Paul is off to a stag and buck happy hunting ground in Hungary. The beasts are thick on the ground and he has to stalk carefully to get the one he wants. Meanwhile, the black grouse lek is underway in the UK’s uplands and, because of low traffic during lockdown, they are lekking in the middle of the road. News editor Ben O’Rourke meets grouseshooter James Mawle to go in search of the birds. And Charlie has a bird table with a problem. A vermin problem. He gets out the .22 and waits at an upstairs window. There’s Bargain Hunter, David is on the News Stump and Charlie has Hunting YouTube to round up this week’s episode of #FieldsportsBritain
