Instagram star Dan Thor is a regular beater on the Brent Pelham shoot in Hertfordshire, but today he swaps his beating stick for his trusty Miroku, stoked up with Lyalvale Express steel cartridges, for a day on the peg. It’s a memorial day for his partner Shannon’s grandfather, and she is shooting too. Dan hasn’t drawn the best number, and after a thrilling first drive he’s out of the action. Meanwhile Shannon is in the hot seat, and buzzing after shooting four partridges for four shots – but how will Dan react to her success?
