Additional information

Grabbarna på Fagerhult = Fellows/Boys of the beautiful wildness or Followers of the Beautiful Nature - Swedish speakers, is this a good translation?!

A programme seemingly about Swedish hunting and wildlife traditions with Benny only speaking at the end of the piece.

It would appear he wass there to promote his Swedish birdsong album Fågelsång i Sverige which Nils Linman, sitting next to Benny, held up to the camera right at the end.

What he's doing in a programme about hunting I can't work out as it's all in Swedish. If any kind Swede can provide a translation of what he says I'd be very grateful. Is he pro-hunting for example? I always thought he was an animal lover. I hope I don't find out something about Benny I'm not going to like!

WARNING: Immediate scenes of killing poor innocent ducks minding their own business, scenes of hunting deer and of dead wild boar (not nice).  Fast-foward to 7:06 to skip all that and go straight to Benny because, although the programme lasts 15:30, Benny doesn't actualy appear until about half-way through and doesn't speak until 13:30.
