County Show: Part 2

Jim Davis and Jo Hayward

Available for over a year

This weekend sees the return of the Leicestershire County Show after a 7 year break. It's back, thanks in part to a mystery benefactor, some passionate fundraising and some serious hard work! Before that the show was a much loved annual event since it was started in 1833, only taking a break during the 2 wars and foot & mouth. They've moved too, from Melton onto a new site, situated near the Innovation Centre on the B6047 just outside Market Harborough. In Part 1 we heard how organisers are preparing for the event. In this part Chairman James Webb has been showing Jim around some of the attractions on show this weekend - starting with Icarus the bull.
