Hi,

I'm having difficulty in remebering a UK TV mini-series that was on years and years ago that was very good.

Here's what I recall:
There was a guy who was getting on in years (maybe 50s) who hooked up with a much younger black woman (maybe 30s).

There was a girl of around 16/17 years old who kept horses and was having an affair with (i think) the stable hand.

I can't remember anything else about the show although I think there were all kinds of other affairs going on. Not sure what channel it was aired on; though it would have been either BBC or HTV.

I'm sure it was a mini-series.

Please help.

Could it be "Trainer"?

I never saw it, but it's the only brief-ish series with a horses/stables connection I remember hearing of.

Sounds rather like Close Relations, a BBC serial broadcast here in the UK in 1998.

Starred Keith Barron, Sheila Hancock, Amanda Redman and Alice Krige.

That's the very one! Thanks for that - shame it's not been released.
