Were you caught on camera at Hickstead?

I noticed how there were a lot of close ups of the outdoor stand and the members stand and just wondered if anyone was spotted in the crowd with the television cameras??

I am proud to admit that if you watch Geoff Billington's round, right at the start as he comes in and Mike Tucker shushs with his commentary, you can hear me shout 'Go on Geoff' really loudly!! With all those with access to BBC iPlayer it is around 2 hours, 4 minutes and 20 seconds

May not be a full on pic of me on the screen but it's still me being heard - probably quite fitting to me as a person if you ask anyone down my yard lol!

Lol at that although the other guy got on my nerves more, kept repeating same words and not very knowledgable about horses and riders really

Wasnt that Andy Austin? If so hes pretty much as knowledgebale as they came, very very good rider and trainer, and certainly knows his horses and riders!
 
Haven't a clue who it was but just seemed that there were a lot of mistakes towards gender of horse, not as much info as Hadley used to give for each combination and the repetition of the same words was annoying, almost like there was no commentary imagination. He had to be pulled up a couple of times by Mike Tucker for going a bit far. Not having a go at him as I think it's possibly his first go at commentating - never heard him before on TV - just pointing out a few things. Not originally a post about commentary anyway, just replying to what Shilasdair said
 
We were by the funnel out of the ring on a few shots early one. Had been lucky enough to be competing in the international arena earlier in the day! Other half keeps getting in photos, would never be able to deny his whereabouts!
