Success

Episode 2 of 5

Ronan Keating travels across Britain to meet three people with extra-ordinary true-life stories, all of whom have achieved incredible success in their lives.

Ronan Keating meets three more people with extra-ordinary true-life stories who entered the BBC's My Story competition to win the chance to see their life story become a published book.

Travelling across Britain, Ronan meets three people who have each achieved incredible success in their lives. These include Jack Romero, who fled the war in Lebanon, and arrived in Heathrow airport in 1979 with just 90 pounds in pocket. Just fifteen years later, he launched an airline worth 30 million pounds.

Anne Wafula was born in a remote village in Kenya, and overcame childhood polio to become the first black East-African to compete in a wheelchair race at the Paralympics. Finally, David Crabtree went from living on the streets to owning a family care business worth millions.

The winner, chosen by a panel of judges, will be revealed at the end of the programme. The book will be available in bookshops from Wednesday morning, or viewers can download it free from the BBC website.
