interesting and I guess this has been on his mind for a long time .. shows that many immigrants, 'legal or illegal' have a lot to offer this country, given the chance and under the right circumstances Well done Mo for telling the story
Regarding the PED discussion earlier. For every dollar spent on drug testing, ten is spent on avoiding being detected in tests. Nearly all of the top athletes are on something.

I've read this 4 times now and still can't work out why it's been given a lol.

Me neither but sooo tempting to lol you. I have resisted and now virtue signal that fact
What an extraordinary story, what an extraordinary journey, what an extraordinary life and what an extraordinary man. A bit of a moist eyes moment from me.

This story is multi layered and a Rag to riches never the less. I will need to find out more before getting my head around the story.
Bizarre and probably not unique as there are probably a million other stories of trafficked folk from around the world who are in the UK, many being exploited but Possibly many degrees of success under new identities.
We hear about the people who died in the back of containers and upturned dinghies but the majority have been getting through for decades. Multi talented but also the not so desirable people.
For Mo Farrah to run with this news he knew the story was going to break so he wisely made sure it came from him. Why otherwise unless he knew multi millions would be paid by Hollywood ? Trumps Vardy story of jail to Premier League winner which was going to be made by the film Moguls.
It begs the question: if you are a sporting success you can lie about your passport but if you work 14 hours a day in a Kitchen every day we will probably deport you ?
A human story which will divide opinion; every story divides opinion so why not this one with a sports super star.

Next up, Gary Lineker how I shared a boat with Mo.
a couple who have been knighted under names other than their 'birth names' .. Elton John and Cliff Richard .. whether they were knighted under 'false pretences' is a matter of opinion and personal taste
What has this Kathy Gyngell done to make us feel proud to be British? In fact she has achieved the opposite effect with her words. Whereas Mo is a legend and has given us a lot of joy supporting him.
What an extraordinary story, what an extraordinary journey, what an extraordinary life and what an extraordinary man. A bit of a moist eyes moment from me.
Just watched it and found it an incredibly powerful documentary.
Showing again on BBC1 at 11 if anyone is interested

Elton John changed his name by deed poll many years ago. I think Cliff is technically Sir Harry Webb?

Pah!
I suppose as he has been Mo Farah for most of his life, to him that is his identity now.
