BBC Radio Leicester's Dave Andrews and Monica Winfield have just won an Andrew Cross Award for religious broadcasting. The prestigious award was for a 'thought for the day' by Hitesh, an unexpected weekend reveller.
As Dave and Monica were recording their street pastors series they were approached by a young Hindu man with a verse from the St Matthew gospel tattooed on his inner arm.
It was about 02:00 on a Friday night, a small group of people had gathered around Hitesh and he asked to borrow a £10 note. He then spoke his words of wisdom.
Dave and Monica never got any details from Hitesh but if you recognise his voice, please ask him to get in touch with BBC Radio Leicester on 0116 2516688
