Big Brother presenter Davina McCall and Little Britain star David Walliams will be in Shropshire as part of a charity bike ride to pedal the length of Britain.
A seven-strong team, which also includes radio presenter Fearne Cotton and comedian Jimmy Carr, was today setting off on the mammoth cycle ride from John O’Groats to Land’s End.
And as part of the trip the team, which is led by Mr Walliams and also includes Patrick Kielty, Russell Howard and Miranda Hart, will be passing through Shrewsbury.
They will endure a non-stop cycle relay to complete the 1,000-mile BT Sport Relief Million Pound Bike Ride.
They will have to battle the elements as they pedal hard day and night with the aim of completing the journey in around 80 hours.
Each of the competitors will take it in turns in the saddle.
