Creating 'The Lone Ranger' in Utah meant filming in 100-degree heat, covering star Johnny Depp in full face-paint as Tonto and shooting scenes out of helicopters to capture the stunning Monument Valley landscape. It also meant finding and training the perfect Silver, no small challenge when Horses don't always realise they're dealing with A-list stars. EXCLUSIVE CLIP: Johnny Depp finds out who's boss on the set of 'The Lone Ranger' - WATCH ABOVE The Lone Ranger features Armie Hammer as the eponymous masked man and Johnny Depp as his faithful sidekick, Tonto. Johnny Depp with his four-legged friend The Huffington Post UK first saw Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp filming in Monument Valley, Utah, back in April, with the help of a helicopter to capture the breathtaking huge rocks and vast landscape featured in the film. The finished flick, now in post-production, was shot over the course of 150 days and cost Disney a reported $250 million to produce. Who's boss, Johnny? Jerry Bruckheimer was the man in charge and the film also features Helena Bonham Carter, Tom Wilkinson, Barry Pepper and Harry Treadaway. The highly-anticipated flick is a big screen re-boot of the story that first appeared in 1933 in a wildly popular radio show which spawned an equally popular television show that ran from 1949 to 1957, as well as comic books. 'The Lone Ranger' is in UK cinemas from 9 August 2013. Watch the trailer below... ...

What is it about boarding schools? Readers and moviegoers can’t get enough of these homes away from home, where adolescents struggle and thrive, far from the peering eyes of parents. There’s something lawless and otherworldly about boarding schools – even when they aren’t called Hogwarts and populated by underage wizards. Boarding schools beget secrets and special alliances.

For anyone who loves Horses there is a great treat in the pipeline. The Guardian has reported that the BBC is planning a new documentary about the Queen and her lifelong passion for Horses. It will be presented by amateur jockey and TV presenter, Clare Balding, who is herself well known for her love of Horses. Her family has been heavily involved in racing, in particular training, so she will have excellent insight. Three generations of her family have been involved in training the Queen’s Horses. Most people realise that the Queen enjoys horseracing and owns some racehorses herself. However, many will be surprised to learn just how successful a breeder and owner the Queen is. Over the years, her Horses have won over 1,600 races, an amazing level of success. The fact she has been involved in racing for 65 years, also surprises many. The documentary will look at how her Horses are bred and raised. It will be fascinating for many horse fans to see her stables and how her Horses are managed. It is likely that the documentary will attract a huge range of viewers. Many people who love the royal family will watch the documentary. Of course, it will also attract many horse lovers. The fact that the documentary will provide an insight into the, normally closed, world of racing means it will be a ground-breaking programme. It also means that many racing fans will be very interested in the programme. Naturally, the Queen’s stable has many ...

How Horses Can Make You A Better Entrepreneur: Meet Jessica Baker

Jessica Baker spent years in corporate sales, a career she didn’t particularly love. There came a day when she finally hit her point of no return: I couldn’t stand going to the corporate environment anymore, sitting around board table meetings with people that were not being authentic. It was just like I had this completely visceral “I cannot do this anymore” response. Fast forward to today, Jessica helps healers and wellness professionals to create solid, profitable, sustainable businesses they love, and she does that using powerful methods that involve one of her most beloved things: Horses. Why Horses? She was already a lifetime horsewoman, a love affair that started when she was a child: People say “How long have you had Horses?” I’m like “Well, I was practically born on a horse.” My mom was pregnant with me, and while it was safe, was still working around the Horses with me. There’s pictures of me at 2 years old riding my horse by myself. When Jessica was clear that she had to leave corporate business, she knew only one thing–that she wanted to work with Horses–and from there, serendipity took over: I made a choice that I really wanted to follow my heart and do something that helped people and that worked with the Horses because the Horses were my love. I needed to be doing something with them… So I mentioned it one day to the barn owner–the woman where my horse, Magnum, was boarded–and she said, “You know, Jessica, with eve ...

Visiting the Past: London’s Working Horses

Did you know that those small brass decorations you see adorning the walls of London’s traditional pubs once decorated the harnesses of a workforce essential to the capital’s life and economy – Horses? In the 19th and early 20th centuries Horses were essential for all short distance transport in the capital. Drawing, among other things, buses and cabs, delivery vans, waste carts, fire engines, and working machinery. Horses were as much part of London as cars and lorries are today. In 1893 there were an estimated 25,000 carrying Horses alone. With a little digging, each London horse brass that survives can conjure up a lost world. The first railway companies, with their familiar London termini – Paddington , King’s Cross , Euston – owned their own Horses to carry goods to and from trains. In the early 1890s, the Great Western Railway Company, for example, stabled 500 Horses at Paddington. And many visitors to Camden’s Stables Market would be intrigued to know that its buildings once housed the London and Birmingham Railway Company’s Horses. Many London companies also owned their own Horses and stables, including breweries like Mortlake, Trumans, Charringtons, Cannon and Meux. After World War I, as motor vehicles replaced Horses, brasses began to decline. By the 1950s they had all but disappeared from London’s streets. Brasses are still produced, although as souvenirs rather than for working Horses. In 2011, the National Horse Bras ...
