The New Forest today stands at a crossroads. For 900 years it has remained relatively unspoilt, providing a refuge for shyer animals such as badgers, deer and foxes. But the combined pressures of thousands of visitors, keen to 'get back to nature,' and the harvesting of the trees, are threatening the Forest's very existence.

An Omnibus film on George Stubbs (1724-1806), probably the greatest animal painter that this country, or any other, has ever produced.
With Dinsdale Landen as George Stubbs
Body-snatching, human dissections, midwifery and dissections of horses contrasting with his role as the fashionable portrait painter of horses and their owners shows the dilemma that Stubbs found himself in during his career. On the one hand his thirst for anatomical knowledge and precision and, on the other, the necessity for making a living in an age of patronage.
