But it shows a lot about farming in the early 1950's

Others worth watching are the Union Pacific one on potatoes and the Potato Harvesting in Canada.
Well it is a wet Sunday!

Nice one Brian, nothing wrong with Nuffys, after all, I suspect the E1A wouldn't have been what we know and love without them - OK Ford omitted some of the BMC worse features, like the post knocker axles, top speed, turning circle & clutch changing without splitting but they did get the colour right, especially the Nuffield Orange grilles in all models, which it is well known the Basildon Boys did to annoy Mr Morris' Men.
Its been a nice afternoon over here in the sundrenched East

I don't really think I should say this but I had a 460 nuff & it knocked the spots off my favourite super major for pto horsepower & drawbar power
my missis wanted some new windows,and it was my least favourite tractor so she had to go (we don't talk about it)

'she had to go'
That seems a bit harsh - couldn't you just have sold a tractor and bought the windows?
