Horsepower - not Horsepoer (I can't do two things at once)
Just in case you're on here and not multitasking with the TV, Martin Clunes Horse series is on now!!!
It will be on next week too...... Every Sunday, 9pm, ITV1
 
Really enjoyed it, not patronising, no 'class' issues, just alround family tv, entertaining, amusing and educational.
I say this after two glasses of wine and a round of buttered malt loaf.
 
I enjoyed it, but was slightly confused as to why he had to travel all the way to Dubai to see a racetrack - could have just gone to Newmarket to meet some racehorses, and seen an operation at the same time? Thought the horses on the beach were absolutely incredible
 
I thought this programme was very thought provoking, especially some of the things that Monty said. I will be rethinking some aspects of my riding!

Haven't seen them live but I liked them too - little gray is so cute! Think the arabs were my faves - and what glossy coats! Amazing!

ditto this

I really enjoyed it (I write this watching it online again at the same time!!)

Loved how its educational to the non-horsey and yet not patronising to us horsey people!

Really like Martin Clunes.

Can't wait for next week!

I thought the programme was brilliant. Informative, entertaining and showed a very likable side to Martin Clunes. I watched it in all its glory on ITV1 HD. I had to add the channel manually though, due to STV blocking it for those of us north-of-the-border. If any of you are in Scotland, and would like instructions on how to add it to your Sky channels, then please let me know via PM. Not sure if H&H would allow me to give them on here.
 
The programme was superb, excellent tv viewing for Sunday evening. Jean Francois was amazing, I have seen him over here at HOYS a couple of years ago and he was awesome. Gives us all something to think about when we are working with our own horses. All of them has a personality and once we have an empathy with a horse there is nothing else in the world like it. My daughter and I have arabians they are so intelligent and willing to please.

I have been involved with horses for over fifty years and have experienced working with many different breeds and disciplines and am delighted that ITV has produced this documentary with Martin Clunes. Well Done ITV! Looking forwar to next week.

BM - Al Karif Arabians :D
 
I had a tear in my eye watching those beautiful horses performing on the beach.

Martin Clunes was brilliant with a kind way about him.

I cant wait for the next episode, we need more programmes like this.
 
I really enjoyed it. I liked seeing the race place in Dubai also the trainer was honest and made me think. When asked why they run he said on the line of we have harnessed there fear to make fortunes.

Very thought provoking!

Look forward to next week (I didn't realize it was on again? Is it a series?

I will go have a look and series link to record just in case:)
 
I loved it, I thought the clips of the galloping horse on the beach were stunning. I never really liked Martin Clunes as an actor but in RL as in this show he is wonderful, his love of horses really shines through.

The only bit I thought was daft though were the clips with that horse woman
( where there were a few girls spectating )and the bay horse who was supposed to tune into his emotions I think. Didn't get that at all.

Overall great viewing.
 
I thought it was really good too! Jean Francois is amazing with his horses, he's coming to Chatsworth Horse Trials next May to do his display. I'll definately be going to watch him! (Hope you don't mind the plug but would be great to get as many people to see him as possible! Chatsworth is Friday 13th - Sunday 15th May and he'll be on every day!)

I thought MC and Chester really suit each other, such a good programme to have on tv, can't wait to see more!
 
I am thinking about starting a Facebook Fan Club for Chester, what a lovely horse.
LOL'd at Clunes comments about how much he loves Chester and sometimes he just wished Chester would acknowledge him etc. That is like me and my horse!
Great to see a genuine horse lover on telly doing a serious yet very enjoyable programme loved it!
Agree the therapy bit, was a bit odd, not sure about all that. But j'adore the rest! Impatiently waiting for next week.
