Saturday LiveAvailable for over a year
Adrian Chiles is in the company of a talented trio on today's programme: Charlie Higson, writer, actor and comedian has enjoyed great success in television, not least with The Fast Show. And as a novelist the writer of the much admired young James Bond series has now published his first work featuring the grown up 007. Billy Monger holds the world record at Ironman as a double amputee, this after going back to motor racing following the calamitous crash which changed his life at the age of 17. Now he has an eye on the 2028 Paralympic Games. And Rebecca Coxon’s life was changed after curiosity about her family history led to a DNA test with results she never saw. Producer: Gareth Nelson-Davies Assistant Producer: Catherine Powell Researcher: Jesse Edwards Editor: Andrea Kennedy
