I can’t watch it again since I’m still at work. But I’m still going to creep on the discussion and see what I can remember from when I did watch it!

A UK version of that is definitely needed to counter the Moonbat/Bonnin/BBC effect. What about crowdfunding it? Or am I being dangerously radical and it's easier to sit at home and moan about out lot in life.

well if those who should be helping are not going to I guess we have no choice but to find other ways, Not sure what kind of cost something with high production value like than would cost but crowdfund certainly could be one way to raise it

im sure it would be interesting to a big none farming audience

I hope some of the beef producers on this forum come and join in this thread, from the numbers that were fed up with the NBA's stance on climate change funds should be raised in no time. @JP1

When you think about it for just 30 seconds, we have a far easier task than does Canada. We have a densely populated country, that loves to spend its high days and holidays in the countryside, or more specifically the grazed countryside.

The countryside commission, as it then was, ran an 'eat the view' campaign. It was ahead of its time,. no-one really got it. Selling the idea that you have to eat red meat to preserve your open spaces should be as easy as falling off a log.

Yet instead we are fire-fighting a proposal from our own industry to put a £100 tax on our product. Its some sort of sick joke tbh.

There won’t be much countryside left in another 10-20 years with the insatiable demand for housing and HS2 carving swathes through pristine countryside.

in 30 mins there is opportunity to ask the guys who were part of this film how they got it from concept to reality, how did they fund it etc ?
