Fascinating piece. I know we only saw five mins footage for a whole afternoon of work but pony didn't seem stressed/distressed in the slightest and responded beautifully. Got a few tips for my babies too!

Do you know when it's on - I can't see it on this evening?
I've been waiting for this episode - Mike Branch is a lovely guy, and we spent a fair bit of time with him in May, culminating with sitting around an open fire, and Mike strumming his guitar and singing along, wearing his cowboy hat - a kids dream to have a cowboy in the house!

It was good to see the pony being handled in a quiet, sympathetic way. Slight, momentary wince at the "feel superior" comment, but very nice actions throughout. Good job, Mike Branch!

I've loved this series - and this was about my favourite episode, with the pony and the little chicks

very nice pony and nice long piece on the starting, loved it at the end with Laddie just letting him snuggle alongside him stroking his nose.
