The triumph of mind and body over adversity. Not only beating a horrendous illness but managing this whilst sat atop 1 ton of powerful and unpredictable beast.

Proper job.

Seconded, though I think it may be giving her too much credit to suggest she's beaten her illness. Coped with it admirably and not let it beat her, but not beaten it.

Very impressed by that young lady. And a maths hotshot in the city to boot. Massive respect.

Medically, perhaps, but it depends on your definition of 'beating' in this context. My view is that she is not letting it set her agenda and she achieves despite it. She's beating it, for now, in my eyes.

Kudos Sophie. Keep doing what you're doing.

Totally agree. She's brilliant, and the ever-present smile is the icing on the cake.

Mr No Personality

Brilliant that Brownlee and Skelton got the recognition that they deserve for having some personality rather than being a mardy-arse git who couldn't even be bothered to be there

I think Murray has quite a good sense of humour, in a rather dry way. It might be a bit too subtle for you to pick up, being a northerner.
