Martin Clunes & John, Murray and Bob Jackson
Matt Baker tows The Petcast caravan to Dorset to meet Martin Clunes on his farm, alongside his dogs including Jack Russells John and Murray and blind cocker spaniel Bob Jackson. Martin describes his “forever place,” how he and Philippa bought 100+ acres for a pony field that became a full farming venture with Pol Dorset sheep, and building a 3.5km perimeter track that transformed life for riding and dog walking. He reflects on childhood pets, boarding school responsibilities with animals, moving to Dorset with their first cocker spaniel, and the chaotic early months with littermate terriers that required intensive training. Martin also discusses heavy horses and Clydesdales (Bruce, Ronnie, and Patrick), taking them to a hospice, filming animal programmes worldwide, keeping sea monkeys and bird feeders, and takes part in the Petcast quiz before wrapping the episode. Martin's new book Training John and Murray is out now! This episode is sponsored by Harringtons. 📣 Follow us!
