Show Notes
It is the summer of 2008, and a bride and groom have just stepped out of a carriage drawn by two white horses. The sun is out, the bridesmaids are wearing beautiful dresses, and everyone has drinks in hands. The day has gone smoothly for the wedding party. But for carriage driver Emily King – things are about to take a terrifying turn, as a chase begins.
Years later, Emily tells Dr Sian Williams how she fought to survive – and why the scarring incident gave her “superpowers”.
