FEW believed it possible when John Bishop announced he would be completing the 290 mile trip from Paris to London in just five days for Sport Relief 2012.
The mammoth task seemed even more unimaginable when it was revealed he would be cycling, rowing and running the route.
But he did it, along with some celebrity cheerleaders who joined him along the way, including Davina McCall and Frank Skinner.
