To help deliver the 23rd staging of this key industry awards ceremony, we will this year be joined by Martin Bayfield, one of the most recognisable faces in British Rugby. At 6'10" Martin Bayfield was one of the tallest players in rugby, a gift he used to full advantage as one of England's most potent forwards. He enjoyed a successful international career, winning 31 England caps and two Grand Slams. He played in the World Cup in South Africa and was selected to represent the British Lions in New Zealand.
Since retiring, his height helped win him the part of Robbie Coltrane's body double as the giant Hagrid in the Harry Potter films, and he is now an established member of the commentary teams for BBC, ITV, Channel Five and BT Sport.
Places can be booked online at www.pumpindustryawards.com/book-tickets, and with a record number of tables booked already, it’s looking to be a great event.
