Mexicans who saved the life of a deep-sea diver who almost died from Covid are heading to Scotland to help him dance at his wedding. Davy Duncan will welcome his doctor, nurse and taxi driver to his ceremony in Fort William this Saturday, where a mariachi band will play traditional music from their home country.
And the 61-year-old is determined to take to the dancefloor himself after several strokes left him reliant on a wheelchair and undergoing a huge battle to learn to walk again.
Wife-to-be Helen Smith, from Fort William, said: “Davy is so determined and motivated and he is adamant he will dance at our wedding. He wanted to do it unaided but we will have to work something out. He might manage a few steps but someone will have to be behind him with a wheelchair in case his knee goes.”
