I am a self confessed lover of the previous 2 Thrills and Spills videos (they are so old mine are on VHS 
). So today I when I saw the third one in my tack shop I decided to treat myself . Well I have just watched it, and it seems to be one big advert for Point 2 . Now I am not starting up the whole Point 2 debate, but the DVD was not cheap and I feel a little shortchanged . It is less than 50 minutes long, and most of it is taken from other DVD's . The 'spills' part is less than 10 minutes at the end, and alot of those are used to show how the point 2 works, or they are of your local low level BE. I can think of some truely spectacular saves (Andrew Nicholson and Mr Smiffy spring to mind!) and some amusing falls of the top riders, and non of this is on. I guess I just hoped as they have 10 years of footage it would be better than it is, there is nothing on it I couldn't easily find on you tube if I wanted to .
