Steve Backshall spoke at a sell-out event with queues for his book signing snaking out of the Royal Hall!

From making first ascents of Arctic peaks, and first descents of Himalayan rivers – he talked of narrow escapes and scrapes, plus jaw dropping tales of close calls with near certain death as well as lessons learned from his extraordinary year.
