A programme for enthusiasts We Always Race 'em Hungry
Tonight author and animal lover Phil Drabble goes to the Loweswater and Brackenthwaite Annual Show to see what explains the passionate interest of Lake District people in hound trailing.
A thousand enthusiasts stand in the rain of an autumn day to watch 20 hounds race each other over a mountain trail of aniseed for a top prize of £10. Is the strength of the sport the betting, a liking for dogs, or the urge to breed a winner whatever the cost?
