Charlotte duJardin just got mention on BBC1 10pm news

That's great news for dressage. Mainstream are finally acknowledging her fantastic achievement, even if it was just one sentence. But that's progress from before. And I still want to see her test. Can't find it anywhere.

Dang I missed it, but it's good to hear that. This is the best I can do, it's not great quality but doing the rounds on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=634463449911410

All the tests are here, this should be Charlotte

The show jumping and dressage medals have been quite frequently mentioned on Radio 5 sports reports too, which is a nice change

Highlights of the championships are on BBC2 tomorrow morning so hopefully we'll get her test in full then.

Thank you be positive (a good name!) have just watched it via that thread. She and he are such a super talented combination. Just gorgeous to watch. Made my night finally being able to see it.
Oh and Lexi, it's on BBC2, will try and get my recorder to catch that. Thank you.
We are blessed to have so many amazing riders in all the disciplines. Need to get the message out to more people. UK sport is not just football, hello media, (and our riders actually win things!)

They also mentioned women's cricket tonight, must be something in the water.

Ha ha silvermi. Anyone would think women were 51% of the population. And do sports. Quite well.
