Trying to find the name of an old documentary series that i once saw on youtube about English country living and old ways of life of country folk that i think must have been from the 70's or 80's.

I imagine it was similar to the Jack Hargreaves stuff that exits (out of town/old country) and Anglia TV's Bygones series, but struggling to find what it was.

As ever any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks, i did think it had 'country' in the title but not sure. Unfortunately i don't think it was that looking at whats available on YouTube, but one to add to my list of this type of program.

I vaguely seem to think the one i'm after was also a bit of social commentary about by some semi renowned (of the time) old presenter, and the changing of life and ways in the countryside as modernity catches up with it (well from the 70's/80's modernity!)

still drawing a blank!

edit. to add i had the series (or the Wiki page and some YouTube) episodes of what i'm after on my previous laptop that went kaput so its frustrating i can't remember!
