Reflecting the religious world of a new generation. Presented by Alex Dolphin and Alastair Pirrie

Eric Ashby, one of the most patient of animal film-makers, has been watching the natural goings-on of this secluded area of southern England, and this film is the end result of two years of painstaking work.
