Survivors of the Lambeth Country Show tragedy have spoken out about the extent of their "traumatic" injuries, following a terrifying funfair ride malfunction at Brockwell Park last June.
Nick and Alison Collins, who appeared on This Morning on Thursday 24 July, were critically injured when a funfair ride malfunctioned. "We were about to go home," Alison told hosts Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond, before explaining they accepted spare ride tickets from a passer-by.
After getting strapped in, Alison said: "Next thing we know, we wake up a few days – a few weeks later."

Alison sustained a fractured skull, a broken arm, clavicle, finger and "pretty much every rib". Both were rushed to hospital, with Nick spending two months at St George's.
The couple's experience was caught on camera by Netflix, which was filming Critical: Between Life and Death, a documentary that's available to watch now.
