🎬Jack Hargreaves and Stan Bréhaut came over to the New Forest on 26th December 1979 to follow the annual Point To Point race across the Forest. The meeting place for the race was near the High Corner Inn and the finish a few miles away at Stoney Cross. Stan visited the New Forest earlier in the year to film the opening shots.
This sequence has been restored and upscaled for NFG Media Archive, so can now be viewed in high definition for the first time.
The surviving Out Of Town episodes can be purchased on DVD and Blu-Ray. The recently discovered 'Lost Episodes' are also now available to buy.
Our thanks to Gudrun Fowler and Mike Womersley at Northam TV Centre for their help and advice.

Another bonus of these old vidoes is seeing the cars that are now gone. The names still spring to mind.

Brilliant. Doesnt look "bitterly cold" though, like Jack said. Nobody wearing gloves and no frost. 😉
