Red Carpet News talks to VIP guests including Olympic hero Derek Redmond at the launch of new Sam Bailey album Sing My Heart Out. Olympian Redmond talks about his own painful but inspiring Olympic experience 24 years after it caught the imagination of the world.

At the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona British sprinter Redmond tore his hamstring in the 400 metres semi-final but continued the race limping and, with assistance from his father, managed to complete a full lap of the track as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

Although Redmond was disqualified and listed as "Did Not Finish" due to the outside assistance finishing the race, the incident has become a well-remembered moment in Olympic history.
