A student from County Durham has successfully made it to the final of SAS: Who Dares Wins and is the youngest female competitor to do so this year.
Paige Zima, 26, said she signed up for the show as despite facing a number of struggles and setbacks in life, 'nothing seemed to break her'. The tough mother-of-two lost her father to suicide in 2018, after which she made a promise to 'never lead a mediocre life' which spurred her on to sign up for the show.
Throughout the competition, Paige struggled with not feeling as physically strong as the other competitors. Ahead of the competition she would run up and down slag heaps in her village for an hour every day as part of the training.
