I think it just puts life into perspective, you know
I think these are the unsung heroes of Great Britain
who change people's lives every day and for them to be honored in
an evening like this is is just a massive treat for them
but it's also for us. We look at them in awe, you know it's it's incredible
They're always stories about people who battle the odds and who have
achieved so much - genuinely achieved so much not just from
singing or juggling or having a dancing dog but from doing
from changing and saving people's lives you know you can't get bigger than that.
what I think have been
since we've started in the business every year except
the year I was out doing strictly which just didn't allow me to unfortunately and it's my favourite event of the year
I just love it. It's kinda one of those nights that you
know you're going to have an emotional rollercoaster but
incredible to actually meet such special people like you don't know who's gonna be on your table you meet
real characters and then and then you see that story and it's really special
I just think it's just a wonderful cause and it's so good to support these
brave people
and just showing up is just enough to show that and I wish I was presenting an award actually
we did that last time we came for its is a bit different being on my own
It's just me and Oritse representing JLS tonight
But of course Oritse's here with AJ, Rochelle's here with the girls so it'll
be nice to spend some time with the missus and my band mate for sure
What are you most looking forward to tonight? I'm most looking forward to seeing all of the
The stories as I said it's very inspirational tonight you get to meet some incredibly
courageous people
and it is what it says, it's the pride of Britain It's great to be you know British
and it's great to see the stories that people
come out today. Yeah it does keep getting better and better I think
we've been a band for 10 years and we've come a lot
over the last 10 years, I don't know exactly how many times. I think
as I get older I find it harder to watch without crying and getting emotional
I've got a hanky tonight
for tonight stories but yeah it's amazing is so inspiring is an amazing night we're
know we feel very privilege to be invited along to
you know to witness their the stories and hope to get to meet a few
the people as well it's always nice to meet them afterwards. Yeah, red carpet's alright you know this
this is actually quite chilled it's not too intimidating
everyone's here I think, well
we are to have have a good time and enjoy you know
amazing stories amazing people. Oh, it's from beginning to end isn't it i mean
get the hanky out right at the beginning and it's
sodden through I think by the end. I came last year it was extraordinary
it was like a really fun now so we think it's like seeing a weepy movie
is the closest I can bill you go back when you think
not gonna cry dishes can be fine and then you do cry and then you go feel
terrific about it
the world's not like it's fun this is so the humble red carpet this one
issue woke up and it was like in the picture animal sheltering
but in fact that we should really be here for us that science not known about
us
and every year we come here everywhere humbled
and every release several tissues and every forget
