Diary of a Village

on BBC Two England

One year in Heddington, Wiltshire. A documentary serial in seven parts 2: 'A Cracking Christmas, and a Stormy New Year ' .
Christmas is coming. A calf is born in a lowly cattle shed, the choir goes carol singing round the village, and Auntie Vi has a fall and has to spend Christmas in hospital. January comes in like a lion, and the old ash by the T-junction becomes unsafe. It is felled, but it falls on the power cables and farmer Tyler has no electricity at milking time. There are storms too at the village meetings - who shall be caretaker of the village hall; why does the vicar accuse the schoolmaster of blackmail? On top of that there's bad news about the church's flagon. Narrator DAVID PRITCHARD.
