Channel 4 star reveals life-changing diagnosis after string of brutal injuries

FIVE years ago, comedian Adam Hills, who was born without a right foot, started a Physical Disability Rugby League team in Warrington, Cheshire.

He became so invested that he wanted to raise awareness about the sport and, in this inspiring documentary, Adam realises his dream of playing in the first ever PDRL World Cup.

“When I was a kid, the idea of playing in a Rugby League World Cup was pretty much impossible. Now I’m actually going to get my chance,” says Adam.

The 53-year-old trains weekly with his Warrington team, presents Rugby League coverage for Channel 4 and is an ambassador for the Rugby League World Cup.

“I don’t know how I became Mr Rugby League! I’ve put my comedy career on hold. I turn down massive gigs because it’s on training nights. Everyone around me can see how obsessed I am by it.
