Kite, and he died in 1968. I can see in my mind's eye the presenter I'm talking about, and it doesn't look like Mr Kite, but thanks for the reply.
Angling with Terry Thomas I think it was. Be around the late 70s.
That's what got my interest in fishing....1978 when I first went with my elder brother in law.
Huntaway bit like Heeler Kelpie ??
No mention of the fact that hunters y bark to move the sheep
Lovely, in a world that has become so dangerous.
I wish i could buy a long pole for £400 .😂
I wonder why the farmers are importing Huntaways from NZ instead of using Smithfield Collies again.
Thanks Dave, I actually remember This when it first went to Air (I must be going Joe Biden)
Don't panic tinky. Biden can't even remember his name😉
Pole fishing is nothing like this nowadays. I used a pole is those days but have up as I found it a cumbersome method.
I've never seen anyone pole fish but I've read plenty of articles. I can't say it appeals to me.
:-)
Curious as to your spelling 'carbon Fibre' the American way ,seeing as it was the English that developed it.
I'd put that down as an error rather than anything else.
Jack Hargreaves lied about his family. They were not farmers; his father was a travelling salesman. But I always enjoyed thr programmed.. just treat what he says about his childhood as a bit of poetic licence.
Love these but do wonder if all the ewes were ever reunited with their lambs ?
Yes it does make "ewe" wonder.😂
Is that Peter Sutcliffe?
Peter Sutcliffe isn't even Peter Sutcliffe these days.
I don’t understand the first part of this programme. Why didn’t that bearded chap, (Dave Swallow??), kill and eat all those fish which he caught?
Absolutely ridiculous. Is he so rich he doesn’t have to eat the fish he caught?
Your name says it all. .
You fish for sport, not to kill them. You aren't allowed to kill them. Apart from trout eels and salmon, we dont eat river fish.
They’re not fish, buddy. They are crabs, which we all know are inedible.
@@tomwinterfishing9065 Come on guys don't take his bait, look at his name, he's trolling.
@@CB-xr1eg
Of course you mustn’t take my bait. You mustn’t take anybody’s bait - including that belonging to Jack Hargreaves or his pal.
If you took our bait - how could we fish? Even if we stupidly don’t eat what we catch but simply put it back in the water.
I bet medieval peasants fishing (probably illegally) that stretch of water wouldn’t put back what they caught.
Nice bit of fish - make a pleasant change from the medieval English peasants diet of bread and cheese.
its nice to listen to him but there are hints of distasteful hubris and arrogance that are offensive.
Offensive is a bit harsh. He's just a man with his own opinions. It's interesting he doesn't show a distaste in his comments on nitrogen fertiliser. I thought he'd be against that kind of thing.
Please give 4 or 5 examples of these hints of distasteful hubris and arrogance that you found offensive, otherwise it's just words from you.
It is a shame how many modern minds are trained to interpret difference of expression as a personal attack, while liberals are ready to identify this in what they call the right they are it seems unable to perceive this feature in themselves, dod.
Jack bless him was not like that and worked with the young long haired of my now old generation, and in many ways expressed support for us, labourers and folk like travelers when all were against them.
@@Frank_Nemo I'm entitled to my opinion. don't try and Patronize me Saxon
@@dodditude So, it turns out that you are just an empty windbag with no answers at all. Thanks for clearing that one up.
