Sixty Seconds With Gareth Woodham


Sixty Seconds With... is back. Perhaps just for today. Perhaps longer. No actually, who am I trying to kid? It's just for today. And today we meet the British adventurer and holder of several endurance records, Gareth Woodham. Commonly referred to as the 'Ranulph Fiennes of Marston Moretaine', this is him. In his words.

You have caught me in the club with two lap-dancers on my knees. One might be female.


Silence is doing it poorly.

The last time I heard Mika, I was the DJ.

If it was any bigger than it is at the moment, I would have to get a firm in.

The one piece of advice I will offer is never to offer the author of this blog a job. He'll take it. Then leave. Then come back. Then leave again. Then come back again. Then leave again. Then come back again. Then leave again. True story.

To do good work is my life's ambition. I'll get there one day.

I have more athletic ability than the hours I spend playing Call Of Duty suggests.

Half way around this corner is a pub. So that's why I have decided to move the regional office again.

I wasn't there when I should have been. Which is why I am now here.

The definition of success is what Jonathan Lee will be doing in five years.

Ten years from now I want to be a lady of leisure.

I admire anyone who can carry four pints and a bowl of pistachio nuts all at once.

Did you ever see me as Mr T? No? Add me as a friend on facebook.

It doesn't take more than five minutes to add me on facebook. I seriously need more friends.

When I've finished this I will wonder why I agreed to it in the first place.

Sixty Seconds with Rachael Hodges


Rachael Hodges is a broadcast journalist at BBC Radio Five Live. She is also a part-time triathlete and will be competing for Bowel Cancer UK in the Mazda London Triathlon on August 2nd. In her own words, 'this triathlon is going to hurt', so if you want to help ease the pain then she very much welcomes sponsorship.

You have caught me at
...incorrect, I'm still not out. Unlike Australia's batsmen.

Silence is quiet.

The last time I heard a great new song was this week. Red Lipstick by Skint and Demoralised. Download it, it's ace!

If it was any choice of cocktail it would have to be a Bellini. You can never have too many.

The one piece of advice I will offer is to always unclip before trying to put your feet down.

To do good makes me feel good. Giving is a two way street.

I have more Chanel nail polishes than any other person alive. Or dead for that matter. FACT.

Half way around is half way there.

I wasn't there to watch Cardiff City play in the FA Cup Final last year. Everyone else I know was. It's a fact that still irks me!

The definition of annoying are the members of the MLOC. That's the Middle Lane Owners Club. You know who you are. Now stop it and move out of my way.

Ten years from now I'd like to be summering on a yacht and wintering in the alps. We can all dream eh?

I admire Lance Armstrong. I am trying to master my new road bike. It's given me a whole new respect for those guys on the Tour de France. One word - Awesome!

Did you ever see a cat walk on tinfoil? Me neither.

It doesn't take more than 5 minutes to sponsor me for the Mazda London Traithlon 2009 - www.justgiving.com/rachaelhodges2

When I've finished this I'm off to swim like fish at the lido.
Sixty Seconds with Paul Collingwood

Paul Collingwood is a professional cricketer. He plays for Durham and England. He is also a legend. You can read his blog here.

You have caught me at a good time. I've just taken my pads off.


No one is going to tell me that my highlights don't work.


The last time I heard Jerusalem was before the start of play.


People knock Ricky Astley around the park, I would do the same to Mitchell Johnson if he bowled at the stumps.


If it was any bigger, I would have middled that ball in the first innings.


The one piece of advice I will offer you is to not leave a straight one.


I wasn't there when Shane Warne called me the best player England have ever produced.


The definition of sledging is jelly beans.


Video killed Douglas Jardine's myth that the Australian's were impressed with bodyline.


When the balloon goes up it probably has a camera attached to it and will give you views of Cardiff.


Rock, paper and (Colling)wood.


I want to thank the other batsmen for giving me the spotlight today.


When I've finished this I am going to thank Ravi for taking that catch.


(Obviously this wasn't Paul Collingwood talking. He isn't answering his phone. I therefore used my creative license).
