THE World Clydesdale Show 2022 is proud to announce the appointment of Martin Clunes as show President.
As well as being a writer, presenter and actor, Mr Clunes is also an incredibly keen heavy horse enthusiast who took over as President of The British Horse Society on 1 June 2011.
Already known to millions from his stage and screen appearances, including Doc Martin, Manhunt and Men Behaving Badly, his 2010 ITV documentary series Horsepower revealed his passion for horses and latterly a second equine documentary, Heavy Horsepower, in 2013.
Martin owns two Clydesdale horses, Ronnie and Bruce, and knows first-hand the joy that these gentle giants can bring to owners, exhibitors and spectators alike at shows like this one.
Mr Clunes will be attending the 4 day long show at P&J Live in Aberdeen between the 20th and the 23rd of October this year. With over 300 hundred Clydesdale horses from all over the world and over 21,000 spectators over 4 days this is the first World Clydesdale Show to be held in Europe, let alone the UK.
