Antarctic crossing 'tribute' to Henry Worsley
A group of six army reservists are attempting to cross the Antarctic, a feat that only six people have managed before.
They reached the South Pole on Christmas Day and estimate they are about 20 days from finishing the journey.
Sergeant Major Lou Rudd, the expedition leader, told presenter Shaun Ley that the aim was "to make a tribute" to explorer Henry Worsley, who collapsed 30 miles from completing the first ever solo crossing in 2016.
