In this greatest hits style compilation, John Clarke outlines the history of New Zealand's most famous farmer Fred Dagg: from describing Dagg's origins during Clarke's childhood, to the farmer's first TV appearance — duck shooting on Willis St — to hit albums and "accidentally" writing national anthem 'We Don't Know How Lucky We Are'. There are a feast of excerpts from Dagg's TV skits, plus 1976 concert A Bit of a Dagg. There's also extended footage of Dagg's classic Country Calendar episode, which Clarke singles out as being the happiest and "most successful expression of the Dagg ethos".
