Watching the pleasant Sunday evening fare accompanied by what DH calls "plinky plonky music" that is Countryfile....AIBU to wonder if
, in it's 33 year history (thanks wiki) , Countryfile has ever ever ever featured an interview with a gamekeeper, abattoir worker or fallen stock collection driver?

They've definitely featured gamekeepers.

Not the others though.

I think I've seen pieces on abattoirs.

A quick google search shows they got complaints in 2018 for a piece on animal activism.

There was a great piece in the Guardian fairly recently about a fallen stock driver.
Countryfile have done some pieces on the impact of bTB on farming families I seem to recall...

Guardian piece. More visibility of these perspectives would be helpful. www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/apr/13/the-knacker-the-toughest-job-in-british-farming?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

You mean 'Cuntryfile' It's not a farming programme. It's a country lifestyle programme. The last time they featured a dairy farm it got hundreds of complaints.
