Tom receives Pride of Britain Award

Richard Hammond flies in to tell Tom of his Pride of Britain Award. 

Tom had an unexpected visitor last week when Richard Hammond from Top Gear landed his helicopter on his farm.  With incredible bravery and foresight, Tom almost certainly saved his father’s life last year, when he drove a tractor for the first time to stop a bull attacking his father.  The story hit the national press and the Daily Mirror named him Pride of Britain.  He will receive the award at a glittering ceremony in London in front of Cheryl Cole, Freddie Flintoff, Gary Barlow and a galaxy of other celebrities.  However, the greatest reward is that his father has gone on to make a full recovery.
