The F***ing Fulfords is a 2004 documentary-style reality television programme directed by Norman Hull, shown in August 2004 about Francis Fulford and his family showcased on the United Kingdom's Channel 4 TV series Cutting Edge.[1][2]

The protagonist Fulford is the 24th in his family to have inherited Great Fulford, an 800-year old crumbling manor on a 3,000-acre (12 km2) estate in Dunsford, near Cheriton Bishop, Devon.[3][4]

In a later programme entitled Why England's F**** he raised some points about the decline of a sense of duty, a lack of responsibility and basic knowledge of England's history.[5]

The Fulfords returned to television in the six-part series, Life Is Toff, broadcast on BBC Three in autumn 2014.[6]
