The Olympic Gold Medalists keep coming, with Eilidh joined on Episode Two by the incredible Matty Lee!  Already a world class diver, Matty's profile took off when teamed with Tom Daley for the 10 metre synchro event at Tokyo 2020.  Inevitably, there was huge focus on his more illustrious partner, hence getting Matty on the pod to tell his own personal story of coming "out of the shadows".  Since Tom's Olympic debut, as a 14 year old in 2008, he's been on a journey towards Gold.  But it took the partnership with Matty to fulfil the dream.  And while Tom took most of the headlines, Matty knew his contribution was immense.  It was life in the shadows, to a great extent, but a life fulfilled when the final dive was executed, under immense pressure.  Matty then gained TV stardom when he entered the jungle for ITV's "Im a Celebrity..." and tells his incredible story, with several surprise twists, on this latest show in the series.  Out of the Shadows with Eilidh Mcintyre is in association with QuoteSearch and is produced by NinetyFour19.  Email us at outofthepod@outlook.com and follow on instagram @outofthepod.
