History

If there's one thing Stuart Hall was renowned for during his time as a local news presenter in the North West, it was never shirking a challenge. So far on this website, we've seen him as an air steward, tour guide and makeshift Father Christmas but here he - literally - immerses himself in his task.

He speaks to farmer Joss about the hazards of the job (not least the one that befell him) such as strained backs and the task of dragging ewes weighing ten stone into the dip.

Still, at least Stuart can look on the bright side - he'll be free of tics and any other nasties that may have been lurking after his visit to the farm!
