Horse Programme - Martin Clunes
Horse Programme - Martin ClunesMissed first ten minutes of this programme, it was amazing. I've seen Monty Roberts a few times, saw Jean-Francois perform a year ago (that guy is amazing, he had 8 horses he was riding bare-back and had them jumping posts in two lots of four, how he got them to change from one group into two was amazing.
I had a lump in my throat watching this programme, would rate it 10 out of 10 (well if you love horses that is). http://www.freshstartforhens.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

For such a successful man, Clunes is so self-deprecating, always willing to learn. Wish there were more like him. Wouldn't mind his job, though!
Re: Horse Programme - Martin ClunesBluebell you are so right , just beaten me to the thread . Monty is looking his age now but to my mind what a guy. Never seen th french man before but he seemed to have exactly the right feeling for his equines too. Couldnt stand Martin Clunes when he was younger but give him a total thumbs up now , he did a similar prog about dogs and seems to be another chap who has genuine empathy with the animals he comes in contact with.What a pity the series only extends to 2 progs.
It will be alright in the end , if its not alright, it isn't the end .

Re: Horse Programme - Martin ClunesI missed the program but i have set a reminder for this weeks. (reserved use of english tv!! haha)
Slightly off topic............. I was so lucky to have met Lorenzo several times over the years at windsor and olympia when he was doing demos and i was grooming, A lovely genuine man, unlike a lot of 'famous' faces, he was genuinly interested in getting his horses ready and making sure they were ok, Spent a lot of time with them before going into the ring. Very approachable and friendly....... As for monty roberts i met him once and again a lovely lovely man. I once worked for a man that trained with him and used his methods to break horses to ride, Made the whole thing such a pleasure........ And a very heart warming way to do it, that moment when a horse joins up to you for the first time is like no other. Sorry for my ramblings.

Re: Horse Programme - Martin ClunesSara - I'm going slightly off topic as well, I think Lorenzo is fab, I am sure his first little mare he had was one he rescued from the slaughterhouse, when he was a youngster. The rapport he has with his horses is amazing.

Re: Horse Programme - Martin ClunesI really love Martin Clunes and although I am really not a horsey person, I watched some of this and enjoyed what I saw.
Some years ago, I saw him in a programme with elephants and he was simply enchanting. Helen xx

Re: Horse Programme - Martin Clunesanother entertaining programme , he really seems to love horses and isnt afraid to try out a new one. Thought he was going to have an involuntary dismount off his steed while dressed in armour as they did a rather sudden stop!
It will be alright in the end , if its not alright, it isn't the end .

Re: Horse Programme - Martin ClunesIt was good to see him being safety conscious and sticking his riding hat on
The wounded knee memorial ride was thought provoking, funny seeing a white man attend when it was the white man who nearly wiped out the sioux and other nations. http://www.freshstartforhens.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
