A-Hunting We Will Go

Episode Number: 14    Season Num: 3    First Aired: Monday May 4, 1992    Prod Code: n/a
On the day the local hunt meets at Arlington Grange, a strange young hunt saboteur, Gordon Ferrar, arrives at the Grange with injuries - but very soon he is suffering no more.

In looking into his death, it turns out that Ferrar was not quite unknown to some of the regulars. Elizabeth Peacock had lost her horse, Phantom, in a road accident caused by Ferrar's hunt protesters. Vivienne Scarlett had once had an affair with Ferrar - Mustard was jealous of him, and had beaten him up. And Vivienne wanted to keep her secrets. Meanwhile, Ferrar had claimed to have a video of Professor Peter Plum feeding a live fox cub to the hounds, which would have damaged his reputation.

Quotes

add »
Green: (his confession) I don't know what came over me. I've been part of the community for over fifteen years. All my friends are here, my flock, my roots. I've given everything to this parish, and I don't have the strength to go on to new ventures, to start afresh. That's what it would have meant. I just think the prospect was... so cruel, so unfair. I didn't go back into the kitchen to do him any harm. I don't know why I picked up the scissors. I just wanted to challenge him, but he laughed at me. There they were in my hands, and all I could see was his bare neck. And I forgot who I was. God help me, I actually forgot who I was! (edit)
Mrs White: After what you did to Phantom, I'm sorry I didn't let you bleed to death!
(edit)
Green: What in Heaven's name are you doing here?
(edit)
Plum: My wife is immensely rich and would have understood. (edit)
