Same thing happened with me and my son Lassie ......so ungrateful

Barry Hines, who wrote the book 'A Kestrel for a Knave', which was the basis for Ken Loach's 'Kes', has died. I first saw the film probably late 70's as a young lad and it fired a fascination and love

Because we live in a politically correct society and the college educated twats that run our country and film studios have little in common with working folk and the real world,Billy Casper is replace

Brian Glover was a family friend I never got to meet him unfortunately but by all accounts a real Yorkshire gentleman, fantastic film and great book..

 

RIP Barry

Brian Glover,his first film role,Colin wellend,i thought he wrote Kes,Brian as the PE teacher and the football scene,classic.

Must of read the gamekeeper a hundred times as a kid, it's the reason I went into game keeping and even tho I'm not a keeper anymore I'm sure my passion for all things countrysidey came from the magic in that book

It's one of my most treasured possessions as its kind of shaped my life, bit deep I know but it's true
