The Running of the Deer
Since wolves became extinct Britain's deer have had no natural predators. Man controls the animals, culling the population to maintain healthy herds - and to provide venison. But a small number of deer are also sporting targets.
Hunters claim that their pursuit and killing of the stags and hinds is the surest and most humane way of controlling them. Critics see deer hunting as an act of barbarity.
Ian Breach first looks at the pro-hunt lobby and meets members of the Devon and Somerset Stag Hounds. Next week the anti-hunt factions have their say. Director GARY JOHNSTON

Second of an eight-part series Forty years to the day after the first post-war British
Grand Prix was held there, William Woollard visits a much developed Silverstone circuit for the final round of the Formula 3 Championship. To complete his reports on the various training formulas leading to Grand Prix status, Tiff Needell track tests a Formula 3 and Formula 3000 racing car.
Forty years ago this month, the motoring world was astonished by the arrival of the Jaguar XK120. Frank Page reassesses a classic sports car that lifted a little of the gloom of post-war Britain. Plus a road test on the new Vauxhall Cavalier, and Chris Goffey investigates the arcane world of the salvage trade.
