It was a highlight, and a shock to me when Dr Marrs was so damn objective! Every scientist we hear on the subject has some wider political agenda, and the Dr was adamant that there is no place for bias in science. Seems to have gone down fairly well on the whole - with only a few anti comments, and even they are fairly accepting of what the film showed - with the exception of the raptor issue (that the NGO asked us not to approach!) We are planning some good stuff for our next documentary - although it may be a little controversial. I look forward to BASC's own documentaries in the future, with a more experienced videographer, bigger team and larger budget by far, they should be producing some rather special stuff...

As has been said, the anti-shooting lobby has found a real powerbase on social media and are really dominating the domain, and preaching to and possibly converting the apathetic. It may seem a silly thing to do to many of the older guard of shooting, but social media really does control how people think, and to not engage on these platforms with earnest is a mistake being made by many of the larger shooting organisations. Mainstream media has less sway than ever, you only need to look at your own screen time and see your usage of a variety of social media apps and look at the time you spend using that vs the time you use reading mainstream news. I have no doubt that is one was to look at the media departments of any anti shooting organisation they would put all pro teams to shame. It seems ridiculous that the shooting community rely on Fieldsports Britain, a private company, for their social media news updates. It is indeed possible for a small team to create a lot of content. At TGS we manage 3 videos a week minimum, yes there is a lot of studio stuff, but content is content - and content is King. Fieldsports Britain put out a weekly episode of 3-4 parts - with a filming and editing team of 2. BASC should be crushing it - I wish the applicant best of luck, but to make a difference BASC should be hiring 4 videographers and creating the best pro-shooting and conservation content in the UK. Hindsight is a powerful thing and I believe BASC will regret not doubling down on their social media presence NOW, in years to come.

I until recently owned a 17 year old imported toyota landcruiser pickup. If you can get one of these, they are the most reliable and rugged of cars. Anyone who has used one will say the same.

I second this, had the same problem with my dog a few months ago, and gave them a splash of apple juice with there meals, problem solved.
