The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band Equestrian Statue (1967)
London.
In this musical item, The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band play their song 'Equestrian Statue' from their first LP 'Gorilla'. Shots of them playing in what looks like London's Speakeasy Club are intercut with footage of an equestrian statue and the band running over a grassy hill (could be Hampstead Heath) in strange costumes. Neil Innes is seen dressed in a kind of concrete military hat and jacket with a fabric 'horse' beneath him, while Legs Larry Smith in a sailor suit 'whitewashes' him. C/U of Sam Spoons wearing a strange, wired head-contraption.
Someone in a monkey suit plays the organ (I'm not sure who this is - does anyone out there know?). Accompanying this harpischord-style instrumental break are several shots of the band in 18th century / Georgian costumes enjoying a banquet ...

Amy sculpting ‘Icarus’, a rearing Gunner from WW1, as part of the Arborfield Horses project
A sequence of time-lapses that show Amy making the War Horse 'Icarus', a rearing Gunner from WW1, in clay. Towards the end of the video, part of the moulding process is shown by the team at 'Ryman & Leader Sculpture castings'. This sculpture was part of the Arborfield Horses project, a monumental equestrian commission for client, Crest Nicholson. The three life-size horses consist of 'Icarus' a rearing War Horse from WW1; the mare and her 'Youngster' will gallop ahead of him once in situ. They will be unveiled in 2021 on the site of the old Arborfield Garrison where there was once a Remount Depot and Horse Hospital.

The Equestrian Statue of Marcus Aurelius - How to decode its History
The equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius is one of the most astonishing remains from ancient times. For almost 2000 years it has remained above ground and survived. This is the story on how to decode the statue. The episode is also the first part of an intended series about the emperor Marcus Aurelius (161-180).
Ancient History makes illustrated short documentaries about the history of the ancient world – from the beginning of civilization to the fall of western Rome. (However, I don’t guarantee that I won’t do some excursions to the Byzantines and other intriguing aspects.)
All narrated material is original unless stated differently. Anyone working on our scripts has an academic degree relevant for the subject. Photos are generally from public domain.

London.
In this musical item, The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band play their song 'Equestrian Statue' from their first LP 'Gorilla'. Shots of them playing in what looks like London's Speakeasy Club are intercut with footage of an equestrian statue and the band running over a grassy hill (could be Hampstead Heath) in strange costumes. Neil Innes is seen dressed in a kind of concrete military hat and jacket with a fabric 'horse' beneath him, while Legs Larry Smith in a sailor suit 'whitewashes' him. C/U of Sam Spoons wearing a strange, wired head-contraption.
Someone in a monkey suit plays the organ (I'm not sure who this is - does anyone out there know?). Accompanying this harpischord-style instrumental break are several shots of the band in 18th century / Georgian costumes enjoying a banquet - stuffing their faces and belching.
More shots of the band walking over the grass, some playing their instruments. Vivian Stanshall dances around with a large female dummy / doll. Towards the end of the number we see several very brief shots from previous Colour Pics; mostly of men on horseback, also from other stories in this CP issue, including the Bonzos' previous appearance with 'Music for Head Ballet'.
The line-up of the band here is Vernon Dudley Bohay-Nowell, Legs Larry Smith, Roger Ruskin Spear, Sam Spoons, Rodney Slater, Vivian Stanshall, Neil Innes and unidentified person in monkey costume.
Cuts exist - see separate record.

In this video:
This gives a pretty good account of the myth as it is generally stated, but leaving out the third commonly said option of the horse having both front legs in the air, implying the soldier died in battle. Another caveat is that if the rider died of complications from wounds received in battle, but at a later date from the battle, most versions of this myth have it that just one leg should be up as with the people who were wounded but didn’t die of complications from the wound.
