I was going to go to bed, but now I've found this I'll be staying up! There are not enough horsey programmes on TV!

That poor girl's arm was nearly dis-located by her mum hauling her back up after she fell off!

I'd love a lesson with Tim. That horse looked like a great schoolmaster.

Is it me or is it a bit of a slow programme?

It is taking awhile to get going. You dont see her doing much riding/ preparing for grass roots,

I'm really enjoying it. Lonely I think it is a series rather than a one-off programme.

I think I'm a similar age to Jennifer and I remember hero worshipping the famous show jumpers - David Broom, Alwin Schockemohle, Caroline Bradley, a Belgian Ferdy something. Never liked Ted Edgar or Harvey Smith though.

We are loving this, wished I had know it was on because I would have set the recorder for dd.
I really hope it is a series and not a one-off.

I think she is doing really well too. I could relate to her in the tack shop at Olympia ....smelling things..so true...funny.

Wasn't Badminton cancelled this year?

I should be HOME ALONE next Thursday night as I am working and DH is taking the kids camping.. I will actually get to watch it all.
