Here are just a few of the large team of colleagues it takes to bring the event to life for those watching the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials via our digital and TV channels. Event Director Hugh Thomas and Media Director Julian Seaman recently hosted a media lunch for those who produce content for our various media outlets, including the famous Badminton Radio which is streamed around the world. Hugh also toured the newly refreshed cross country course to plot the best camera sites for our BBC broadcast and the Badminton livestream productions.
