00:00This is Rhonda Geary, Operations Director with the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society.

00:06Rhonda, you're holding the whole show together here. It's the first morning of Balmoral 2025.

00:11Can you give us a wee idea what the highlights are going to be today for the general visitors?

00:15Yeah, well as we kick off today on our first day, it's our beef cattle judging day. So

00:19if you're here and you have a look around our cattle lawns, they'll be full of the great big

00:23beef cattle, a real spectacle. And then on around to our sheep with a full complement of sheep

00:28classes today as well, really to get the whole show going. I mean, the livestock's out in full

00:33flourish. When you look in our main arena then this morning, we have our national show jumping classes

00:37and then international classes this afternoon. And the JCB Dancing Diggers, our main arena attraction

00:43this year, they'll be performing twice today as well on our main arena. 12.30 and 3pm. That's

00:48correct, yes. And we'll not neglect to give the dinosaurs mention? Absolutely not. I mean,

00:53you wouldn't know what you'll find at Balmoral between Wallabies over in our kids farm

00:56and the dinosaur display down at the Glen Park area, down beside the pigs and goats. That's

01:03a lovely display. And how are the pigs coping with the dinosaurs so far? I don't think they've seen

01:07them yet. So that might be quite interesting when they come out to play this afternoon. So just for

01:11anyone who's not in the picture, these are four full-scale dinosaur models, animated and with

01:16realistic noises. They are indeed, yes. It's just a sample of what's to come at the Glen Park estate

01:21in future months. Rhonda, thanks very much. I hope everything goes really well this year. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
