Is anyone watching this on BBC4? Takes me back to my early schooldays being taught by nuns through fear. Those poor dogs. I can’t take this trauma - going to watch “Rebus” for therapy.

I remember it the first time round - I couldn't bring myself to watch it now.

Just shows how much we have learned in the interim.

Mind you, after BW came all the pack/dominance stuff, and many people haven't moved on from that, including some professional trainers.

I was shocked at the belligerent sounding commands which were encouraged. You could see that the poor animals were intimidated. Difficult to explain, you’ll have to see it on iplayer.

I just remember "walkies" from her from my childhood. Although might've been when she was lampooned on comedy shows of the day.
