Big Star: The Nick Skelton Story
Nick Skelton’s journey to becoming a world-class showjumper begins when, at just 18 months old, his mother buys him his first pony. From that moment on, Nick gains a passion that he will carry throughout his whole life. As a boy obsessed with horses, Nick leaves school at 15 to work for the tough coach Ted Edgar, a demanding mentor who teaches him the art of showjumping. Nick’s passion and grit pay off when he breaks the UK high jump record at the Olympia Horse Show, a moment that catapults him into the global spotlight. Despite his rising fame, Nick’s journey is fraught with personal turmoil- wild nights, a troubled marriage, and scandalous work disputes. His world collapses when a devastating accident leaves him with a broken neck, threatening not only his career, but his life. In true heroic fashion, Nick defies the odds when he stages an incredible comeback with his new horse, Big Star. Witness the incredible story that sees Nick Skelton leading Britain to Olympic Gold, triumphing not only in the group stages in 2012 but achieving his own life’s ambition of winning an individual Gold Medal in the 2016 Rio Olympics.PT1H35M2025-06-15Big Star: The Nick Skelton Story"Big Star: The Nick Skelton Story"Showtimes
