David Walliams Thames Swim for Sport Relief - day 6 Maidenhead

See David Walliams on part of his Sport Relief charity Thames Swim.

We join David about a mile upstream from Boulter's Lock, Maidenhead. We see him take a rest during which his wife Lara Stone speaks briefly to him. We then see him enter the lock cut where the crowds are much bigger. TV comedy star Miranda Hart and David's wife Lara Stone are on a boat following him.

David swims in to Boulter's Lock to much applause and climbs out. He visits the lock house for break and to speak to BBC Radio 1. He then returns to the water and swims under Maidenhead Bridge. David swims out of sight as his approaches Brunel's Maidenhead railway bridge. He heads towards Bray and eventually London.
