| Description: | O'ER HILL & DALE. First pictures of 'a Hound Trial' - almost as popular as horse racing in the North of England. Sunderland, Tyne and Wear. C/U of two beagles straining at their leads. M/S of several beagles on leads - they sniff around the ground, wagging their tails excitedly. L/S of a crowd of people standing on one side of a field, a boy runs past dragging what appears to be a piece of meat on string, all at once a dozen or so beagles are released from the crowd, they run towards the camera. "The dogs find and follow an aniseed trail for 10 miles and cover the course in under half an hour!" M/S of several dogs sniffing around bushes and a dry stone wall before clambering over a ditch. L/S of several dogs chasing across a picturesque meadow. M/S of a group of dog owners calling encouragement to their animals - one woman seems particularly enthusiastic; she waves her arms and shouts. L/S of the dogs coming down a steep hill. | |
