They were showing showjumping. Couldn't believe some of these riders are still going: Nick Skeleton, Paul Schockenmuller... they were at it when I was a kid.

We'd all collectively lift ourselves off the settee when a horse jumped a high Fence - particularly when we heard the clatter of hoof on wood. Strangely compelling viewing.
