"Strays and waifs of all shapes, sizes and colours simply find their way to her door."
Philip Tibenham reports from an unusual pub in Whitley Chapel, Northumberland. Pub owner Mollie Corby has turned the pub into a sanctuary for stray pets. At present, Molly has seventeen cats, three dogs, several pigeons, and a mouse in the pub. The dogs don't chase the cats, and the cats don't bother the mouse or the pigeons.
How has Molly fostered this spirit of animal fraternity in her pub? Do people think she's a bit of a crank?
Originally broadcast 30 January, 1974.

Exactly as I am. I gave up on people years ago but my animals who are all waifs and strays, are my life

A proper old fashioned lady who cares, those were the days.

Cat Cafes 40 years before they became popular.

@Wintersmith12 Год назад

Who would have known that the first cat cafe was in the north of England rather than Tokyo! 😄

Another wonderful gem from the BBC Television archives.

Can't express accurately how adorable this woman is. I lost my young pup last year and understand her fully

Totally agree with her and always have. I have taken rescue Border Collies my whole life and they are the purest souls imaginable. I have always found that people who "don't like" animals forget firstly that we are all animals and secondly they have never taken the time to spend any constructive time with our fellow inhabitants of the planet. Which is essentially what we all are.

Anyone fancy a pint?

The only worthwhile humans are the ones that the average person would think are a little mad and yet these 'mad' people harm no one and are much kinder than the average person.

@cherylreid-panasiewicz6485 Год назад

Lol, that dog was going mad to eat that cat on her lap 😂

Back when they reported real news

@BinnyBongBaron_AoE Год назад

I googled it and of course, I can't find any information about it. Pity, I wonder what happened to the pub.

@MichaelBosley Год назад

Like many pubs old pubs, it's just a private residence now. Whitley Chapel isn't a big place, so you can find it quite easily on Google Maps.

@@MichaelBosley I used to call in to 'the clickim inn' with my brother getting on to 50 years ago ! Always a good pint and a lovely country atmosphere. Just down the bank was the Dipton mill inn' and then down into Hexham.

(2:45) Apparently, she had to let him know that she was the boss. Yeah, I keep telling myself that, too. Everyone else knows the truth, including the dog, it seems.
