Another night, another injury, and last night on Channel 4’s < strong>’The Games’ was no exception.
As the girls were competing to win the speed cycling tournament, TV presenter Amanda Lamb tried to cut in front of fellow competitor Michelle Gayle. Too late she realised that she had come in too close, and as the bicycles have no brakes (how dangerous is that!) Michelle ploughed directly into the back of Amanda’s bike.
Amanda escaped unharmed, but Michelle was knocked from her bike and sustained some very nasty cuts and abrasions. Worse still because she failed to cross the finish line she received no points for the event. A sure kick in the teeth for such a competitive woman.
MP Julia Goldsworthy went on to win the race leaving the bookies favourite Javine to come in second place.
