Gladiators Jet star Diane Youdale has revealed leaving the show was a "no-brainer" as she put her priorities in order.
The original Gladiator appeared on the programme for four years between 1992 and 1996, until she suffered a horrific fall which almost resulted in breaking her neck. But despite loving her time on the BBC programme, Diane, now 53, explained that she believes it was the right decision.
Diane fell from a giant pyramid on the programme and landed awkwardly on her neck after she appeared to have her contender in a rugby tackle during the untelevised scene in front of a live audience at the Old Wembley Stadium.
