I've been looking forward to it all week!

ObviouslyInvisible · 16/08/2012 21:08

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?

alwaysinthebackground · 16/08/2012 21:39

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

bisjolympics · 16/08/2012 21:42

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.

Oh dear, I am watching this with pony mad DD and having a running comentary through out! goes to hide in bathroom

BehindLockNumberNine · 16/08/2012 21:44

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.

bronze · 16/08/2012 21:44

Watching it because dh went to school with the frenchs and he's nosy

bisjolympics · 16/08/2012 21:45

Just checked Radio Times. It is a two parter.

ObviouslyInvisible · 16/08/2012 21:46

A series? Oh I hope so! I'm having serious riding withdrawal symptoms (8 months pregnant).

I've had lessons with Joe Whittaker.
He is lush! and far to young for me!

horsemadmom · 16/08/2012 23:41

She was really quite good! Very impressed.

marge2 · 17/08/2012 09:21

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.
