[edit] Information
No one quite understands exactly how a pigeon finds its way home, having been driven hundreds of miles in the back of a lorry to be released and race back to its loft. But across the UK thousands of fanciers are staring into the sky awaiting the arrival of their treasured birds. This documentary delves into the world of the Rhyl pigeon racing club, a once-thriving community hub that has seen its membership dwindle over the years. Despite these challenges, the club's ageing members remain passionate about their beloved sport. And they have embarked on a determined recruitment drive, hoping to attract a new generation of pigeon fanciers. This is an insight into a world where hi-tech electronic chips and conveyor belt cleaning systems combine with good breeding and old-fashioned care and attention to produce the best racers. The Rhyl pigeon racers are intense rivals but also the best of friends. Is this a vanishing pastime or can they enthuse the next generation to share their passion for the world of pigeon racing?
