‘I knew I was going to do everything I could, as best I could, I knew I wasn’t going to quit, but I thought I might just bite back and get thrown off the side or I’d get injured, but I knew that wasn’t going to happen stop so that’s all that really mattered to me.’

The annual Pride Of Britain Awards returned for their 25th year, with Ashley Banjo and Carol Vorderman returning as co-hosts. The ceremony will be broadcast on ITV on Thursday.
Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks were on hand to host the red carpet, while GK Barry presented online content from her own bar during the event.
The ceremony has been taking place since 1999 and honors the achievements of truly remarkable people from across the UK and all walks of life – nominated by members of the public.
After a shortlist has been drawn up from thousands of entries, the winners will be chosen by the Pride of Britain judges.
Before the ceremony, the King and Prime Minister Keir Starmer led tributes to the country’s unsung heroes.
The King called them ‘the very best’ among us, while Sir Keir said: ‘They embody everything that is great about Britain’.
King Charles’ words were included in a letter to King’s Trust Young Achiever winner Molly Leonard, whose grandmother cried tears of pride as she read it to her.
As well as praising Molly, he wrote: ‘On this 25th anniversary of the Pride of Britain Awards, I extend my deepest admiration to all of this year’s winners. You each represent the very best in our society.’
The Prime Minister told the winners: ‘Britain is proud of you. For a quarter of a century, the Pride of Britain awards have celebrated the people who embody everything that is great about Britain.
‘These are people from all walks of life, but they all have one thing in common. They are heroes.
‘They may not be the caped superheroes we normally think of – in fact, they look just like the rest of us. But they do have something that makes them very special. Courage, determination, generosity, empathy and a tremendous spirit.
“They have the power to touch our hearts, make us hopeful, make us proud. They are a testament to the incredible things people can achieve, even in the face of adversity.”
