5 out of 5 stars A Past Revisited   October 1, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

When I think back to my childhood in the Dorset countryside, one television program was a must. Friday teatime and I could be found in front of our Radio Rentals television, enjoying my half hour of Jack Hargreaves.

Now 30 odd years later, I was once again a captive of "Out Of Town" I think it's a shame that there are only 28 episodes left of this brilliant series. Jack Hargreaves had so much to teach, not only the country folk but also the townies, whom he was really directing these show at.

I know it was Jack's intention to get all young children who lived in towns, out into the countryside and for many it was the first time in their lives that they had seen real cows, sheep even pigs.

Jack Hargreaves provided a calm look at the many ways of country living and he is a man many still miss.

The DVD set has to be the most interesting and enlightening series I have seen for a long time and I know I will get many hours of enjoyment from this set.



5 out of 5 stars A Legendary Series, a Legendary Presenter   August 29, 2007

God bless Jack Hargreaves. I grew up watching Out of Town, and Jack, with such a mild but factual manner, always found ways to surprise you and show you the ways from a bygone age. The thing that I always remember when watching episodes of Out of Town was, 'Well blow me down, I never knew that is how they did that!' or 'So, that is what that thing is used for!' You always ended an episode wanting to know more, and Jack sometimes put out items for you to think about before the next episode which kept you captivated. This was Jacks way, and this series was just the best. Such a lovely series for adults and children alike, especially if, like me, you love the countryside and learning the old ways.
