Equestrain Vision Launches Exciting New DVD 60 Years of Badminton

Equestrian Vision, the leading producer and distributor of equestrian DVDs in the UK, has just launched the fabulous new DVD, 60 Years of Badminton, which goes back to the first black and white footage of this thrilling event, spanning from the early days to the BBC's coverage of today's competition.

60 Years of Badminton is a historical programme and charts the visual history of the world's premier 3 day event.  In this DVD, interviews with the Duke of Beaufort, event director Hugh Thomas and 6 times champion Lucinda Green help tell the story of Badminton, which is rich in sporting achievement as well as in tradition.  The programme concentrates on the riders who have made headlines at Badminton, both winners and participants and Lucinda Green's amazing 6 wins are given a special chapter.  The Princess Royal's participation on Doublet and Goodwill in the 1970's are also given a special mention.  Ginny Leng, Ian Stark and Mark Todd made the headlines in the 80's and 90's and Pippa Funnell caught everyone's attention in the 21st Century with the unbearable tension in the show jumping arena as she and Supreme Rock won their second title on their way to the Rolex Grand Slam.
