The World About Us: The Way of a River

on BBC Two England

A portrait of the Test by Ronald and Rosemary Eastman
Each year, from April to September, dry-fly fishermen practise their art of deceiving trout on this famous Hampshire chalk stream. The moods of the river and its wildlife throughout a year are also shown, even going underwater for some remarkable glimpses of the lives of the trout themselves.
