Walliams completes Channel swim - This is London

Excerpt:

Little Britain star David Walliams has completed his cross-Channel swim

The comedian spent 10 hours and 34 minutes in cold water to complete the swim - which he hopes will raise more than Ł500,000 for Sport Relief.

...The star said he had entertained himself through the gruelling swim by thinking of pop songs.

He said: "I was thinking about lots of Pet Shop Boys songs, Morrissey song and Abba songs, it helped to calm me down.

I was in the emergency room last night, where I had to hold still while a technician stuck a hook IN my eye, lacerating my cornea. The only thing going through my mind was "dear god, please help me," just that phrase, over and over and over again...
