Feel free to correct me but in short:

C4 run a programme about a scruffy but loveable old man who spends every penny he has on his 'pet herd' of (reasonably healthy-looking) horses (which has got out of control re numbers) and whose living conditions look to be appalling. No history given, just puts him (CD) and his long-suffering spontaneously generous 'Angel of Mercy' (MC) in a very 'feel sorry for him and feel admiring of her' light.

It is aired and people on here at first go 'Ahhhh' (mostly), some go 'Ermmm' after a few minutes and others go 'Yeah, right' (and get called trolls).

Within a short while, motives for making the programme, the perspective from which it is it filmed and the characters and history of the two main personalities are called into question and soon after that, threads appear on HHO and FB.

There is a blindly sycophantic 'we believe everything we see and are told' group which WILL NOT under any circumstances (even when presented with hard evidence) hear of CD being anything other than a misunderstood horse whisperer and almost 'The Second Coming' (seen 'em coming more like).

MC (AKA 'Angel of Mercy') defends her (alleged) little cash cow (CD) to the hilt and all hell breaks loose, with threats of litigation towards those who raised questions and made reference to historic and known abuse of horses by CD.

By this time, there are a few threads on here, two FB groups running and a thread on Horse Gossip, most with links to vital and relevant information and pretty much all of it heated and pointing to massive bias and porkies presented by C4 and the CD/MC supporters

And lots and lots and lots of donations from (feed to furniture) pouring in from the hoodwinked.

Please please please can we slip Jason Statham in there somewhere? It's the only way I'd be able to recover from the scene of Bless Him in the bath! :eek:

Still think that DDFFSS should be sly stallions mum in a blonde wig.
