Pig Business, Factory Farms + Food Industry Corruption with Lady Tracy Worcester

submitted by djechelon on 04/15/14 1

Factory farms and food corruption are discussed with PIG BUSINESS filmmaker, Lady Tracy Worcester. We look at the toxic way that animals are being handled for mass consumption, the issues that plague the food economy and big agriculture. Will the food industry ironically starve us all? We discuss the horrors of antibiotic resistant bacteria, the contamination of vegetables and the entire food chain in what has become a massive economy of death. We look at the costs of cheap food in this Buzzsaw interview hosted by Sean Stone. GUEST BIO: Tracy Worcester is a daughter of the Hon. Peter Ward (a younger son of the third Earl of Dudley and formerly chairman of the family business, Baggeridge Brick PLC) and his first wife, Clare Baring, the only child of Giles Baring. She is the sister of British actress Rachel Ward and also has one brother and two half-brothers. Her great-grandfather, William Ward, 2nd Earl of Dudley, was Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in the early 20th century, and then Governor-General of Australia. He was the son of Georgina Ward, Countess of Dudley. Tracy Ward grew up on her father's estate at Cornwell, Oxfordshire. After gaining three 'A'-levels, she went to Paris as a model, and then to work at Christie's in London, and then worked in art galleries in New York. In her early 20s, she trained for an acting career at the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts (ALRA) London and the London Drama School. As an actress, she is best remembered for her role as Tessa Robinson in the 1980s television detective series C.A.T.S. Eyes and as the first Miss Scarlett in the television drama game show Cluedo. She also had a part in the Doctor Who serial Timelash. Her theatre credits include: Our Day Out (Nottingham Playhouse) and Intimacy (Cafe Theatre). On June 13, 1987, Tracy Ward married Henry Somerset, Marquess of Worcester, a farmer and chartered surveyor who is heir to the Duke of Beaufort. Prince Charles, Prince of Wales and his then wife Diana, Princess of Wales attended the wedding. They have three children, Robert, Earl of Glamorgan (1989), Lady Isabella Somerset (1991), and Lord Alexander Somerset (1995).
