krawnden 1,036 Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks for sharing stevo - 'Out of Town' was one of my favourite programmes as a kid. Lovely to see some of the old clips again. 1 Quote Link to post
keepitcovert 842 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Always good to watch jacks programs i remember when this was first shown and it started a ressurgence of people wanting whirriers, note no locaters just old school methods. Wish we had presenters like jack nowadays, all we see now is raving antis like chris packham, craven and oddie spouting their self opinionated crap, all combined they have about one tenth of the knowledge of the countryside that jack had. I really miss those days before all this politically correct crap came about. YIS KIC 4 Quote Link to post
Mister Gain 1,764 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Thoroughly enjoyed watching that, I found it interesting that at 8.57 minutes, one of the guys used the old dispatching technique which was commonly referred to as the 'rabbit punch', basically a heavy karate chop at the base of the skull behind the ears, whilst olding the rabbit up by the back legs. Going to have to get my Out of Town DVD box set back off my hunting mate, he's had it for 2 years Quote Link to post
neil cooney 10,416 Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 One of my heroes. Even though his show's were mostly about the old days there was no romanticism, he told it like it was. 1 Quote Link to post
