.. And This is Morris Dancing

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Flanneled fools waving handkerchiefs on a village green - an instant image of rural England, used for selling butter, beer or England itself. Jim Lloyd looks behind the advertising cliches at the 20th-century revival of a pagan ritual, when he joins a thousand morris men from all over England for the Golden Jubilee celebrations of the Morris Ring.
