I think it's sad that they stopped but it doesn't surprise me.
Sky would cover it anyway and I would imagine people who could choose between Sky and BBC would choose Sky because imo the coverage is so much better.
So I'd imagine the BBC aren't getting the numbers they need as half the people who would actually watch Hickstead are most likely watching it on Sky anyway.
OP make friends with someone who has Sky and invite yourself round to their house on Sunday!
Whenever there is something like this on TV we have all our horsey friends round to watch it. Is always brilliant fun, doing the same for Olympics as we didn't get tickets.
