Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley will be cycling through Bridport today as part of his Hell of a Homecoming challenge.

To raise money for Comic Relief, Tom is rowing, cycling, running and swimming to his hometown of Plymouth from Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London.

Today (Wednesday) is day three and he is cycling from Southampton to Bovey Castle in Dartmoor, passing through Bridport on his way.

The exact time of him passing through is not yet known, it is estimated to be from 1pm, but you can keep track of his progress with the interactive map here. He is currently coming into Blandford Forum.

He will enter the town on the A35 from Dorchester, and through the town centre along East and West Street before re-joining the A35 at Symondsbury and cycling towards Chideock.
