Trick Pony Club

Documentary following Scotland's stunt horse team, whose members travel the UK performing exhilarating stunt shows jousting knights on horseback and appearing as gun-slinging acrobatic cowboys. Lances and swords, trick guns and period costumes are all staples for the team. Based on a farm just outside Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders, they divulge the secret to skilled stunt choreography and show-stopping performances. Some of the younger stunt riders are involved in common riding, an annual event in the towns of the Borders where hundreds of locals gather together for a horseback ride

Trick Pony Club airs on BBC Scotland HD (Freeview) at 7:30 PM, Sunday 30 June. (Subtitles, repeat, audio description.)
