Diary of a Village

on BBC Two England

One year in Heddington, Wiltshire. A documentary serial in seven parts 5: Of feuds and flags, pheasants and fêtes
May brings a double set-back for village schoolmaster John Stot hard. Voted off the Parish Council, he is foiled in his scheme for securing the Chairmanship to a friend. The Church becomes a Court for the day, as the Chancellor of the Diocese adjudicates on whether the Elizabethan flagon can be auctioned off to defray the cost of a new roof. It's pheasant-rearing time. Lord Shelburne's game-keepers need all their skill to bring the baby birds to the peak of their condition - in time to face the guns in the autumn.
