<p>Jenny Nesbitt auditions for Braveheart about 23 years too late… we&#8217;re not even sure she was born when it was released. The blue and gold facepaint of the Team Bath athlete would have made William Wallace proud.</p>

<p>When he’s not tweeting about people cutting their toenails on airplanes Andy Butchart is a good lad. We’re not sure though if he realised a tweet about volunteering was a contractually binding agreement. Get your high-viz at the ready Andy.</p>
