Actor Christopher Eccleston is to run the London Marathon in aid of the Big Issue magazine.
Having just turned 60, he said he will be happy to finish the course on April 21.
“The training has been going okay. I really stepped it up at the end of last year. I played Scrooge at the Old Vic before Christmas and that really helped because it was so physical.”
“He was on the cover in 1996 and has been a Big Issue Ambassador since 2020. We value his support of us and our vendors hugely and will be cheering him on from the sidelines.”
