Commentator's Choice

on BBC One London

A tribute to 'the voice of show jumping' Dorian Williams , OBE, Master of Foxhounds, who died last month.
For more than three decades his 'Oohs' and 'Aahs' helped many a rider over a puissance wall; or through, or perhaps into, the lake at Badminton Horse Trials.
In this programme, first shown in 1977, Hugh Mcllvanney talks to Dorian about his commentaries, and about life away from the microphone; schooling at Harrow, training for the theatre at the Guildhall, inheriting a prep school, and transforming the family home into a centre for adult education. (R)
