And if you believe this film you still won't know. The people who were found guilty are on record so there's no question of where they came from. If the makers of this film did some proper research then they could have told the correct story - but they didn't. Of the eight men found guilty of causing the death of the bears, six were from the Ruardean area, one from Drybrook, and one from Harrow Hill. All those found guilty are listed at deanweb.info/history5.html.
@@paulwebb6087 Your comment is hardly worth responding to, given your demonstrable ignorance of the English language and your inability to understand what you've attempted to read. However, for the record, everything in my comment is 'correct' so I don't need to 'get it right'. If you disagree with the facts as recorded in the relevant historical documents, then feel free to put forward your evidence.
Wow. I worked in Shire Hall, Gloucester, and a lot of my colleagues were from the forest. It was a sort of running joke to say to them "Who killed the bear" and "Who put the pig on the wall to watch the band go by?"
My great grandfather "spickie Kight" was a well known slaughter man in Cinderford, he would kill the pigs with a pick axe hence the spickie in his name ,"what dim die of old butt ,nothing serious,,,,lol
Brilliant bit of footage, thank you for uploading. 28 years in the forest and I was never sure on the story.
