Whatever its human residents might think about Skinningrove, North Yorkshire, there's no place quite like it for its 3,000 racing pigeons. Every Saturday throughout the summer they're transported to the South of England, or over the sea to France. But they fly straight back - and the fastest home means money.Skinningrove's pigeon passion is seen through the eyes of the Rawson family - Cecil, Jean, Ken, Louie, George, and grandfather Charles.
