    Ep 397 - Ian Watkinson - A Moment of Madness
    Feb 27 2026
    In this episode of The Paddock and The Pavilion, Stephen Wallis looks back at National Hunt racing of yesteryear, the 1960s and 70s, and shares some wonderful racing memories with former jump jockey Ian Watkinson. During a 15 year career in the saddle, Ian rode some of the true legends of the sport, the brilliant Flyingbolt,the mighty Night Nurse, the dual purpose superstar Sea Pigeon, and the explosive Tingle Creek. Ian’s story is told in his autobiography, The Going Up Was Worth the Coming Down, written by racing historian Chris Pitt. In Part One, Ian reflects on riding these outstanding horses before discussing how he began in racing and his early years as a jockey. Part Two follows with the glory days of his career, his retirement from the saddle through injury in 1979, and the next chapter of his life including time spent training in Australia, along with more amusing tales from the racing world.

    Feb 20 2026
    During my time down under, I met two England supporters who were living the dream watching every single Test of an Ashes series in Australia. In this episode, It Was Worth Every Minute, Ian Jones from Chester and Graham Pickering from York reflect on their unforgettable 50-day plus journey following the Ashes across Australia. We talk about the cricket, the different grounds and cities, the hospitality, and what it’s really like being away for that long. They also share what Christmas and New Year were like on tour, spending the festive period in Australia whilefollowing the Ashes. It’s a brilliant insight into life on the road following the Ashes, and a reminder that sometimes, if you can do it, it really is worth every minute.
