In this gripping episode, we explore the extraordinary life of Maurice Kirk, the eccentric and controversial figure known as “The Flying Vet.” Once a practicing veterinary surgeon, Kirk’s life took a dramatic turn following the loss of his license, sparking a decades-long battle with legal authorities. From daring landings in Jersey to seeking asylum in Alderney, Kirk’s story is one of rebellion, legal warfare, and relentless defiance. We unravel the key events behind his disputes with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, his numerous complaints to the European Commission of Human Rights, and the complex claims of corruption and systemic injustice that define his journey. A tale that’s as troubling as it is fascinating.
