Boyhood Dreams and Adult Disasters - the extraordinary life of Ricky Ellcock
Fast bowler Ricky Ellcock was a teenage sensation, playing professional cricket at 17 and later getting an England call-up. A succession of back injuries cruelly finished his career at 25 but he then retrained as a pilot to become Virgin Atlantic's first-ever black captain. He had achieved not one but two boyhood ambitions. Then a freak accident resulted in a brain hemorrhage requiring four major operations. He talks to Simon Hughes about Balls to Fly - the book he has written about his extraordinary life - and what the next chapter might be. Balls to Fly can be pre-ordered here - http://rickyellcock.co.uk/
