Ancient Customs and Folk Traditions | BBC Archive presents...

The UK is a nation of traditions, folklore and rites whose origins have been obscured by the mists of time. People from every corner have been meeting up for hundreds of years to dance, drink, dress up or throw flaming torches about as a way of celebrating death, fertility, hope or local pride. And these peculiar practices have a way of clinging on, and surviving longer than you would imagine. A witches’ coven, a skeletal horse, Vikings, village rivalries and faceless musicians wearing straw masks all play their part in this video.
