Ellie Simmonds - a podcast by Tim Adams and David Wetherill

Ellie Simmonds – five-time Paralympic gold medalist, multiple world champion and 2008 BBC Young SPOTY – joins Tim and David at The Oval. Ellie reflects on Beijing as a 13-year-old, how she and David first met at the celebrations at Rio 2016, when Jonny and Alistair Brownlee served drinks behind the bar. The trio also chat about inspiring the next generation of women, and how Ellie's platform motivates her to do that.
