We have all wondered why Pedigree Dogs Exposed took place with the seeming blessing and co-operation of the Kennel Club. Just maybe the answer was found in the weekend cupboard clear out.
Anybody remember “Passion for Pedigree?” It’s a television programme that has totally slipped from the memory. Back in the late 90s the BBC had [...]
You Tube or a dedicated website?

A day of rain and vague knowledge of “in there somewhere” caused a cupboard to be turned out. Four days later it still isn’t sorted as it takes a while to go through hours and hours of tape.
